pitch.
If you decrease the value, the sound gets sweet and mild, as the treble is cut o .
e setting range is 0 - 127.

LEAKAGE NOISE
In the vintage electro-mechanical Hammond
organs, sometimes the signal from adjacent
Tone Wheels would be picked up (or leaked”)
along with the current Tone Wheel in play. This
“hash” noise, another Hammond anomaly original-
ly considered to be a defect grew to be an integral
part of the Hammond sound.
“Mellow” does not include the Leakage Noise.
DISTORTION
If you raise the Level and Resonance values too
much, it changes the gain in the sound engine and
may sometimes cause distortion, i.e. unpleasant
noise.
In such a case, please lower these values.
