sound complemented by crystal-clear definition, the Rodgers 805C will take you to new musical heights,
while sustaining the tradition of quality, craftsmanship and innovation you’ve come to expect from

Parallel Digital Imaging (PDI™), Rodgers’ proprietary software-based technology that revolutionized
the digital organ world, permits each note of every stop of the Rodgers 805C to be individually tuned,
leveled and voiced after installation, just like an organ with wind-blown pipes.
The Rodgers 805C features Rodgers’ exclusive Voice Palette providing an additional 24 sounds.
These voices can be easily stored on pistons, allowing you to authentically recreate virtually any musical
style or individual performance desired.
With remarkable flexibility, superior sound and the option of adding real pipes at any time, the
Rodgers 805C is a perfect choice for any home, concert or worship setting.
Built entirely in Oregon by dedicated, expert craftsmen, our consoles are meticulously handcrafted of
hardwoods and veneers, and are designed to the exacting standards of the American Guild of Organists.

and functions offered by this instrument. As highly sophisticated as the Rodgers 805C is, the features are
easy to use and easy to access, creating a most satisfying musical experience for the player and listener
alike.
