    Regal 8′

    The Regal is the smallest musical instrument that meets the three definition criteria of the aerophone “organ” by containing the three essential organ components:

    1. Pipes (a row of extremely short-breech reed pipes)
    2. Bellows (two small, manually operated wedge bellows)
    3. Keyboard
    In the Renaissance and early Baroque periods, Regals were widespread in both sacred and secular music culture. In the 18th century, the instrument fell into oblivion because its overtone-buzzing sound no longer corresponded to the prevailing musical aesthetic.

    "​Short octave: The short octave was the norm in organ building in the 16th and 17th centuries throughout Europe; in Italy and Austria it lasted until the 18th and even 19th centuries. It is a special arrangement of the keys of the lowest octave, in which the four semitones C sharp, D sharp, F sharp and G sharp were omitted because they were rarely used in music at the time. This meant that the production of the corresponding, relatively large pipes was not necessary. Although the criterion of saving hardly plays a role in the case of regal and stringed keyboard instruments, the short octave was also built for these, because the players of organs and pianos were the same at that time. A different design of the keyboards of organs and other keyboard instruments would have meant an inconvenience for the players.]​ "
