Abstract

ALTHOUGH Organ flue pipes are in common use and the practical organ builder can from long experience produce, purely empirically, a variety of musical tones, the tone-producing mechanism is at present obscure. So far, investigations have been made on the tones of pipes only in their finished condition, without examining effects of the adjustments made in 'voicing' the pipe; thus two articles which have recently become available, describing measurements of the steady-state acoustic spectra of pipes undergoing voicing operations, represent a more thorough attack on the problem and are very valuable.
