"Look mum no computer" on Youtube is wrapping up a series[0] where he bought an old church organ and rebuilt it. He cleaned it up and rewired it to interface via midi as well as the console.

Old chruch organs can often be had for 'free'. Many churches arw throwing them away. Free is in quotes because often you can't remove it yourself and so it will cost tens of thousands of dollars to remove it. If you can remove it yourself you will discover professional movers are not getting rich charging that much labor to remove them.

The biggest problem is they are designed for large rooms, so much as i'd love one I have to admit I don't have room (and I can't afford an addition big enough)
