Memory lock

In order to store personal registrations, altered general crescendo steps, volume, tune and
transposer settings and MIDI-stop settings, the memory has to be "opened" with key switch
MEMORY LOCK . As soon as the memory is "opened" with the key switch the lamp in the
SET-piston will light up.

Volume controls

Your instrument may be fitted with one or several of these volume controls.

Expression pedals

Depending on the number of manuals, one or several expression pedals may be found on
your instrument. Usually each division is assigned its own expression pedal, so that the
volume of the various divisions can be adjusted independently (of each other).
The pedalboard has no expression pedal of its own. Usually the volume of the pedalboard
can be adjusted together with the volume of the great division.
The number of expression pedals can be reduced by adjusting the volumes of the swell
division along with the choir division with one expression pedal.
If your instrument (with more than two expression pedals) has been fitted with a thumb
piston S/S, all the expression pedals can be coupled to the expression pedal of the swell
division. By pressing this thumb piston, the volume of all the divisions can be adjusted
simultaneously with one expression pedal, (the one of the swell division).
If your instrument has been fitted with expression pedal indicators, the position of the
various expression pedals can be viewed at one glance.

Rotary controls keyboard volume

For technical reasons most pipe organs have (even if they have an expression pedal) an
expression pedal for the swell division only. The name swell indicates this in fact.
Just like a pipe organ (Monarke models "Van Rhijn", "Gothique", "Positief" and "Van Eyck")
the instrument can be fitted with one expression pedal for the swell division.
Still, it may be desirable that the volume of the other divisions can be adjusted.
To realize this, the "missing" expression pedals are fitted as rotary controls and added to
the other (rotary) controls on the console.
The expression pedals (or the rotary controls) work independently of the general volume
setting.
