B4 II – 59
When activating Percussion on an original B3, the 1’ tone becomes silent.
The default setting for the B4 does not account for this. You can, however,
activate the Perc disables 1’ drawbar feature on the Setup View to get your
B4 act like the original in this aspect.
The speed of decay and the percussion volume can be adjusted in the Expert
View. As an enhancement over the original B3, the B4 allows any drawbar to
be selected as the source for the percussion tone. The percussion effect is
only available on the upper manual.
The Percussion Volume switch toggles between two preset volume levels (Soft
and Normal) for the Percussion sound. This switch will override the setting of
the Volume dial sitting on the Expert View.
On similar grounds, the Percussion Decay switch toggles between two preset
decay speeds for the Percussion effect, overriding the preset setting.
Using the Percussion Harmonics switch you can choose between two different
drawbars producing the Percussion effect. Again, you will override the preset
value on the Expert View that has more than two settings to choose from.
On the lower-right of the B4 Manual View you will find two additional
Knobs:
With the Reverb dial you can set the amount of reverb signal getting mixed
into the output signal.
The Drive knob can be found both on the Manual View and on the Organ View
in the tube amp section. You can use it to set the overdrive amount of the
built in tube-amplier model. This control provides a wide range of settings,
be it clean jazz, bluesy crunch or downright heavy rock distortion. Be sure to
check the Organ View for a selection of different authentic cabinet models
that complement the overdrive sound.
