Drawbar 1, Drawbar 2

Drawbar 1 is at the left, and Drawbar 2 at the right.
Each bar is assigned a pitch (footage), and you can
adjust the volume of that pitch by pulling the bar
toward yourself. The overall character of the sound is
determined by how far each bar is pulled out.

In EX mode, Drawbar 2 is used to control EX Drawbar
and EX Percussion

. For details, refer to “Playing the

CX-3” (p.13).
