Key Track Amount (KTrkAmt) and Key
KTrkAmt can be used to scale the key click volume, so that lower notes will have a quieter
key click. e Key parameter determines the key at which the volume scaling will begin.
(When the Key parameter is selected, you can select the desired key by holding the Enter
button and striking a key).
e selected key will use the key click volume set by the Volume parameter. Each key below
the selected key will have progressively quieter key click. For example, the note 1 key below
the selected Key will multiply the key click Volume by the KTrkAmt, the note 2 keys below
the selected Key will multiply the key click Volume by double the KTrkAmt, the note 3 keys
below the selected Key will multiply the key click Volume by triple the KTrkAmt, and so
forth.

Percussion is a characteristic feature of tone wheel organs. It’s especially useful while soloing,
since percussion adds an extra “plink” (actually an extra tone at a dened harmonic) to the
attack. You can reach the percussion parameters by pressing the Perc1 and Perc2 soft buttons.
