MIDI SUSTAIN KICK SWITCH

A lever located to the left of the Great/Pedal expression shoe (optional in many organs) and
controlled by the organist's foot, operates MIDI sustain. This function can be assigned to any one
of or all of the instrument's manuals. Advance to the 'MIDI SUSTAIN' window function.
Use the "◄" and "►" buttons in the Console Controller™ to select an organ division. Use the
"▲" and "▼" buttons in the Console Controller™ to turn the selected manual ON/OFF. OFF will
not allow MIDI sustain messages to be transmitted, ON will allow MIDI sustain messages to be
transmitted on a given division or MIDI channel. For example, when a PIANO voice in an
external MIDI device (voice module) is selected and the MIDI sustain for that given MIDI
channel (division) is turned ON, and the foot controlled sustain lever is actuated, the piano sound
will slowly decay.
9. TRANSFERRING and SAVING CAPTURE MEMORY DATA TO A SEQUENCER
CAPTURE MEMORY refers to all of the piston registrations on all available Memories, plus all
positional secondary Crescendo "B" settings and the secondary Tutti "B" settings. With this
operation, the organist can copy and save all of this stored information to a digital MIDI
sequencer. Advance to the 'CAPTURE MEMORY SAVE' window function.
Set your sequencer to the record mode and begin recording as you normally would. Press and
hold the MEMORY button in the Console Controller™. While holding MEMORY, press
General Pistons 2-5-5 in sequence. The Capture Memory information will be transmitted to the
sequencer. During the memory data transfer process the window will display:
