Bridging the gap

There are many reasons the Vivaldi is unparalleled. Let’s start with its most important advantage. As an experienced organist, you are accustomed to playing imposing instruments. When you come home after a day of rehearsals, there’s such a huge difference between that spectacular sound and your home organ that you can’t bring yourself to play it for at least an hour. Sound familiar?

Or you’re a passionate amateur organist who plays for the sheer fun of it. Ideally, you’d love to spend every day at the keys of a gorgeous pipe organ… but such a magnificent instrument is simply not available to you. With the Vivaldi 270 and 370, Johannus has bridged the gap between the pipe organ and the digital home organ once and for all. The instrument combines revolutionary technology with a breathtaking sound spectrum. Whether you need it for professional rehearsal or practicing in private, you no longer have to leave the comfort of your own home. In fact, you could even hold concerts and recitals in your own living room!

Twelve unique reverbs

The new two-manual and three-manual Vivaldis are based on an advanced music technology concept. The phenomenal sound produced by these organs is generated by Real Time Sampling, the best technology for reproducing the original sound of a pipe organ. What you hear isn’t digital sound; instead, you get an authentic pipe organ timbre. Thanks to the integrated LIVEreverb system, it can even convey the acoustics of a resounding basilica. Choose one of twelve unique reverbs, from famous cathedrals and intimate chapels to modern churches.

Integrated speakers

The Vivaldi 270 and 370 include the elegant Johannus audio system. Although the Vivaldi 270 has fifteen speakers and the Vivaldi 370 has nineteen, we managed to integrate them all into the organ console itself, making external speakers completely unnecessary. The system brings the organist into both the presence and the enveloping power of the pipe organ.

Orchestral voices

Realistic Real-Time Sampled orchestral voices add a new dynamic music. Besides its 60 regular organ voices, the Vivaldi 370 includes a broad spectrum of additional orchestral voices, including a harp, a trumpet, a carillon, a gospel organ, a piano and strings. The 42 organ voices of the Vivaldi 270 have also been enhanced by the addition of orchestral voices. The high-quality integrated tweeters ensure that each individual instrument sounds its very best. The Vivaldi continues where the pipe organ leaves off.

Four sample sets

But it gets even better! With the new Vivaldi, the organist has not one but four organs at his disposal. Both models come with four complete sample sets: American classic, symphonic, baroque and historical. The Vivaldi presents a subtle convergence of American and European musical traditions.

Immutable quality

And that brings us back to where we started: the Vivaldi is an organ that builds bridges, seeks convergence and cohesion, combines possibilities. All these aspects unfold within the immutable quality standards offered by Johannus. Vivaldi continues where the pipe organ leaves off.
