For the largest,deepest sounds tall wooden troughs called "Bombards' were used.(of varying lengths)These "bass" pipes often had wooden plates on the side of the speaker hole for direction,resonance,and baffling.They're back there too.
Sometimes little percussive bells struck with little hammers were used to get that chime effect,although you can get that effect with a short blast of air on the smaller pipes
My brother is a pipe organist.
