MT = Mean-tone

Thumb piston for selecting the Mean-tone temperament.
See also at "Mean-tone" and at "Choice of temperament".

PG = Programming General crescendo

Thumb piston enabling the stop combinations of the general crescendo to be changed.
See also at "Using the general crescendo".

PGM = Programming General crescendo and MIDI-stops

Thumb piston enabling the stop combinations of the general crescendo to be changed or
the MIDI-stops (or switches) to be programmed.
See also at "Using the general crescendo" and at "Programmable MIDI".
PP – T
The fixed combinations (presets) are groups of stops, set up according to fixed musical
standards, starting from PP (pianissimo: very soft) to T (tutti: very loud) inclusive.
The working of the T-piston is twofold. When you are playing with a registration of your own
or with a fixed combination (from PP to T inclusive), you will get the full organ by pressing
the T-piston; the normal effect of this thumb piston. However, by pressing this thumb piston
again, you will recover the preceding registration.
These fixed combinations have been established during construction of the instrument and
cannot be changed by the user.
On instruments with lighted stops, pressing one of the preset pistons shows which stops
are switched on.
On instruments with moving drawstops, pressing one of the preset pistons shows which
stops are switched on (by their position).
It is also possible to manually switch stops on or off within a fixed combination.

RO = Reeds off

On the far right of the fixed combinations is the thumb piston RO (Reeds Off). Pressing this
thumb piston switches off all the reeds in one go. As long as the RO-piston is pressed, no
reeds can be switched on.
SEQ– and SEQ+
If your instrument has been fitted with these, 32, 64, 128 or 256 registrations of your own
choice can be stored into the memory of the capture system. These registrations can be
recalled at any given moment.
A capture system is always composed of a number of memory groups (4, 8, 16 or 32 to be
selected with the thumb pistons – and + or from M1 to M4 inclusive). Each memory group
has eight locations (pistons from 1 to 8 inclusive). A registration of your own choice can be
stored at any place.
So recalling a stored capture combination always has to be done by means of two pistons.
By means of the sequence pistons the entire memory can be run through consecutively.
With the SEQ– to lower memory locations and with the SEQ+ to a higher memory location.
