The X3 organ has 2 sets of nine drawbars, one for the upper manual and one for the lower manual plus
2 drawbars for the bass pedal. A third bass pedal drawbar controls sustain of the bass sound. The drawbars are
used for adjusting the basic harmonics of the X3. This offers a wealth of sound shaping options. All 9 drawbars
pulled out results in 9 different harmonic tones per key.

Percussion

Percussion: ON/OFF
SOFT
FAST
3 RD
Percussion changes the attack characteristic of a note by adding an percussion signal to the note that is played.
The volume of the percussion is adjusted by the SOFT button. Decay of the percussion signal depends on the
FAST button setting. Frequency is selectable to be either the 2nd or 3rd harmonic of the played note. Percussion
is "single triggered". To hear the percussion effect for every note requires that the currently pressed key is fully
released prior to playing the next one. The percussion can only be enabled on the upper manual. All percussion
parameters like volume, decay are programmable in the Menu/Display panel (see page 20).
