Thanks to all who took advantage of our limited-time offer to order titles from our back-catalog of Optigan/Orchestron discs. We had a good response, and will get started making the discs right away. Since these discs are hand-made, it will take a month or so to get everything ready for shipment. Your patience and continued support is very much appreciated! Look for new Optigan/Orchestron titles in the coming months!!

Do you think a Western/Hillbilly fiddle disc (with the fiddle notes on the white organ keys) or a South African style township jive / mbaqanga disc with lots of great grooves for partying would sell? Those surely would be fun to listen to.

I have just realised today that the house I am clearing has an Optigan! It was when I found the disks and googled your site that the truth dawned.
I think it works too! All I have to do now is to try the discs in it, I am all most sure I will find the original instructions as nothing was thrown away in this house…
I am in Australia, I have to sell it, any ideas anyone?
Thanks, puzzled of Melbourne!

I had a crazy idea for one that would be a cross over disc tribute featuring the Mellotron.
on keyboard: one octave mellotron flutes, one octave mellotron strings, one octave mellotron choir.
rhythm buttons: chamberlin melody #1 for majors, chamberlin melody #2 for minors, chamberlin melody #3 for dim
or your chamberlin rhythmate for drums 1-5 and all the majors, minor, dim that gives you 24 different drum beat patterns.
