Koopman's latest Buxtehude CD (recorded on the Jacobikirche organ) cites pitch: 495.45 Hz (at 18 C) :o , temperament: 1/6 comma meantone and wind pressure: 80 mm.
Nice recording, nice playing, great instrument...

what is it with those type of organs, the keyboards look so small

When you've got three manuals and the pedals you don't necessarily need a piano's seven octaves.

This organ still has quite a lot of its original Schnitger-substance (I have been inside), only the pipes of the prospect and some tiny pipes of the mixtures are not original, the original oak case was lost in WW II, the post war reconstruction of the case again was replaced in 1993. But most of the "sounding substance" including the wind cases is original. The temperament is a modern modification of the middle - tone temperament.

It is actually the mixtures North German organs had assertive Mixtures... Sometimes up to 12 ranks...

The highest on a single stop on this is 8f - with an additional 2f on each (on Werck, Ruckpositiv and Pedal - actually 6-8f). On Oberpositiv and Brustpositiv there are 3f and 4-6f and 2f and 4-6f respectively.

You mean the Smallest of the Scharf in the Brust Posotif?
