The MISC Page
The MISC page contains an assortment of control parameters, including Leslie speed control
and vibrato/chorus selection.
PreampResp
Set this parameter On or Off to enable or disable the expression pedal part of the KB3
model. Turning this On (the default) makes KB3 programs function like stock organs. The
expression pedal in this case is more than a volume pedal; it actually functions like a “loudness
control,” varying the frequency response to compensate for the ear’s sensitivity at different
volumes. In addition, the preamp provides a de ‐ emphasis curve to compensate for the built ‐ in
tone wheel volume pre ‐ emphasis. Turning preamp response Off emulates organs that have
been modified to have a direct out (before the preamp and expression pedal).
Leakage
Controls the level of the simulated crosstalk and signal “bleed” of adjacent tone wheels in the
model. This is provided to help “dirty up” the sound to make it a bit more realistic. A setting of
‐ 96 dB gives the purest tones; other values add more simulated leakage. This level is scaled by
the drawbar levels, as well as the expression pedal level.
