Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church

Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church entrusted R.A. Colby with designing and building a new five-manual custom console for its iconic Fratelli Ruffatti organ. Crafted in mahogany with a walnut interior, the console preserves key visual elements of the original while introducing modern upgrades for reliability and control.

Key features include Hall effect keyboards, a fully integrated piston and MIDI system, LED lighting, internal dolly, and 205 custom drawknob stops. Updated chamber relays and Walker solid state switching ensure stable, responsive performance. The result is a refined, highly functional instrument that honors the organ’s legacy while equipping it for decades of service.
