PERCUSSION
You can use PERCUSSION <4> or <2 2/3> to change the tone when it is played.
Touching PERCUSSION makes the accent time shorter.
ROTARY
This adds a sort of spinning effect to the organ sound, similar to the sound when a rotary speaker is used.
Changing the speed increases or decreases the speed of this spinning effect.
PART Selects the part to which the footage settings will be added.
Footage
A device for combining different frequencies to create a desired sound is called “Footage.”
The numbers displayed originally referred to the lengths of the pipes on a pipe organ. The length of pipe used
to produce the reference pitch (the fundamental) for the keyboard is eight feet.
Reducing the pipe to half its length produces a pitch one octave higher; conversely, doubling the pipe length
creates a pitch one octave lower. Therefore, a pipe producing a pitch one octave below that of the reference of
8’ (eight feet) would be 16’; for one octave above the reference, the pipe would be 4’, and to take the pitch up
yet another octave it would be shortened to 2’.
Try experimenting by touching different icons to change the tone, and find one you like.
* When all bars are pushed in all the way (0), there will be no sound when you play the keyboard.
