Value Explanation
For advanced MIDI users, this allows the creation of a "multitrack" or layered
sequence using an external MIDI sequencer and sound module. It optimizes the

console for layering of MIDI instruments – no organ stop or piston data is recorded.
(Default setting is Off.) The transmission of note and volume data on all Master Channels is disabled. MIDI
Update is turned off. MIDI couplers do not send program changes when there is a
MIDI Start command.
(This menu appears only when Multitrack is Off.) This allows the organ stop data

organ controls another Rodgers console.
For MIDI sounds affected by velocity sensitivity, this determines the keyboard
touch sensitivity of all manuals – how much pressure is needed to achieve a high

release both. A "MIDI Save" message will appear in the display.
Default is 17. In most cases this should not be changed. When multiple consoles
are controlled via MIDI, each can use a different ID number, thereby allowing
