Getting Ready To Play
PULL OUT DRAWBARS
Pull out Drawbars to your taste. You can monitor your selec-
tions easily while playing the keyboard (the UPPER keyboard
if on SK2).
e Drawbars make the fundamental organ sound of this unit.
e tone changes depending on how far the Drawbars are
pulled out.
e volume of each sound becomes maximum when the Draw-
bar is fully pulled out, and null when fully pushed back.  e
drawbars are arranged so that the pitch grows higher from left
to right.
Now, as an example, fully pull out the 3 left side bars; 16´, 5
´ and 8´.
NOTE: You can change the sound character of the Drawbars. (P. 74)
NOTE: The present registration is displayed in the Play mode. (P. 65)
ADD THE TOUCH-RESPONSE PERCUSSION
[PERCUSSION] here does not mean percussion instruments
like drums or marimbas, but the classic crisp attack unique to
the Hammond Organ. Use it to mix with Drawbar sounds
whenever necessary. [PERCUSSION] is available only on the
UPPER part.
If you switch on the [SECOND] and the [THIRD], percus-
sion sounds of one octave higher “C” and “G” are added to the
note on each keyboard, respectively.
If you switch on the [FAST] button the decay is quicker, and
if the [SOFT] button is selected, the volume of the Percussion
is diminished.
Here, select the following 3 Percussion buttons [THIRD],
[FAST], [SOFT].
NOTE: You can  ne-tune the percussion parameters to your taste. (P.
82)
SELECT THE UPPER DRAWBARS
In this example, make sounds to begin with the Organ Section.
e DRAWBARS SELECT buttons are for selecting which
part the Drawbars will control written below.
NOTE: What is a “PART”? (p. 33)
Select [UPPER].  is is the basic Organ Part, the one used
most frequently.
