Orchestral & Solo
Still other buttons in this section control from where the sounds are played: Upper Keyboard and/or Lower
Keyboard. Orchestral and Solo volume controls are in this section, as well.
What It Does:
Going beyond what the Presets will do, you can experiment for an almost unlimited amount of possibilities
for “just the right sound.” Remember, if you find a combination you like, save it to a BANK PRESET.
How It Works:
The definition of Orchestral and Solo sounds and how they differ is important.
Red-colored
ORCHESTRAL sounds are Polyphonic. Polyphonic means you can play two or more notes at
the same time.
Blue-colored
SOLO sounds are Monophonic. Monophonic means you can only play one note at a time.
When multiple notes are being played, the Solo sound will always be heard on the highest note.
It is possible to play a Solo sound as if it were Polyphonic. Press the desired blue Solo button. Be sure the
red-colored
UPPER ON button is on (lighted) while the blue-colored UPPER ON and LOWER ON buttons are
OFF (not lighted). Pressing the blue-colored Upper On button, turning it on, will make the selected Solo
sound Monophonic.
NOTE: The red-colored UPPER ON button is lighted after you turn the organ on or press the Reset button.
How To Use It:
Listen to the Orchestral and Solo sounds to find your favorites. These sounds are beautiful alone or in com-
bination with the tab voices previously shown. Don’t forget about the hundreds of Genius Voices that can
be used in this section.
