Viscount Cantorum VI Plus Ψηφιακό όργανο

Portable Digital Church Organ with ARTEM Sampling Technology

Church organists seeking a lightweight, transportable instrument will find the Viscount Cantorum VI Plus purpose-built for their needs. This single-manual digital organ combines Viscount's ARTEM digital sampling engine with a tracker-action keyboard, delivering authentic pipe organ character in a 14.5 kg package. Designed for choral accompaniment and small-congregation worship, the instrument provides 84 organ stops across four preset styles — Baroque, German Baroque, Romantic, and Symphonic — each with 21 dedicated stops drawn from the Chorum line library. An adjustable split point allows the 61-note keyboard to function as a two-manual instrument, while the layer function on Manual I and Manual II enables rich solo-and-accompaniment registrations from a single performance.

What Sets This Portable Organ Apart

Few digital organs in this class combine genuine tracker-action key feel with 42 MB of stereo sampling at 46 kHz resolution. Electroacoustic compensation is handled by a digital equalization system, which helps maintain tonal clarity in venues with unpredictable acoustics.

Sound Engine and Voice Architecture for Liturgical Performance

Every church organ's tonal foundation is built on its voice library's quality and breadth. Expanded sample memory and a curated orchestral section add depth and versatility to the core organ stops, making it possible to cover broad liturgical repertoire as well as solo and ensemble settings.

• Polyphony: 192 notes — Enjoy seamless full-chord passages and sustained pedal tones even during complex registrations, without note dropouts.
• Sampling Engine: ARTEM at 46 kHz — stereo pipe organ samples with 42 MB memory, a significant upgrade from the previous generation's 16 MB at 32 kHz
• Across the four preset styles, 84 dedicated stops (21 per style) include classic organ timbres and orchestral voices such as Clarinet, Oboe, Trumpet, Flute, and Pan Flute, expanding the palette for both sacred and secular music.

Tracker Action Keyboard and Organ-Style Controls

Delivering a true organ experience requires controls that feel familiar to classically trained players. The tracker-action mechanism offers tactile resistance like pipe organ keys, while tilt-tab stops and dedicated registration buttons provide fast access to combinations organists use most frequently.

• Keyboard: 61 standard-size keys with Tracker Action — velocity sensitivity activates for MIDI and orchestral sections, while the tracker mechanism provides authentic touch response for organ voices
• Stop Controls: 21 tilt-tab speaking stops — classic organ interface with six general combination buttons and two capture memories for instant registration recall
• With seven selectable temperaments, players can match the tuning system to Baroque, Romantic, or modern repertoire for historically informed performance.

Built-in Amplification and Professional Connectivity

Carrying extra amps is unnecessary thanks to the built-in stereo speakers. Comprehensive MIDI and audio ports mean integration with external sound systems and computers is quick and straightforward, even in changing venues.

• Amplification: 50 W total (2 × 25 W), 2 × 127 mm full-range speakers with bass reflex — delivers room-filling sound without external speakers for small to medium venues
• Inputs: USB, Sustain Pedal, Expression Pedal, MIDI IN — USB host port loads songs, memories, and firmware updates from a pen drive; USB device provides MIDI connectivity to a computer
• Use MIDI OUT, 6.3 mm Jack, or 6.3 mm TRS Headphone outputs to connect to PA systems or practice privately through headphones.

Practical for Organists, Choir Directors, and Traveling Musicians

Organists managing multiple churches benefit from the compact 97.5 × 36 × 13 cm size, making the instrument easy to transport and set up. Choir directors gain a reliable rehearsal tool with genuine organ sound, while the internal repertoire of 61 classic songs, including wedding standards, is instantly accessible. Loading additional song banks from USB is simple. With its adjustable split point and layer function, one performer can cover both solo and accompaniment parts for church services, recordings, or home practice.

Viscount — Italian Digital Organ Innovation

Viscount International, based in Italy, has built its reputation on bringing pipe organ authenticity to portable digital instruments. The Cantorum series emerged as the company's most successful portable organ line, with the original Cantorum VI earning recognition for its lightweight design and accessible price point. The Plus generation represents a comprehensive upgrade cycle — expanding sample memory from 16 MB to 42 MB, increasing polyphony from 128 to 192 notes, and renewing the piano, harp, and bell sounds alongside a more accurate reverb algorithm. The ARTEM technology underpinning the entire platform reflects a commitment to sampling that captures the harmonic richness of real pipe ranks.
