AHLBORN - HYMNUS IV

TRANSPOSER

The Transposer is particularly useful when providing accompaniment for voices or other instru-
ments. Adjusting the knob to the required position, it is possible to vary the pitch of the music by 6
SEMITONES BELOW or 3 SEMITONES ABOVE standard pitch. This avoids the necessity of
effecting laborious manual transpositions.
NOTE: Before any normal performance, care should be taken to ensure that the Transposer knob is
in its "0" position.

REVERBERATION

A digital Reverberation device has been incorporated into HYMNUS IV in order to improve the
sound performance of the instrument, especially in small rooms with little resonance.
The relative REVERB EFFECT and REVERB LEVEL controls are located in the appropriate
control panel (see next section).
