Hi!

You said in the repo that people could contact you with questions, but i didn't see any contact info so i'll do it here :)

I'm planning on bulding a small (1.5 - 2 octaves, one rank) organ based on PVC pipes, and have tried to design my own mouthpiece for 1/2" to 1.5" diameter pipes, but haven't been able to get the sound i want from them (they are usually not as loud as the ones i've made out of wood in a similar size). Do you have any recommendation on which of your design worked best for pipes that size, and any tips on simple pitfalls when designing them?

What did you base the theory for your pipe calculator on? I'm allways looking for more resources to learn from

Any recommendation on which air pressure I should aim for (approximately)?
