Keyboard Transfer is a function to switch the manuals of the Great and the Swell.
When Keyboard Transfer is active manual 1 is the Swell manual and manual 2 is
the Great manual.
Activate the Keyboard Transfer with the KT piston.
CH: Chorus

Reeds off is a function to switch off all reed stops simultaneously. As long as this
piston is pressed, no reed stops can be activated. When this function is switched

double bass tones.
