Note that it is the default Hauptwerk 3 setup (don't confuse it with the other Bach package I have created).
Licensed users of the Bosch-Schnitger sampleset will be able to use the registrations I used and
alter them. All others will be able to create their own registrations on different instruments.
These files are set to the default Hauptwerk 3 MIDI channels Pedal=1 Great=2 Swell=3
Choir=4 Solo=5 Echo=6 Generals and Utilities=7. In addition I used CH9 for tempo changes.
The Combinations in ForOrgan000227.rar should be expanded in a temporary folder and
added manually to the folder C:\Hauptwerk\HauptwerkUserData\Combinations\OrganID000227\
Do a backup first so as not to erase combinations you may have created with the same name.
To alter the registration, stop the MIDI file, turn on Combination Capture CTL-;
change stops; go to current frame CTL-down arrow key; turn off capture CTL-'
and proceed playing the MIDI. Save the new combination file under a different name.
If your MIDI player has a tempo control,(I use van Basco Karaoke player to play slower
or faster) you can adjust tempo to different rooms, samplesets, and your own taste.
While you're playing back a piece, say BWV529, the Trio Sonata in C Major, try exploring
different temperaments, which you can do as it is playing. Note that some change pitch
dramatically (anything with "Roetha" in front of it).
If you like to use shortcut keys a lot as I do, and maybe make typing misteaks as much
as I do, it might be well to familiarize yourself with the effects they can have. Click
any of the tabs at the top and a list will pop up. Moving the mouse over any other tab
to see other shortcut keys. Clicking on your keyboard's ESC key will make it go away. You can
check the status of some of them by looking at the bottom cells. In addition to Current
Frame, you can see the Transposer, Tuner, Temperament, Recorder, and Capture statuses.
Any two manual and pedal organ will play these files, but you will have to create the
registrations yourself. Usually they just use Banks 1 through 8, but sometimnes frames are
used when the number exceeds 8. BTW the Bank are groupings of 64 Frames. You will see the
numbers 1 - 65 - 129 etc. in the lower left part of the window when you push CTL-1, CTL-2,
CTL-3 etc. Pushing CTL-cursor right advances 1 frame, CTL-cursor left decreases 1 frame.
My suggestion is that you create a new registration file in your (2-manual) sampleset of
choice, add stops that you will be able to hear on each of the eight banks, play the MIDI
file, change registrations according to your grand plan. If the organ drops out, usually
at the end, you will see that a new frame has been accessed. Stop the MIDI file and make
adjustments. It will probably be based on the frame that precedes it. In a very few cases.
two frames or banks are accessed quickly so that, for example, a pedal reed can be added
or a manual that is not playing can be augmented or decreased in preparation for a manual
change. Save the results to a new combination file. I very seldom used couplers in these
files because of the "upside down" intermanual coupler. If playing back on an organ with
just one pedal stop or requiring intermanual or super-couplers to augment brightness,
you may be forced to new levels of creativity.

Be careful using the Tremulant with St. Anne's, Moseley - registration frames don't store
its state, only Swell Divisionals and the General Cancel do. Also, any button that makes
a tiny red light to the left of it won't be affected by either the registration sequencer
or the General Cancel. If you are very familiar with this instrument's stops, couplers and
divisionals, try calling up the left jamb or right jamb. Things are easier to read there,
On the right jamb is a way of controlling which divisions are affected by the crescendo
pedal. CR SW, CR GT CR PD. None of my files use the crescendo pedal.
I am not picking out St. Anne's unfairly, every sampleset will have its little peculiarities.
That's part of registration triage for organists on concert tours and in a way reregistering
a MIDI file makes you a visiting organist.
