MATCH THE REGISTRATION TO THE DRAWBAR SETTING

When you recall a Patch, the Drawbar registration stored in the Patch will be heard, regardless of the actual Drawbar settings.
If you move any Drawbar, its position will automatically change to its physical position, The rest of the Drawbars will remain at their
Patch settings if you do not move them.
However, if you select a Patch with a particular Drawbar setting and you wish to change the Drawbar registration instantly to the current
physicakl Drawbar registration, you can do so by using the PRESET SELECTOR Touch Buttons.
For example, suppose you have selected the Upper "A#" Adjust Preset Key, with a physical Drawbar setting of 88 8000 000. Suppose you
then select a Patch with a Drawbar setting of 86 8426 216.
If you wish instantly to switch to the "A#" Drawbar setting, do the following
1. Press and Hold the [UPPER] PRESET SELECTOR Touch Button until the LED blinks.
2. When the LED blinks, release the [UPPER] Touch Button. The instrument will now sound with the physical Drawbar registration.
All other Patch settings will be retained.
Use the [UPPER] Touch Button for the Upper "A#" Drawbars and the [LOWER] Touch Button for Lower "A #" and Pedal Drawbars.
NOTE: The Drawbar Control Mode must be set to "ALWAYS A#" in order for this feature to work. See page 118 for more information
about Drawbar Control Mode.

The two brown Drawbars located between the Drawbars for the Upper and Lower Manuals control the sounds produced by the Pedal
division. The first Pedal Drawbar produces a composite tone at 16' pitch for a deep foundation bass, while the second Pedal Drawbar
produces a composite tone at 8' pitch, or one octave higher. The registration of the Pedals appears in the center of the display - 16´ on
the left and 8´ on the right.
