About Perc (Percussion)
Perc (Percussion) adds an attack-type sound to the beginning of the note to
give the sound more crispness. The attack sound changes according to the
value.
The percussion on tone wheel organs did not apply to all notes that were
played. When notes were played legato (smoothly and connectedly),
percussion was applied only to the first-played note. When notes were
played staccato (articulating each note separately), percussion was applied
to all notes. This method is referred to as single trigger algorithm, and is a
very important element in organ performance.
On the FP-5 faithfully simulates this characteristic.
Settings Description
2nd
Percussion sounds at a pitch one octave
above that of the key pressed.
3rd
Percussion sounds at a pitch an octave and
a fifth above that of the key pressed.
The settings changed here
are stored to each Tone.
Even when you exit from
Tone Wheel mode, you can
press [Tone Wheel] button
to select the Tone with the
changed settings.
NOTE
The Percussion is applied
only to the UPPER Tone.
When percussion is on, the
1’ pitch will not be
produced (p. 15).
