"Organy w kosciele dominikanów w Lublinie"/"The organ of the Dominican church in Lublin"
The 20-voice organ was rebuilt in 1885, 1893, 1904, and 1973.

You could, for instance, use one DSP chip to play back eight different monophonic parts such as snares and basses, and another for a single 16-voice organ or piano patch.

Using pipes from the former organ gave us the luxury of two independent Pedal stops making a total of five 16' stops in a 20-voice organ!
