鹿特丹的这座大型哥特式教堂建于15世纪，于1525年竣工。四百年后，在1940年5月的德军轰炸中，它几乎被摧毁。圣殿内部因火灾全部损毁，只剩下外墙和部分塔楼。第二次世界大战后，教堂于1947年至1968年间进行了修复。

最初的教堂里有一架汉斯·戈尔特富斯于1644年制造的大型三键管风琴，但1790年，一件新乐器取而代之。新乐器的制作直到1828年才完成，期间几位管风琴制造者陆续对其进行了改进。1845年，贝茨将这架乐器的音栓扩大到72个。然而，这架乐器在战争期间与教堂一起被彻底摧毁。我们今天在教堂里听到的这架大型管风琴是由Marcussen & Son公司于1973年制造的，琴箱由建筑师J. W. Besemer设计。这架乐器基于32英尺长的踏板，由六个部分组成（Rugwerk、Hoofdwerk、Bovenwerk、Borstwerk、Chamadewerk和Pedaal）。它是一架完全机械化的管风琴，拥有85个音栓和约7600根音管。据说它是欧洲最大的纯机械管风琴。然而，当所有键盘连接在一起时，它配备了一个可以通过脚踏杆选择性开启的Barker装置，以帮助管风琴师。然而，即使没有这个装置，整架乐器也能很好地演奏。

这架乐器的一个显著特点是其多级主音音栓。几乎所有部分的主音和16'、8'、4'八度音阶都由多个同音音栓组成。我第一次在西班牙管风琴（帕尔马迪马略卡、桑塔尼……）中听到这种特殊音色，它使主合唱部分的声音变得相当宽广深沉。音色变得饱满饱满，这在使用传统的单级主音栓时难以实现。对于Hauptwerk管风琴的录音来说，这构成了一个特殊的挑战，因为管子经常不完全调准，产生的"合唱效果"使得循环非常困难。只有非常长的样本（大约9-11秒）才可用于管风琴的虚拟模型。另一个值得注意的特点是混音的构成，其音级数量也异常高。Bovenwerk的Cimbal以其新巴洛克风格的构成而引人注目，包括一个四重奏和一个六重奏。

一位测试用户评论道："这架管风琴色彩绚丽，音色出奇地柔和。所有音色都丝毫没有刺耳或刻意的推挤感。相反，我们听到的是双级主音音栓和大量的混合音色，以及多级柔和的音色管道，最终呈现出自然流畅的音色。在更丰富的合奏中，这架管风琴会发出咆哮声，但绝不会发出尖锐的尖啸——即使是在演奏chamades的时候。即使戴着耳机连续演奏数小时，音色依然优美舒适。"

这架管风琴的设计理念是能够演奏所有管风琴作品。事实上，丰富的音栓、完整的水平簧片组、法式簧片、渐变箱中的琴弦、丰富的宽音阶变奏选择、完整的主音金字塔结构、踏板上全音域的音栓——这一切都令人梦寐以求。起初，我对法国双簧管的缺失感到困惑，甚至想过虚拟添加一个。但后来，听了管风琴家Hayo Boerema先生在鹿特丹管风琴录制的CD后，我确信没有必要添加。带纳萨德的圆润小号可以作为令人信服的替代品。因此，从文艺复兴时期、巴洛克时期、浪漫主义时期到现代的各种管风琴作品都能在这台乐器上充分演奏。

要求
Hauptwerk版本

该采样集可在Hauptwerk 4.2及更高版本中使用，由于虚拟乐器的大小，需要高级版本。采样集的1.45版本于2021年6月发布。多个子组件已于2022年2月更新至1.46版本。

The large gothic church of Rotterdam was built in 15th century. The church was completed in 1525. Four hundred years later it was almost destroyed by a German bombardment in May of the year 1940. The interior of the sanctuary was entirely lost due to fire. There were left only the outer walls and a part of the tower. The restoration of the church was done after the World War, between 1947-1968.

The original church had a large 3 manual organ of Hans Goltfuss from 1644, but a new instrument was to replace it in 1790. The work on the new instrument was not finished before 1828 while several organbuilders successively worked on it. In 1845 Bätz enlarged this instrument to arrive at 72 stops. Nevertheless, this instrument was destroyed completely with the church during the war time. The large organ which we can hear in the church today was built by Marcussen & Son in 1973, the organ case was designed by the architect J. W. Besemer. The instrument is based on 32-foot pedal, it consists of six divisions (Rugwerk, Hoofdwerk, Bovenwerk, Borstwerk, Chamadewerk and Pedaal). It is completely mechanical organ with 85 speaking stops and ca. 7600 pipes. It is said to be the largest purely mechanical organ in Europe. There is, however, the Barker mechanism to be switched on optionally by a foot lever to help the organist when all the manuals are coupled together. However, the full instrument can be operated without this device very well.

One striking feature of the instrument is its multi-rank Principal stops. Practically all the Principals and Octaves 16', 8', 4' of all the divisions are made of more than one unisono souding ranks. I have heard this special feature in Spanish organs for the first time (Palma di Mallorca, Santanyi ...) and it makes the sound of the Principal chorus considerably wide and deep. The timbre gets characteristically rich what cannot be achieved easily if a conventional single rank Principal stops are used. For Hauptwerk recording, this constitutes a special challenge, since the "chorus effect" of the pipes which are often not exactly in tune makes looping really difficult. Only very long samples (around 9-11 seconds) are usable for the virtual model of the organ. Another noteworthy feature is the composition of the mixtures which have unusually high number of ranks as well. The Cimbal of the Bovenwerk is remarkable for its neo-baroque composition including a quart and a sext.

A beta tester comments: "This is a remarkably colorful and beautiful organ whose sound is surprisingly gentle. None of the voicing feels harsh or pushed. Instead, we get double-rank principal stops and large mixtures with many ranks of gently-voiced pipework that result in a natural, unforced sound. In fuller ensembles, the organ roars, but it never screams - even when the chamades are playing. The sound remains beautiful and comfortable even when played for several hours in headphones."

The organ was designed to allow the performance of all organ literature. Indeed, the plenitude of stops, the complete set of horizontal reeds, the French type of reeds, strings in a swell box, rich selection of wide scaled mutations, complete Principal pyramid, full range of stops in pedal - it is all one can dream of. First, I was puzzled by the absense of the French Oboe and I had even thought of adding one virtually, but then, listening to the CDs recorded at the Rotterdam organ by Mr. Hayo Boerema organist-titulaire, convinced me that that such an addition is not needed. The swell trumpet with a nasard can be used as a convincing substitute. Thus, wide range or organ literature from Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism up to the modern times can be performed adequately on the instrument.

Requirements
Hauptwerk version

The sample set can be used in Hauptwerk version 4.2 and higher, the Advanced version is necessary due to the size of the virtual instrument. Version 1.45 of the sample set published in June, 2021. Several subcomponents were updated to version 1.46 in February,2022.
