The XK 5s Virtual Multi Contact keying system provides the classic Hammond Feel." On Vintage Hammonds,
the metal on metal contacts beneath each key yielded that unique, essential morsel of noise so beloved by all
who lay their hands on the King Of Instruments. Each one had their own voice. Here is how to dial in exactly how
much of this noble imperfection you desire.
The Key click Parameters are Patch Parameters, they are unique to each Patch. You will need to select the
Patch you wish to adjust the Key click on. If you are using the Adjust Presets, you will need to select either of
the UPPER ones, and pull the Drawbars to your liking. Play as you adjust to arrive at your desired sound.
