Tutti I And Tutti Ii; Setting Pistons - Allen Organ Company Protégé LD-34 Owner's Manual

IV.

TUTTI I and TUTTI II

The Tutti I and II pistons are sets for full organ registrations. Tutti II has a larger, much louder
registration, than Tutti I. The Tutti's are turned on and off by pressing manual thumb pistons TUTTI
I or TUTTI II. The pistons are "toggled" meaning that pressing them a second time reverses the ON
or OFF setting of the corresponding Tutti. Only one Tutti can be turned ON at a time. Pressing the
other Tutti piston that is not turned ON will turn OFF the Tutti that was ON and turn ON the Tutti
that was OFF. The Cancel piston button will turn OFF the Tuttis.
Red signal lights illuminate when Tutti I or II is in operation. These lights are labeled and located on
the Bar Graph indicator. A second set of Tutti's can be programmed by the organist. Like the
Crescendo, indiscriminate use of Tutti's should be avoided. See the Console Controller™ Guide later
in this manual for more information relating to changing secondary Tutti's settings.

SETTING PISTONS

Your Allen Organ's capture system lets you set stop registration combinations in each of its
memories. The LD-34 contains ten General pistons, 5 of which are duplicated on toe studs; six
divisional pistons for both Swell and Great divisions and four Pedal divisional toe studs. The LD-34
contains a (16) memory combination action. This means you have a total of 160 possible General
piston combinations as well as 256 possible divisional combinations (Swell/Great/Pedal).
To set a General capture combination:
First, select and depress the stops you wish to save.
Press and hold the SET Piston.
Press and release the desired GENERAL piston.
Finally, release the SET Piston.
Remember, the General pistons are customarily set from soft to loud using graduated stop
combinations. The pistons you have set "remember" the registration combinations that you have
assigned to each of them. Each time a General piston is pressed, the registration assigned to it is
activated. You can change stop registration combinations at any time by repeating the above
procedures. For more advanced information on setting capture combinations in multiple memories
see the Console Controller™ guide later in this manual.
The piston setting process for divisional pistons is the same as SETTING GENERAL PISTONS
described above. Only Swell stops can be set with the Swell divisional pistons, Great stops with the
Great divisional pistons and Pedal stops with the Pedal divisional toe studs.
