Note: The sustain (or, better, the lack thereof) of the voice
"Banjo" is fixed and cannot be influenced by the "Long
Sustain" switch nor the left foot lever.
4. Verify that the channel selector "Piano right/left" actually
assigns the piano voices to one or the other channel. Check
the operation of the switch "Piano to Wersivoice". Recipe for
a real Honky-Tonk piano: Select the voice "Honky To n k";
assign the " Piano to Wersivoice" and set the Wersivoice I to
the "Choir" mode (all other switches up).

36 (partially shown in Fig. 78).
3. Pull all 7 drawbars for the pedals halfway.
4. Depress the button " Drawbars" in the bottom row on the
right control panel.
5. Try each pedal. The combined pedal draw bar signal should
appear from both speakers without sustain.
6. Check the pedal drawbar voices using each of the brown
drawbars singly.
7. In addition, depress the button "Short Sustain" on the right
control panel (bottom row). The draw bar sounds should
exhibit some sustain after the release of the pedal.
8. In addition, depress the button "Long Sustain" which should

Contrabass belong to the 8' rank. The sustain controls d o
not influence the fixed stops.
11. Depress the button "Bass guitar" and release all other
buttons of the pedal group (bottom row). Play the pedals and

rotation for a more traditional sound or fully clockwise for the
harder sound more common today. The sustain controls d o
not influence the bass guitar.
12. Verify the action of the switch "Pedals to Wersivoice". Check
the following interesting setting: "String bass", "Pedals to
Wersivoice" and the Wersivoice I set to "Choir".

connectors to the pins " RE'; " RA " and "A3" (see text
associated with Fig. 70 in regard to the pins "A3").
2. Set all channel selectors to "right" (up).
3. Play anything on the various manuals and check the action
of the swell pedal.
4. Set the swell pedal to its "low stop" and hold a drawbar
chord on a manual. Adjust the trim pot " Null" on the right
preamplifier board V V 1 such that the resulting sound is at a
