Presets
As you can see and hear, using a
GENERAL PRESET gives you a quick and easy way to access a wide vari-
ety of unique and exciting registrations without pressing numerous buttons.
In addition to setting up various sounds, the
GENERAL PRESETS will also change appropriate volume set-
tings as well as changing non-sound buttons such as Vibra-Trem, Chorus and Celeste buttons, sustain, etc.
TRY THIS: Try the following steps to see how the GENERAL PRESET buttons work.
1. Open your black Lowrey Songbook to page 6 Amazing Grace, or to page 20 Whispering Hope.
2. Press the
RESET button.
3. When the
POWER UP screen appears press the EASY button, turning it on.
4. With your left hand on the lower keyboard and your right hand on the upper keyboard, play through
the song several times using GENERAL PRESETS 0 through 8.
Remember that when using the EASY button, you can play single-fingered or multi-fingered chords
and the organ will automatically add the bass (pedal) note.
Let the
RED, BLUE and GREEN lights on the lower keyboard and the colored stripes on the music guide your
left hand. Pick your favorite GENERAL PRESET sounds.
If you are using the
EASY button with the GENERAL PRESETS, you will notice the organ continues playing
the last left hand chord played - even though your hands are off the keys. This is the MEMORY feature (shown
later).
MEMORY gives you time to get ready for the next chord change or to turn the pages of your music.
Simply press the lighted
EASY button to turn this feature off. Press the EASY button again (turning it back
on) for the next song if you are continuing on.
Repeat steps 1 through 3 as above. This time try When The Saints Go Marching In (Pg. 12) with
GENER-
AL PRESET 9. Try Release Me (Pg. 16) with GENERAL PRESET 10.
Try the various
GENERAL PRESETS with your favorite songs. You will find that not every preset is appro-
priate for every song.
PLAYING TIP: Anytime you are using a GENERAL PRESET (or any preset for that matter), you can
make any change you wish. For example, you may wish to adjust volume levels (Graphic Mixer) or
select different sounds (Orchestral, Solo, or Tabs). When NOT using a preset, you will need to select
all the sounds and effects, and set the volume levels.
WHAT IS PRESET 0?
There are 10 GENERAL PRESET buttons and
11 GENERAL PRESETS, as listed to the left.
General preset 0 is the power up sound. Just
turning the Prestige on gives you that ‘Sweet
Lowrey Sound.’
The same is true, as you will see, for the
Bank, Category, and Rhythm Presets. For
example, pressing the
COUNTRY CATEGORY
PRESET button activates COUNTRY
CATEGORY PRESET 0, a complete preset
sound. Pressing preset buttons 1-10 gives
you 10 more Country Preset sounds.
