St. George's Casavant Sample Set
for Hauptwerk™ Version 2 & 3
DEMOS

The sample set is predominantly dry and is suitable for playback in a space having a live acoustic, or in a less live acoustic as preferred by some. However the set has been optimized for playback using an external reverberation processor.

Most of the following demos are provided both wet and dry. Dry demos are provided so that potential customers will (1) know exactly what sounds they will receive from the purchase of this sample set, and (2) be able to listen to the dry recording in their regular listening space or apply their own reverb to the demos to hear how the set will sound using their own processing equipment.
