Have you seen the [Zynthian UI control by ASCII keyboard](https://discourse.zynthian.org/t/control-your-zynthian-with-a-qwerty-or-other-keyboard/3057) interface. There are similar [Callable UI actions](https://wiki.zynthian.org/index.php/Zynthian_UI_Users_Guide#CUIA:_Callable_UI_Actions) through MIDI as well. These might manage simple patch selection during performances.

[Here’s a blog](https://virtualpipeorgans.wordpress.com/vpo-pc-and-audio/building-a-virtual-pipe-organ-audio-system/) following the construction of a MIDI Virtual Pipe Organ.

Another: [The Pipe Organ in my Living Room :A Lifelong Journey](https://www.psaudio.com/copper/article/the-pipe-organ-in-my-living-room-a-lifelong-journey/)

One more Pi based project, just for reference:

I noticed a couple of audiophile sub woofers being given away in my town, in the Craigslist Freebies section, people downsizing, moving into apartments is one reason for giving them away. If you monitored these listings, perhaps you could collect an array of these self powered speakers…

The post: [Accessibility for sight impaired users](https://discourse.zynthian.org/t/accessibility-for-sight-impaired-users/5899/125) was started for [lewisalexander2020](https://discourse.zynthian.org/u/lewisalexander2020) who is using The latest build of Aeolus under [Organnery](https://organnery.com/) has just been released to run on Raspberry Pi 3.

One big organ kit maker [showed a photos of a build](https://nickorsoorganservice.com/story-custom-midiworks.html) with long pull out drawers on the left and right for computer keyboard and controls.
