Descriptions of Parameters
KB3 Editor Parameters
Drawbars 1–9 (Drawbar)
The nine parameters correspond to the nine drawbar controls (Sliders AÐD and Mod Wheel).
Each can have a value from 0 (drawbar fully in) to 8 (drawbar fully out)
DrawbarSteps
Affects the transition between drawbar levels for each of the drawbar controls.
Smooth
Levels range from 0Ð127 (but still represented as 0Ð8 in the display). Smoother transition
between levels than Normal.
Normal
Levels range from 0Ð8, like actual organ drawbars.
Preamp Response (PreampResp)
Enables/disables the preamp+expression pedal part of the KB3 model.
On
Makes KB3 programs function like stock organs. The expression pedal in this case is more than a
volume pedal; it actually functions like a Òloudness control,Ó varying the frequency response to
compensate for the earÕs sensitivity at different volumes. In addition, the preamp provides a
deemphasis curve to compensate for the built-in tone wheel volume preemphasis.
Off
Emulates organs that have been modiÞed to have a direct out (before the preamp and expression
pedal).
Leakage
Controls the level of the simulated crosstalk and signal ÒbleedÓ of adjacent tone wheels in the
model. This is provided to help Òdirty upÓ the sound to make it a bit more realistic. A setting of
-96 dB gives the purest tones; other values add more simulated leakage. This level is scaled by
the drawbar levels, as well as the expression pedal level.
Amp
Standard amplitude (volume) control.
