A few links to information, products, manufacturers and other projects.

The most important link is this one:
Raphi Giangiulio’s Homemade Pipe Organ
Raphi is my muse in this project! He showed me that this could be done at home, and provided a lot of info and insight. Thank you, Raphi, for your help and for sharing your project with us!

2026 note: Raphi has taken his website down, and the domain is no longer active. I have managed to save most of his website from the Internet Archive. I am trying to contact him to ask if I can host those files on this website, to keep all that information preserved.

Hardware and software:

• Hauptwerk – the Hauptwerk software. Be sure to check out the DIY forum!
• Milan Digital Audio – the Hinz, E.M. Skinner and Cavaillé-Coll organs
• Lavender Audio – the Binns / Haverill organ
• Organworks – makes pedal boards, keyboards and a lot of organ hardware suited for Hauptwerk.
• Midiboutique.com – affordable and easy solutions for most MIDI needs; I used them for my pedal board.

Other projects:

• “Yet another organ pedal board project” (midi-fying an used pedal board, making a console)
• Ilya Sivkov pedal board (made a pedal board from scratch using pinewood. Cute cat!)
• Pcorgan.com – has a nice gallery of other homebuilt projects

Any links missing? Please let me know by sending me an email!
