the waveform. You can not adjust the volume of the inherent leakage noise.
BType2 BT BT BT BT ype2: ype2 ype2 ype2
Traditional tone-wheel sound of the original B-3. Leakage noise is not included
in the waveform. You can add and adjust the volume of leakage noise.
Mellow Mellow
Mellow Mellow: Transparent sine wave Mellow
2. LEAKAGE
This is for setting the volume of Leakage Noise.
Setting Range is 0 to 127. The more you increase the value, the louder gets the volume.
3. FOLD-BACK - LOW
This allows you to set which key the FOLD BACK of the 16' Drawbar starts. (Fold-back:
Repeating the same octave in a certain range on the manual.)
The first key (= the far left key on the manual, next to the Preset Keys) is displayed as
"1C". The setting range is 1C - 2C.
4. FOLD-BACK - HIGH
This allows you to set which key the FOLD BACK of the 1' Drawbar starts (= repeat the
same octave) in the upper-most range. The set range is 4G - 5C.

TONE-WHEEL SET
Each Tone-wheel Set allows you to make fine adjust-
ment. (P . 92)
LEAKAGE NOISE
On the original B-3, while the sound created by a cer-
tain tone-wheel goes through various circuits, the
sounds of the other plural tone-wheels are mixed. This
is called Leakage Noise. Leakage noise itself is unnec-
essary for synthesizing pure sounds. However, it is
accepted rather as one of the unique characteristics of
Hammond Organs.
Leakage Noise allows you to make finer adjustment.
(P . 92)
FOLD-BACK
As the number of the tonewheels was limited on the
original B-3, the organs were designed to repeat the
same octave in the upper-most or lower-most range.
This feature of this organ will simulate that.
