Principal chorus drawn on the Hauptwerk, possibly with choruses from other divisions coupled in
Chorus reeds drawn on pedals but not manuals
Mixtures and 5th sounding stops included; Terz not included
16' manual stops often included (Schnitger)
Octave sounding flute ranks often included (Silbermann) like French Plein Jeu
Mattheson said terz was ok--can help distinguish voices--but not with flutes
18th c. plenum was heavier and thicker than 17th c--weight replaced brilliance as the ideal |
