Expression - Hammond A-405SP Owner's Manual

13. MODULATION - EXTERNAL ZONE SWELL (P)
14. MODULATION - EXTERNAL ZONE GREAT (P)
15. MODULATION - EXTERNAL ZONE PEDAL (G)
Th ese are for deciding whether or not to send the Modulation Wheel information to
each External Zone. It is sent at ON, and cut at OFF.

EXPRESSION

16. EXPRESSION - SOURCE (G)
Determines what to use for controlling the Expression.
AUTO: The Expression is controlled usually with the Expression Pedal, and with the Sequence Data
when the Sequencer is playing.
INT: The Expression Pedal is always controlled with the Expression Pedal. You may use this when
you want to control the Expression Pedal with your foot, even while the Sequencer is playing.
MIDI: The Expression is controlled by receiving CC#11 from the MIDI IN terminal through the con-
trol channel. You may use this when you want to control the Expression with the external
sequencer.
17. EXPRESSION - MONITOR
Displays the present Expression value. You can fi nd the causes for such trouble as "no
sound", or "non-function" of the Expression Pedal, by checking if the Expression value
changes normally. Also, this can be a guide when you want to "fade in" from "quiet".
18. EXPRESSION - MINIMUM LEVEL (G)
It sets the output level when the Expression is minimum.
Th e setting range is OFF, -40dB to 0dB. "OFF" makes no sound when the Expression
is minimum, "0dB" does not reduce volume level.
19. EXPRESSION - LIMIT LF (G)
20. EXPRESSION - LIMIT HF (G)
Th ese are for setting the level to maintain for low and high frequencies when the Expres-
sion is minimum.
Th e setting range is OFF, -40dB to -5dB. Th is function does not work at "OFF". Oth-
erwise the level is maintained even if the Expression is minimum.
21. EXPRESSION - CURVE (S)
Th is parameter sets how the velue should vary corresponding to the depth of the expres-
sion pedal. Th e setting range is 1 to 3. Refer to the curves on the bottom right fi gure.
NOTE: Thie parameter is System Parameter. This parameter will be recorded when set. It is com-
mon in each Combination Preset. It is not recorded to the setup.
EXPRESSION LIMIT
One of the human ear's characteristics is that
when the volume falls, the sound of high or
low frequencies becomes diffi cult to hear.
On this model, it is rectifi ed. The perceived fre-
quency range is maintained no matter what
overall volume is chosen.
The similar function is adopted on most home
audio equipment. It is called the "loudness"
function.

NOTE: The parameters by the names with

bination Preset. (G) is for "Global".
These parameters will be recorded
when set, and are common in each
Combination Preset.
