R-230, -250, -270 SECTION II 12
GREAT ORGAN: continued
the next lower octave or fifth. Used to cap the Great principal
chorus, adding brilliance and pitch definition throughout the
entire compass.
Tromba 8’ Harmonically full, more like trombone tone than trumpet tone.
Excellent reed chorus voice. Works very well as a solo reed
voice of medium brightness.
Krummhorn 8’ The tone quality of the shawm, a medieval ancestor of the
clarinet, is the basis for this light, bright, nasal reed. It can be
used alone as a solo or combined with light flues for a
somewhat rounder reed solo effect.
Tremulant Use of this stop provides a vibrato effect, natural in the human
voice and wind instruments, when used with the stops in the
Swell division.
Chimes Typical Tubular Chimes.
Swell to Great Intermanual coupler connecting all Swell stops to the Great
manual.
MIDI on Great Opens MIDI Channel to the Great.
Classic Voicing Gt-Pd See Section III, Page 19
GENERALS
Melody Coupler When playing on the Great manual, the highest key played on
the Great will automatically play all stops drawn on the Swell in
addition to those drawn on the Great. By choosing a Swell stop
such as the Festival Trumpet, the melody played by the top note
on the Great is accentuated.
Bass Coupler Similar to the Melody coupler in operation. In this case,
however, the lowest note played on the Great will also play all
stops drawn in the Pedal Division. This allows voices normally
played from the pedalboard to be heard without using the
pedalboard.
