Drawbars
One of the standard performance features of many tone wheel organs is the set of drawbars
for emulating the stops on a pipe organ. Moving the drawbars controls the amplitude of
either the fundamentals or the harmonics of the notes. The Forte SE's sliders serve as the
nine drawbars found on most tone wheel organs. Pushing the sliders up is the equivalent of
pushing the drawbars in (removing fundamentals or harmonics).

KB3 Mode Effects Buttons (Variation Button and Assignable Switches)
When using a KB3 program the switches above the sliders control KB3 effects. The KB3
function is labeled below each switch, their LEDs indicate the status of the various effects for
the current KB3 program. This status is saved as part of each program. You can change the
effects in real time by pressing the switches. These switches also respond to and send MIDI
Controller messages.

Additional Controller Assignments In KB3 Mode
Other default assignments for factory KB3 programs include:

organ preamp. The PreampResp parameter must be set to On for this to work (the default
setting). See PreampResp on page 7-84
The Mod Wheel controls Distortion Drive.
Switch Pedal 1 (sustain) controls the SpeedCtl parameter, which toggles the Rotary speed
between slow or fast. See
