Setting Up
33
The two brown Drawbars on the far left have the role to give depth and
richness to the sound. The left 16' is one (1) octave lower than the 8,' and
5 1/3' is the third harmonic of the 16' fundamental.
Normally, the tones are built on the 8' fundamental, but, if you want to add
depth to the tone or to expand the playing range on the manual by one (1)
octave, the tones are built on the 16' fundamental.
In each Drawbar set, the white Drawbar (8') on the left end makes the
basic/fundamental sound. The other white Drawbars get higher by the
octave to the right.
WHITE DRAWBARS
BLACK DRAWBARS
The sounds of the black Drawbars, too, play important roles in building
rich tones. Their pitches are fifth and third to the fundamental. They
contain the elements of all different harmonics of such as the sweet and
soft horn, mellow strings and so on.
