About Organ Sounds (VTW)

The FR-4x contains a virtual organ that is based on Roland's Virtual
Tone Wheel technology.
You can play organ sounds like an organ player by using the Right
Hand (TW Upper), Left Hand chord and Bass sections (TW Lower,
TW Pedal).
You are free to assign an organ sound to just one section, to two, or
to all three of them.
