Using Drawbar Organ Tones

Adjusting a Drawbar Organ Tone in Real Time

Use the sliders and buttons to adjust drawbar organ tones in real time.

To do this:

 

Do this:

*1 Adjustment to one of four levels, from 0 to 3, is supported. Each level is indicated by the level meter as shown below.

*2 This operation is supported only when DSP is being used as the effect and the DSP type is “Rotary”. For details about effects, see “Applying Effects to a Sound” (page E-29). For details about DSP types, see “DSP Effect List” (page E-155).

To configure the level meter to show the harmonic overtone level of each slider position

1.Perform steps 1 through 3 of the procedure under “To select and play with a drawbar organ tone” (page E-50).

•The level meter shows the harmonic overtone levels for the foot “lengths” preset for the currently selected drawbar organ tone.

•You also could skip this step and start from step 2 of this procedure, if you want.

2.Hold down the R-12 (MANUAL) button until the foot “length” values (16' through 1') along the top of the level meter flash twice. You can release the button at this time.

•This will cause the level meter to indicate the current positions of sliders D-4 (16') through D-12 (1'), and apply applicable harmonic overtone levels to the current tone.

3.Shift sliders D-4 (16') through D-12 (1') upwards and downwards.

•When you do, the displayed harmonic overtone levels will change accordingly in the level meter.

4.Now you can play on the keyboard using the level-adjusted tone.
