It was the first spinet organ produced by Wurlitzer employing vacuum tubes in oscillator circuits for tone generation and also for divider circuits. In the late 30s into the early 50s Wurlitzer used the WC lock on most wallboxes and cash drawers. The main difference between Church Pipe Organs and Theatre Organs was the deep Tremulant that took the edge off the Theatre Organs pipes and made them emotionally 'sob'. I am primarily interested in selling but would trade for USA G&L, USA, MIM and MIJ Fender Tele, Strat or vintage guitars and basses, pedals and amps.

Preset sounds were hard-wired and were generally typical of the era they varied depending on the model of organ that the synth was incorporated into.

The Orbit's architecture was very basic, with a single VCO, a low pass filter of some type, a VCA, and an AR envelope generator, along with various bits of dedicated modulation circuits. (Compare to the Moog Satellite, which was incorporated into organs built by Thomas but was also available as a stand-alone unit.) The Orbit was not made or sold as a stand-alone synth it was only available incorporated into various models of Wurlitzer electric organs.
