Organ Model
In the Vintage Tonewheel Organs , mainly in the Consolle ver-
sions (2x61 notes keyboard) the last octave on the left was
made with reverse colors, since those keys were dedicated to
the selection of factory presets, in addition to them selection
of the 2 live Drawbars groups available for each keyboard
(named Swell and Great as in the Pipe Organs.
At that time the Pipe Organ builders association tried to pre-
vent, through legal actions, that electromechanical instru-
ments (and any other electronic instrumet) could be called
Organs and used also in churches for religious services; for
this reason one of the attempts made by the manufacturers
of electromechanical instruments was to simulate the sounds
of the pipe organs and to name the factory preselections with
typical names of the classical organ combinations.
The ocial test took place in the presence of legal and mu-
sical representatives in USA and saw the electromechanical
instruments winning the challenge and being allowed to be
called Organs.
The Factory settings of the Drawbars levels were mainly in-
tended to imitate some typical pipe Organ sounds and they
were hardware wired settings, that could be modied only by
expert technicians.
The following are few examples of the millions of possible
combinations.
