Accompaniment Manua1_ at 8', 4', and 2', and on the Pedal
at 16' and 8'.
Loud Flutes are often called Tibia:s, which
was the characteristic "weeping" Flute stop on theatre pipe
organs.
STRINGS
These voices are imitative of the string family such as
the Violin, Cello, and String Bass.
These can be either
solo voices (SOLO VIOLIN) or ensemble voices (blending
voices) such as the Cello on the Accompaniment Manual.
REEDS
These voices are so named because in a pipe organ they are
produced by a reed hitting a block of metal. and the vibra-
tions carried up a tube called a resonator.
Such voices
as the Trumpet, Clarinet, Saxophone, French Horn, Vox
Humana, etc., are reed voices.
The Vox Humana is best
use'd as an ensemble (blending) voice most commonly combined
with the Flute voices of the same pitch.
All other reed
voices are best classified as solo voices.
--NOTE:
All the Flute voices of each division are grouped
together for easier identification.
