A legendary Organ built by the master Henry Willis, in a legendary London venue;
大师亨利·威利斯(Henry Willis)在传奇的伦敦场馆建造了一架传奇的风琴;

the beautiful Union Chapel.
美丽的联合教堂。

From angelic soft delicacies to roaring thunder, this instrument is one of the finest examples of 19th Century craftsmanship in the world, and gives you a Symphonic Orchestra of tones at your fingertips.
从天使般的美味佳肴到轰鸣的雷声,这是世界上19世纪工艺的最好的例子之一,让你在指尖就能感受到交响乐的音调。

The Organ at London’s Union Chapel was built by Henry ‘Father’ Willis in 1877 specifically to match the size and acoustics of the building and is undoubtedly one of the finest in the world.
伦敦联合教堂的风琴是由亨利·威利斯神父在1877年专门为配合教堂的规模和声学效果而建造的,它无疑是世界上最好的风琴之一。

Henry Willis who is regarded as the foremost organ builder of the Victorian era also built the organs at the Royal Albert Hall and St Paul’s Cathedral.
被认为是维多利亚时代最重要的风琴建造者的亨利·威利斯也在皇家阿尔伯特音乐厅和圣保罗大教堂建造了风琴。

The Union Chapel Organ remains essentially unaltered.
联合教堂风琴基本上没有改变。

The only significant changes have been the replacement of the Choir Gemshorn 4ft by a 2ft Piccolo in 1909, the provision of electric blowing in the 1920s, and the installation of a balanced swell pedal in the 1940s.
唯一的重大变化是1909年合唱团用一个2英尺长的短笛取代了4英尺长的短笛,在20世纪20年代提供了电吹风,在40年代安装了平衡膨胀踏板。

As an important example of ‘Father’ Willis’s work, in 2012-13 the organ was fully restored by organ builders Harrison & Harrison based on historic principles.
作为“父亲”威利斯作品的一个重要例子,在2012-13年,器官建造商Harrison & Harrison根据历史原则对该器官进行了全面修复。

The original hydraulic blowing engines (water powered) have also been restored to working order by James Richardson-Jones and are retained as an alternative to electric blowing (one of very few left in the world!).
詹姆斯·理查森-琼斯(James Richardson-Jones)也恢复了原来的水力吹气发动机(水力)的工作秩序,并保留了它作为电吹风(世界上仅存的为数不多的一种!)的替代品。

It has three manuals, Swell, Great, Choir, and a full pedalboard.
它有三种操作手册,Swell, Great, Choir和一个全踏板。

Since the restoration Union Chapel have been running a diverse concert programme around the organ including a brand new experimental organ festival launching in 2016.
自修复以来,联合教堂一直围绕管风琴举办各种音乐会,包括2016年推出的全新实验管风琴节。

These concerts of all genres continually demonstrate how versatile the organ can be and that it is not simply a church instrument, but in fact the world’s first synthesiser which can be incorporated into most genres of music.
这些各种类型的音乐会不断地证明了管风琴是多么多才多艺,它不仅仅是一种教堂乐器,事实上它是世界上第一个可以与大多数音乐类型结合的合成器。

BACKGROUND
背景

Spitfire co-founder Paul Thomson grew up sat on the organ stool.
喷火战斗机(Spitfire)联合创始人保罗•汤姆森(Paul Thomson)是坐在风琴凳上长大的。

From playing in churches before he could reach the pedal board, to practicing at night locked alone in Worcester Cathedral as a teenager, he has always had a soft spot in his heart for this instrument.
从他还没能接触到踏板板就在教堂里演奏,到十几岁时独自锁在伍斯特大教堂里练习,他一直对这种乐器情有独钟。

So after finding the perfect organ to sample this became a pet project.
所以在找到了完美的器官样本后,这就成了一个宠物项目。

The organ is like an orchestra, from charming flutes to trumpets and trombones, with many interesting harmonic mixtures and options for voicing.
管风琴就像一个管弦乐队,从迷人的长笛到小号和长号,有许多有趣的和声混合物和发声选择。

You can set up different sounds on the manuals and pass from one to another, or combine them for a greatly amplified sound character.
你可以在手册上设置不同的声音,并将其传递给其他玩家,或者将它们组合在一起以获得更大的声音效果。

“The humble organist can have an orchestra of a thousand voices” – Marie Alain
“一个不起眼的管风琴手可以拥有一个由一千种声音组成的管弦乐队”——玛丽·阿兰

Paul and his colleagues at Spitfire waited a long time before selecting the organ they wanted to sample, and the timing was perfect with the restoration and the collaboration with the Union Chapel.
“喷火”乐队的保罗和他的同事们等了很长时间才选择了他们想要的风琴样本,而这次修复以及与联合教堂的合作,时机恰到好处。

They started the project back in 2013 and many hours were spent during the night recording!
他们早在2013年就开始了这个项目,晚上花了很多时间录音!

This instrument has bags of character and can go from extraordinarily soft and delicate to full thunder and power while never sounding slightly synthetic or brittle like some of the later instruments.
这种乐器有自己的特点,可以从非常柔软和精致到饱满的雷声和力量,而不像后来的一些乐器听起来有点合成或脆。

As an instrument, the pipe organ has featured in many films and on many albums over the years, a sampling includes most recently Interstellar, Rollerball, 2001 A Space Odyssey, many of Danny Elfman’s scores including his two Batman offerings, Koyaanisqatsi, The Omega Man, Interview With a Vampire, Patton and The Godfather.
作为一种乐器,管风琴已经出现在许多电影和多年来在许多专辑,抽样包括最近星际,Rollerball, 2001太空漫游,Danny Elfman这样的许多成绩包括他的两个蝙蝠侠,《机械世界》,ω的男人,一个吸血鬼的采访中,巴顿和教父。

As a bonus feature Spitfire’s team of sound designers have created 10 eDNA presets using the raw materials of the Organ, which have most recently featured in the 2016 Paul Feig reboot of Ghostbusters, plus a Dev Kit for the user to create their own unique Synths, Basses, Atmospheres and Rhythmic pulsing patches.
的喷火式战斗机的团队奖金功能声音设计师创造了10埃德娜预设使用的原材料器官,最近出现在了2016年的保罗•切尔重启捉鬼敢死队,加上开发工具包为用户创建他们自己的独特的作品,低音提琴,大气,有节奏的脉动补丁。
