All Saints Church, Aston-cum-Aughton, Sheffield
The ancient church of All Saints now has an instrument perfectly suited to the unusual acoustic properties of the building. The previous small two manual pipe organ sounded well in the chancel but could only be heard with great difficulty in the Nave. The new Eminent Positive organ has built-in speakers as well as a set of speakers high up on the arch of the West end tower. The organist may switch speakers or use both at the same time with full control from the console. The console is equiped with full moving drawstops and pistons for Swell and Great as well as 8 general pistons
