To fully enjoy playing this module, please read the following section of
this manual.
See the illustrated System Structure of your keyboard on the left page.
TONE-WHEELS
The sound source or “engine” of the Hammond Organ is the Tone-wheels. They
are like the strings and pick-ups on the electric guitar. While running, each of the
96 digital Tone-wheels keeps oscillating at a different pitch/frequency.
KEYS
Each of the sound signals made by the 96 digital Tone-wheels is switched at each
key. Each signal corresponding with each pitch and harmonic is distributed to
each key (as an example, 9 signals for the manual keyboard). The keys are switched
on and off by depressing and releasing the keys.
DRAWBARS
The Drawbars prepare the basic sounds. Each bar adjusts the value of a harmonic
(as an example, 9 harmonics for the manual keyboard).
PERCUSSION
The Percussion makes the decay sound, synchronizing with the key touch of the
UPPER part.
VIBRATO/CHORUS
Vibrato gives vibration to the pitch. By mixing the vibrato sound with the funda-
mental sound, Chorus effect is obtained.
NOTE: On this module, the scanner circuit of the B-3/C-3 is simulated, which gives
more effects than the changes of the pitch.
OVERDRIVE
Overdrive adds the fuzzy, raspy, “dirty” sound created by the vacuum tubes of a
tube-style Leslie Speaker when its volume is pushed past its sound limit.
The PEDAL Part however, is designed not to pass through the Vibrato/Chorus or
the Overdrive in order to obtain the clear Bass-line.
EQUALIZER, LESLIE and REVERB
The sound that comes out of the output terminal after passing the special effects:
the Equalizer (for tone regulation), the Leslie (for the rotating speaker effects)
and the Reverb (for resonance). (The built-in Leslie Effect cannot be heard through
the Leslie 8-pin terminal.)
NOTE: The built-in Leslie Effect is designed to smoothly simulate the rotations of
the two rotors.
TONE-WHEEL SET
The Tone-wheel Sets are divided into the
Manual Keyboard and the Pedal Part. This is to
give the Pedal Part the Decay (= the sound
gradually fading out while pressing the key) or
Sustain Effect. (= the sound gradually fading
out after the key is released).
HARMONICS
Harmonic is a pitch of a different ratio to a cer-
tain pitch; for example, the one octave higher
C to the middle C. The more Harmonics, the
brighter and richer the sound.
