Allen Organ Company Protege C-19C User Manual page 17

The 4 memories allow you to save different registrations on each piston/toe piston 4
times. This means General Piston 1 on MEM-1, may be totally different from General
Piston 1 on MEM-2, MEM-3, or MEM-4.
NOTE: On standard models a factory pre-registered set of registration examples is stored
on each piston of the last capture memory (Memory 4). You may change Memory 4
registrations to your preferred registrations knowing they can be restored to these original
factory settings. Please see, RESTORING FACTORY SETTINGS referenced later in
this manual.
4. SAVING REGISTRATIONS USING PISTONS
A registration is any combination of stops. These registrations can be stored
(remembered) by the organ's capture memory system. The pistons and toe studs/toe
pistons provide a way to make changes quickly from one registration to another.
General Pistons are those that affect all stops on the organ. Divisional Pistons affect
only those stops associated with the particular manual above them.
To save a registration to a General Piston.
The Main window function in the Console Controller™ must be displayed (See Section
A-2). Select any memory number (MEM-2, MEM-3, or MEM-4, etc.); however, for this
example use MEM-1.
Next, select the stops you want General Piston 1 to remember. Once the stops are
illuminated, press and hold the SET piston and while holding it, press and release
General Piston 1.
Finally, release the SET piston. General Piston 1 will now store in Memory 1 the stops
you selected.
NOTE: General Pistons are sometimes set gradually from soft to loud. General 1 is
softest and General 5 or 7 the loudest.
Save Registrations to a Divisional Piston. (Applicable for some models)
The Main window function in the Console Controller™ must be displayed, (See Section
A-2). Select a memory (MEM-1, MEM-2, etc.) as aforementioned for the General
Pistons. Select the division stops you want the associated Divisional piston to
remember. While holding the SET piston, press and release a Divisional Piston you
want to save to. Finally, release the SET piston. The Divisional Piston you pressed will
now store the combination of stops you illuminated in the memory you selected.
Registering the Intermanual Couplers.
The intermanual coupler's, (e.g., Swell to Great, Great to Pedal, etc.) settings can be
remembered only by the General pistons, not the Divisional pistons, that is unless, the
Divisional pistons are reconfigured. (See Section B-2).
5. LOCKING CAPTURE MEMORIES
All memories except Memory 1 may be locked or unlocked individually to prevent
unintentional or unauthorized changes to that memory's contents. Memory 1 remains
unlocked as a convenience to visiting or substitute organists. Therefore it is important
not to place any registrations you do not wish to lose in Memory 1.
