Package details
GENPO is the GENeral Purpose Organ.
It is a program which replicates the essential features of any pipe,
theatre, or reed organ.
GENPO reads a description of an organ (a .org XML file) and presents
a suitable user interface for operating that organ. There are a
number of high quality organ SoundFonts freely available and the .org
file maps the stop sounds to organ manuals and stops. Other
facilities such and couplers and presets are available. You may
connect one or more MIDI keyboards to GENPO to provide the organ
manuals, you can even assign one to be the 'pedalboard' if so
desired!
GENPO is free, Open Source software.
The program was written as a result of the author trying some other
'virtual organs' and having a hard time either getting them
installed, or using them. The philosophy behind the progam is that
of ease of use combined with full functionality. GENPO does not try
hard to look exactly like an organ console - but an organist should
feel instantly at home when presented with the console.
Before starting genpo you must load a SoundFont into the wavetable
synthesizer on the sound card!
