Editing Parameters
UPPER & LOWER DRAWBARS
TYPE
Th is allows you to select the ORGAN Type.
A-100 ............... Tone Wheel Organ, A-102 No. 35564.
B-3 ..................... Tone Wheel Organ, B-3 No. A27563.
C-3 ..................... Tone Wheel Organ, C-3 No. C155596.
Mellow ............ Pure sine waves with no harmonic development.
Vx ...................... Reproduces the sound of a vintage British combo organ.
Farf ................... Reproduces the sound of a vintage Italian combo organ.
Ace .................... Reproduces the sound of a vintage Japanese combo organ.
Pipe .................. Pipe Organ.
ENVELOPE
Settings: Con, R1 ~ R15, AR1 ~ AR15
Th is allows you to adjust the rate of Attack (when a key is depressed) and Release (when
the key is released).
“Con” is the envelope of the key-click(s) generated with the Virtual Multi-Contacts.
“1 -- 15” is the rate of Attack without the Virtual Multi-Contacts. Th
e greater the
value, the slower the Attack (the speed at the which the Drawbar registration sounds
when a key is depressed).
Th
e “R” Parameter changes the Release rate. Th e Attack rate is that provided by the
Virtual Multi-Contacts. Th is means that the onset of the tone will be instantaneous
while the Release rate is regulated by the numerical setting.
Th
e “AR” Parameter disables the Virtual Multi-Contacts and allows you to change both
the Attack and Release rate. At higher numerical settings the Attack and Release will be
slow, similar to that of a pipe organ.
LEAKAGE LEVEL
Setting Range: 0 (no Leakage tone) ~ 127 (maximum Leakage tone)
Th is allows you to adjust the total volume of the leakage tone.
CUSTOM SET
Setting Range: F1 ~ F3, U1 ~ U3
Th is allows you to select a customized set for each Tone Wheel Organ and Pipe Organ.
NOTE: See page 120 “Custom Tone Wheel” or page 126 “Custom Pipe” for more details.
NOTE: This Parameter is not available for the Transistor Organs.
PEDAL
TYPE
Settings: Normal, Muted
Th is allows you to select the ORGAN Type for the PEDAL Part.
Normal ......Traditional tone-wheel registration of the B-3/C-3/A-100.
Muted ........Analog pedal tones as on the classic X-5.
NOTE: When one of the Transistor Organs (Vx., Farf. or Ace.) is selected for the UPPER &
LOWER, Muted is automatically selected for the PEDAL Part.
NOTE: When the Pipe Organ Type is selected for the UPPER & LOWER Parts, Pipe is automati-
cally selected for the PEDAL Part and the other PEDAL Parameters are unavailable.
ENVELOPE
Setting Range: Con, R1 ~ R15, AR1 ~ AR15
Th is allows you to set the Attack and Release characteristics of the PEDAL tones.
NOTE: See paragraph on this page for more information.
NOTE: This Parameter is available on Tone Wheel Organs A-100, B-3, C-3 and Mellow.
SUB DRAWBARS
Setting Range: F1 ~ F3, U1 ~ U3
Th is allows you to select the harmonic settings for the PEDAL or Sub Drawbars when
the “Normal” Type is selected.
NOTE: This Parameter is available on Tone Wheel Organs “A-100,” “B-3,” ” C-3” and “Mellow.”

KEY CLICK
On tone-wheel organs such as the B-3/C-3/A-100,
each time a key is depressed 9 electrical switch
contacts are closed by means of 9 horizontal flat
springs which touch 9 busbars. Each time a contact
is closed or released, a “key click” was produced.
This characteristic is replicated on the SK PRO.
EXAMPLES OF KEY-CLICK SETTINGS
Simulation of a classic multi-contact Hammond
Organ such as B-3/C-3/A-100:
ENV=CON
Simulation of a PCM synthesizer to produce the
“key click” only at the attack:
ENV=R1
Slow envelope similar to that of a pipe organ:
ENV=AR15
ENVELOPE
The variation of a sound over time, as is used in
sound synthesis.
