HighHarm
This parameter controls which drawbar is used as the basis for the percussion when
Harmonic is set to High. On an actual tone wheel organ, this is Drawbar 5 (3rd harmonic).
The actual pitch obtained depends on the drawbar tuning.
StealBar
This parameter controls which drawbar is disabled when the percussion effect is turned on.
On an unmodified tone wheel organ, the ninth drawbar is the one disabled. Any drawbar can
be selected.
PercLevel, DecayTime, OrgLevel
With these parameters you can control the amplitude and decay time of the percussion
effect for all combinations of the PERC page Volume and Decay parameter settings. You can
also adjust the level of the organ relative to the percussion, for accurate emulation of classic
organs.
KB3 Editor: The KEYCLICK Page
The Key Click feature adds a decaying burst of pitched noise to the attack of notes. Unlike
the percussion feature, key click is "multi-triggered," which means that every new note will
trigger it. The parameters on this page primarily control the decay, volume, and pitch of the
key click.
Key Click
Use this parameter to turn Key Click on or off. With Key Click set to Off, you may still hear
a click depending on your Note Attack and Note Release settings (see below).
