prevents unwanted tampering with capture combinations. See the Console Controller™
instruction booklet later on in this manual regarding the setting of pistons.
THINGS TO REMEMBER
The “R” Piston, when activated, will recall the last combination set prior to using any
general or divisional piston. General pistons affect all stops. Solo and Accompaniment
pistons affect only stops in their division.
All pistons operate independently from each other. However, the capture action is not
fully operable until approximately six seconds after the organ is turned on. Further
information on setting, changing, and reconfiguration of pistons will be found in the
Console Controller section of this manual.
V. TRANSPOSER
The Console Controller controls operation of the transposer. To raise or lower the music
to a higher key, perform the following steps.
1.
Press the cursor key twice (a box will illuminate around the large “0” in lower right
corner of the window). When the zero is displayed, the organ is in neutral position.
2.
The organ’s pitch is now ready to be adjusted in half-step increments. Transposer
will allow organist to raise pitch of organ up to 5 half steps, or down 7 half-steps.
3.
To raise the pitch of the organ:
With Controller displaying a “0” in the illuminated box, rotate the knob clockwise
until a “1” is displayed in the illuminated box. The organ has now been raised one
half step. Rotating the knob clockwise until a “2” is displayed in the box will cause
the organ’s pitch to be raised two half steps. Each advancement of the number (up
to and including number 5) will raise the organ one half step.
Note: When the
organ’s pitch is altered by the transposer, the red LED will be illuminated.
4.
To lower the pitch of the organ:
With the Controller displaying a “0” in the illuminated box, rotate the knob counter-
clockwise until a “-1” is displayed in the illuminated box. The organ has now been
lowered one half step. Rotating the knob counter-clockwise until a “-2” is
displayed in the box will cause the organ’s pitch to be lowered two half steps. Each
advancement of the number (up to and including number –7) will lower the pitch of
the organ one half step.
Note: When the organ’s pitch is altered by the
transposer, the red LED will be illuminated.
5.
To return the pitch of the organ to the neutral position:
Rotate the dial until a “0” is displayed in the illuminated box. Press the cursor
button once so that the large illuminated box disappears. The organ is now locked
in the neutral position, and the red LED transposer light will no longer be
illuminated.
Note:
If organ is powered off, transposer will automatically return to neutral position.
