Performing

When you use the melody coupler, the highest note you finger on the lower keyboard will also be sounded by the stops selected in

the MAN II division. This function allows you to simultaneously play accompaniment and solo registrations by fingering a single

manual.

Press the melody coupler [MEL] piston.

When the melody coupler is on, the piston’s indicator will light.

Press the piston once again so the indicator goes out.

If you turn on the [II/I] manual coupler (p. 31), the melody coupler effect cannot be obtained.

Changing the range of the melody coupler

You are free to change the range in which the melody coupler will operate. The specified note and those above it will use the melody

coupler, and notes below it will not.
