HighHarm
Controls which drawbar is used as the basis for the percussion when Harmonic is set to
High. On an actual tone wheel organ, this is Drawbar 5 (3rd harmonic). e actual pitch
obtained depends on the drawbar tuning.
StealBar
Controls which drawbar is disabled when the percussion eect is turned on. On an
unmodied tone wheel organ, the ninth drawbar is the one disabled. Any drawbar can be
selected.

Parameter Group (Available for each combination of
the Volume and Decay parameters on the PERC1 page)
Range of Values
Percussion Level 0 to 24.0 dB
Decay Time 0.01 to 5.10 seconds, in 0.02-second increments
Organ Volume Level -12.0 to 12.0 dB
PercLevel, DecayTime, OrgLevel
With these parameters you can control the amplitude and decay time of the percussion eect
for all combinations of the Volume and Decay parameters (on the PERC1 page). You can
also adjust the level of the organ relative to the percussion, for accurate emulation of classic
organs.
KB3 Editor: The EQ Page
e four column headers on this page represent two shelving bands of equalization and
two parametric bands. e KB3 EQ oered here, though, is not implemented as a true EQ
section; instead, it adjusts the volume of the tone wheels based on frequency. If the tone
wheels are based on sine waves, then this acts similarly to a real EQ.
