MIDI (MUSICAL INSTRUMENT DIGITAL INTERFACE)

Rodgers organs have some of the most advanced MIDI capabilities in the world, offering a great
variety of sound possibilities. These sounds are accessed by the MIDI coupler pistons located on
the piston rails. Two MIDI sounds can be played simultaneously in each division; Great, Swell,
and Pedal.

MIDI Coupler Settings

The MIDI Coupler Settings are set independently for each MIDI coupler.

Tone (PGM/MSB/LSB)

Selecting a MIDI sound is also known as Sending a Program Change:
1. Press and hold the SET piston, then press a MIDI coupler piston. The MIDI coupler piston
flashes, indicating a sound selection can be made. This is called the MIDI Set Mode. The
