5–3: EX Drawbars
5–3a
5–3b
When the Drawbar Mode is set to EX, this adds four
extra drawbars to the basic nine, with pitches
adjustable in half-step increments between 16' and two
octaves above 1'. You can select from four preset
combinations of drawbar pitches, or create your own
from scratch.
When the Drawbar Mode is set to Normal, this section
is grayed out.
Wrap-around and EX mode
Any harmonics above F#8 are "wrapped around" so
that they will sound one or more octaves lower.
Similarly, harmonics below C2 will be wrapped
around to sound an octave higher. For more details, see
"Wrap-around" on page 220.
In particular, this means that high settings of the EX
Drawbar 1-4 Pitch parameters, below, may only be
perceptible in the lower octaves of the keyboard.
5–3a: Lower EX Drawbars
These parameters control the individual EX drawbar
pitches and volume levels for the Lower split.
EX Drawbar Pitch Mode
Presets 1-4 are the CX-3's default Pitch settings for the
set of four EX Drawbars. When one of the Presets is
selected, the EX Drawbar 1-4 Pitch parameters, below,
are grayed out.
