I was at the local electronic store (Circuit City) and I played through
all the organ styles on their keyboard.  It was a big and expensive one
with 15-types of organs.

Most of them, however, were all labeled, "70's rock organ", "70's rock
organ 2", "70's rock organ 3", etc.  Even their "pipe organ" was AWFUL!
I had a keyboard with 100 instruments on it in '91 and that thing had a
really great pipe organ synthesized.

Anyway, I didn't find anything which sounded close to a theater organ.
Is there a MIDI application or some sort of computer-generated theater
organ sound?
