Digital Drawbars page

DIGITAL DRAWBARS are different from ordinary Sounds.
Their parameters are not saved as a new Sound, but can be saved
to a Performance. Therefore, when entering the Digital Draw-
bars page, the MENU button is disabled.

Note:

In Style Play and Backing Sequence mode, only a Digital

Drawbar Sound is available for the Keyboard tracks, and one for
the Style tracks. Save them to a Performance (see “Write Perfor-
mance dialog box” on page 138
of the User’s Manual).

Note:

In Song Play mode, there is a Digital Drawbars Sound for

the Keyboard tracks, one for Song tracks 1-8, another one for Song
tracks 9-16.

Note:

In Sequencer mode there is a Digital Drawbars Sound for

Song tracks 1-8, one for Song tracks 9-16.

When you select the DIGITAL DRAWBARS bank, the Digital
Drawbar page appears, and the current setting is assigned to the
selected track.

When entering this page, the SLIDER MODE button is automat-
ically set to DRAWBARS, so you can use the sliders to change
each foot volume. As an alternative, touch a footage and drag it
on the display, or use the VALUE DIAL controls to change its
value.

Each foot refers to the pipe length in a pipe organ, in which the
sound is produced by pipes of different length. Longer pipes
mean a lower sound; therefore, the 16’ drawbar produces the
lowest pitched sound, while the 1’ drawbar produces the highest
pitched sound.
