What is Percussion?
Percussion adds an attack-type sound to the beginning of
the note to give the sound more sparkle.
When notes were played legato (smoothly and connectedly),
percussion was applied only to the rst-played note.
When notes were played staccato (articulating each note
separately), percussion was applied to all notes. This
method is referred to as single trigger algorithm, and is a
very important element in organ performance. The FP-80
faithfully simulates this characteristic.
