The "basic tones" are from physical rotation. And Italian pipe organs
also synthesize the sounds from basic tones instead of having single

That was very nice. I really liked the mix of traditional-sounding
organ and synthesizer. I think they go together very well.
Although I'm not going to consult a friend who is a fanatic about
"original instruments" and Baroque organs and utterly hates
synthesizers.
What's his take on Hammond organs (tone wheels rotating before
pickups)?
Certainly an "original instrument", not a synthesizer, not a digitally
sampled thing.
