CONFIGURE
PISTONS
2. Configuring General Pistons
This procedure enables pistons to control stops that are normally not controlled by those
pistons.
Important!
The Piston Configuration is common to all capture memories.
For example:
(1) Pistons can be configured to control only certain specific stops.
(2) A piston can be configured so that it will only affect the Tremulant stops.
(3) A General piston can be configured to respond like a Divisional Piston.
Note 1:
Changing the configuration of a piston
will not affect the registrations
previously remembered by that piston prior to its reconfiguration.
Note 2:
Reconfiguring a piston does not change its MIDI channel assignment.
Configuring General Pistons to only affect MIDI stops:
Advance to the ‘CONFIGURE PISTONS’ window function
(see section A-2)
.
At this point, pressing any piston will actuate stops controlled by that particular piston.
EXAMPLE CONFIGURATIONS
To reconfigure a piston to control only the MIDI stops:
Select just the MIDI stop controls. Press and hold the
SET
piston. Then, while holding
SET
, press a General piston that you want only the MIDI stops to respond on. Release
both. The General piston just pressed will now only be able to program the MIDI stop
controls and will no longer affect other stops.
To reconfigure a General Piston so it controls only the Swell Division stops:
Select
all
of the Swell division stops. Press and hold the
SET
piston. Then, while
holding
SET
, press a General piston that you want only the Swell division stops to
respond on. Release both. The General piston just pressed will now only be able to
program the Swell division stops and will no longer affect other stops.
To add the “Swell To Great” Intermanual Coupler to the Great Divisional Pistons:
Select
all
of the Great Division stops controls and also the “Swell To Great” intermanual
coupler. Press and hold the
SET
piston. Then, while holding
SET
, press each Great
Divisional Piston, in sequence while holding
SET
. Release
SET
when completed. The
“Swell To Great” coupler can now be registered to the Great Divisional pistons.
To reconfigure a General/Divisional Piston so it controls only the Tremulant stops:
Select
all
of the organ’s Tremulant sop controls. Press and hold the
SET
piston. Then,
while holding
SET,
press a General/Divisional piston. The General/Divisional piston
just pressed will now only be able to program the Tremulant stops and will no longer
affect other stops.
