The original vintage Tone Wheel instruments (not all the models) had a special and very complex
circuit called Scanner Vibrato to add to the sound a very nice simulated frequency and phase
modulation, that became another typical effect of these instruments. This particular post-
processing is also part of the Organ Model and with the dedicated buttons you can choose from 2
Vibrato or 2 Chorus effect settings and assign them to one or both parts. To do this you can select
the focus position pressing Upper and/or Lower and control the effects, in all details and
separately for the 2 parts.
To add more rhythmic elements to your performance you can switch on the Percussion, another
very typical and important feature of the vintage electro-mechanical organs, included in the Organ
model. This effect only retriggers when all keys are released before, allowing to control the effect by
playing “legato” or “staccato”. Playing legato, the Percussion will work only on the first notes
played and it fades away during the decay, allowing to make short and aggressive solo parts
followed by legato chords or scales, without Percussion.
You can press the On/Off butto to activate Percussion and select the 2nd/3rd button to decide if
the Percussion is generated by the second harmonic, equivalent to the 4’ Drawba), or by the third
harmonic, corresponding to the 2 2/3 Drawbar. The Slow/Fast control defines the decay of the
Percussion and the related Volume can be separately controlled in the related page of the GLOBAL
As explained in another part or this manual, the original Tonewheel Organs had a direct panel
control for the Percussion Volume, but it was made only of two possible settings: SOFT or
NORMAL. In the Global parameter you have a continuos control on the Percussion level with 64
values, indipendently associated to the Fast and Slow decay.
