EQ / Volume
To add more rhythmic elements to your performance you can
switch on Percussion. This eff ect only retriggers when all keys were
released before.
Press On/Off to activate Percussion. With the 2nd/3rd button
you can decide whether Percussion is generated by the second
harmonic (button does not light up), or by the third harmonic
(button lights up).
Slow/Fast defi nes the decay of the Percussion. Press Slow/Fast to
shorten the decay from 1 second (button does not light up) to 200
milliseconds (button lights up).
You can also change the level of Percussion. Press Soft to decrease
the volume of Percussion. The button lights up.
Note: For Percussion the 1‘ contact of the Upper manual is used. Thus
drawbar
9 is without function for the Upper manual while Percussion is
switched on.
Reverb
Even old tone wheel organs had already implemented spring
reverbs. This is simulated by the NUMA Organ. Use the Reverb knob
to adjust the intensity of the spring reverb and add depth to your
music.
Drive
With the Drive knob you control the intensity of a simulated tube
amplifi er. Drive directly aff ects the overall volume of the NUMA
Organ. The higher you set Drive, the more distortion you get. This
typical tube sound can be turned up to an ecstatic “yelling“ sound.
Key Click
The parameter Key Click lets your NUMA Organ age in no time
by adding the clicking noises which are usually associated with
old contacts. Luckily you can decide yourself how old your NUMA
Organ should sound.
Leakage
You can also add nostalgic “dirt“ to the sound of the NUMA Organ
by using Leakage. This parameter simulates the “cross-talk between
proximate tone wheels“.
To adjust the sound of the NUMA Organ to the environment, you
can cut or boost low and high frequencies using the Bass and
Treble knobs in the Output section. Set the sound level with the
Volume knob.
