KB3 Editor: The Drawbars (DRAWBR) Page
Press the
Drawbr
soft button to view the DRAWBR Page. This page lets you edit KB3’s drawbars.
Mode
When you set Mode to
Preset
, the preset drawbar settings on this page will be installed at
program selection. The drawbar values will immediately change, however, as soon as you move
the corresponding drawbar. Set Mode to
Live
if you want the drawbar volume settings at
program selection to be determined by the positions of the drawbar controllers (sliders). With
either setting, any engagements of the drawbar controllers subsequent to program selection will
affect drawbar volumes.
Steps
This parameter lets you specify the increments by which drawbar volumes will change. Choose
either
0–8
, to approximate the drawbar settings on actual organs, or choose
0–127
for a finer
degree of resolution.
Volume
This parameter appears only if you’ve set Mode (see above) to
Preset
. Use the Volume parameter
to set the preset volume of each of the nine drawbars. The available values will be
0–8
or
0–127
, depending on the setting of the Steps parameter. See
Table 6-3 on page 6-8
for
details on the MIDI CC numbers and values that each drawbar sends and receives.
Tune
This parameter lets you tune each of the nine drawbars up or down in semitone steps. The values
for the Tune parameter on the DRAWBR page shown above represent standard drawbar settings
on a real B3, as shown in the table below.
