This is a very lovely project that you are undertaking. I have often desired to attempt such a project but have not been able. I hope that you continue in this.
Part of reason I got started with this project was because we don't have an organist for the Monday night service at my church, and I wanted to explore different technology I could use to provide great sounding music. I use the basic version of Hauptwerk right now, but Lord willing will eventually get a more expensive organ with better sound samples. I had my eye on this one from Milan Digital Audio for the future, http://www.milandigitalaudio.com/salisbury.htm.
It is a wonderful plan. I have wanted to have the hymns available for the same reason. We sing ours a cappella. I keep wanting to learn to read music, but never make the time. So if we do not know the hymn we play the midi file from lutheranhymnal.com. At least that helps us to get started.
You should check out this website: http://www.smallchurchmusic.com/Index_Tune_List_incl.php. It is run by a Baptist gentleman, Clyde McLennan, out of Australia. If you cannot find a hymn tune on there that you want, send him and e-mail, he might record it for you!
