"My main concern is not the cosmetic side of a console but the actual connection of player to instrument. Touch and action are of paramount importance. What it is clothed in doesn't interest me in the slightest, nor would it have done to somebody such as Langlais, I suggest. \nPlayers today seem to rely constantly upon pistons and steppers. Hand registration seems not possible on large instruments these days (from what I have seen) so the actual comglomeration of rows and rows of stops almost seem superluous. I view some American instruments (for an immediate instance), that a fleeting pull of one necessary stop, is like plucking a sapling from a forest. Has modern technology allowed the instrument to become an un-manageable beast without endless aids to control it? \nN. "
