5.3 KEYBOARDS GENERAL SETTINGS
The KEYBOARDS SETTING function, recalled using the option of the same name in the SET-UP
menu, contains four different organ general setting parameters.
The first of these is the RANKS DISTANCE:
RANKS DISTANCE
Ped:15 Man.I:8 Man.II:10 Man.III:8
RANKS DISTANCE
Pedal:15 Manual I:8 Manual II:10
Prestige 100 - 80:
Prestige 70 - 60 - 50 - 40 - 20:
This parameter allows a delay time to be set for generation of the voice sound in relation to the
moment when a note is pressed on the keyboard, for each individual manual and the pedal board.
In almost all the original pipe organs installed in large churches, the pipe wind-chests are some
distance from the organ and the organist who is playing it, sometimes even in special rooms.
There are cases in which the wind-chests of one division are behind the altar, while those of another
division are at the entrance to the church. Obviously, this distance generates some delay between
the moment when the organist depresses a key and when he starts to hear the sound of the pipes.
This parameter allows simulation of a distance from 0 to 31 metres between the organ and the pipe
wind-chests.
The video contains four fields, corresponding to the organ’s sections, while the bottom line contains
the distance in metres simulated between the organ and the wind-chests.
Now the CURSOR [] button can be pressed to display the PISTON COMBINE and KEYBOARDS
INVERSION parameters.
Bearing in mind that the way in which the PISTON COMBINE function works depends on the
model of organ being used, we will obtain:
- in Prestige 100 and 80
MAN.I/MAN.II KEYBOARDS INVERSION:disable
MAN.II/PEDAL PISTON COMBINE:disable
The MAN.II/PEDAL PISTON COMBINE function allows the memories of the second manual to
be “coupled” to those of the pedal board. This means that when a manual II memory is recalled, the
same memory will also be automatically activated for the pedal board.
