PIPE VOICE CHIFF
This allows you to set the amount of Chiff or attack for each individual Pipe Voice.
You can select “OFF” (no Chiff), “SOFT” (sounds the chiff noise slightly), “MID” (medium amount
of Chiff), or “LOUD” (maximum anmount of Chiff).Sounds the chiff noise maximum.
NOTE: The Chiff parameter does not affect the Reed voices (Hautbois 8’ and Trompete 8’).
❼
PIPE VOICE PAN
This allows you to to simulate different placements of pipe ranks.
You can select from “L64” (the sound will be in the Left channel only) through “R63” (the sound
will be in the Right channel only). Setting this parameter to “-C-” will locate the sound in the center.
NOTE: The Audio Mode must be set to “ST” (stereo) inorder for this parameter to take effect.
❽
PIPE VOICE IMAGING
This allows you
to simulate different arrangements of pipes.
You can select “LtoR” (Left to Right - the pipes producing lower pitches are on the left. Playing notes chromati-
cally going up on the keyboard will cause the pipes on the left to sound first), “RtoL” (Right to Left - the pipes
producing higher pitches are on the right. Playing notes chromatically going up on the keyboard will cause
the pipes on the left to sound first), “PYR” (Pyramid - when notes are played chromatically going up on the
keyboard, the notes start in the center and alternate between left and right), “INV” (Inverted Pyramid - when
notes are played chromatically going up on the keyboard, the notes start at one end and alternate between left
and right until they meet in the center) or “FIX” (no imaging - all the notes sound from the center).
WHAT IS “CHIFF?”
There are two classifications of or-
gan pipes based on the method
used to produce sound. “Flue”
or “labial” pipes produce sound
by means of sending a stream of
air through the body of the pipe,
while “reed” or “lingual” pipes uti-
lize a beating reed in a manner
similar to a reed instrument such as
a clarinet.
A flue pipe can be voiced in such
a way so that a short attack tran-
sient is heard at the onset of the
tone. The term, “chiff,” was coined
by pipe organ makers to describe
the sound. The amount of chiff
can vary depending on the maker
and the effect desired - some or-
gan builders voice the flue pipes
with little or no chiff while others,
perhaps influenced by the “neo-
baroque” school of organ building,
deliberately strive to include the
chiff effect.
WHAT IS “PIPE VOICE
IMAGING?”
The pipes of a pipe organ are ar-
ranged into sets called ranks. Each
ranks consists of pipes represent-
ing a specific sound on the organ -
Open Diapason, Trompette, etc. (In
keeping with the different philoso-
phies of organ sound, many organ
stop names are of European origin;
hence the use of French, German,
Dutch, etc.)
The pipes of each rank are support-
ed by an assembly called a chest.
The pipes can be arranged in many
different ways on the chest. The
pipe arrangement chosen by the
maker depends on several things
- aesthetics, musical, etc. - but the
four most common ones are shown
on the left.
The two pipe placement schemes
on the immediate left are some-
times referred to as “C-C#” place-
ment due to chromatic notes being
separated.
