The ideal case is every C, Eb, F# and A, but it's not always essential to have them all. A representative set, 10 seconds for each note with 10 seconds between them. The latter is to estimate the background noise and reverb. Try to get close to the organ (the less reverb the better), but not so close that the balance between the notes would be modified. Use one microphome position for all pipes. > 4. Would someone be willing to analyse the recordings > and evaluate the parameters? I would ! For the final tuning by ear, having a recording of some music using that stop (only) is very useful. Even more if we also have a MIDI file for it.
