37 Playing the VR-700 What is the Wheel Brake? This simulates the way in which the tonewheels stop rotating when you switch off the power on a tonewheel organ. Since the amplifier of a tonewheel organ consisted of analog circuits using vacuum tubes, it would continue to produce sound for a short time even after the power was turned off.
38 Creating Organ Sounds Tonewheel organs are a type of organ that produce their sound by means of toothed wheels called “tonewheels.” Tonewheel organs contain numerous tonewheels, with each wheel corresponding to a key. The tonewheels are rotated by a motor.
39 Creating Organ Sounds 1. Press either the HARMONIC BAR [UPPER] button or the [LOWER] button to select the part whose sound you want to create. fig.pnl-assgn.
40 Creating Organ Sounds What is footage? This comes from the length of pipes in a pipe organ. On a pipe organ, the pipes that sound the fundamental pitch of each key are considered by convention to have a length of eight feet (8’).
41 Creating Organ Sounds Percussion adds a sharply decaying component to the beginning of the sound, giving the sound more crispness. When you play legato, percussion is added only to the first note you play. When you play staccato, percussion is added to each note.
42 Creating Organ Sounds By pressing the [VIBRATO] button or [CHORUS] button to turn it on, you can apply vibrato or chorus to the organ sound. ig.pnl-vibcho.eps * You can’t apply vibrato and chorus simultaneously. Nor can you apply vibrato or chorus with differing settings to the upper part, lower part, and pedal part.
