In the organ world, the flutes buttons are known as TABS.  The TABS are for different octaves of organ

sound.  The 8’ TAB plays the pitch of note that is actually played.

E.g.

8’ only on Upper plays middle C when the middle C note is played.

The 16’ plays the octave below. The 4’ plays the octave above. The 2’ and the 1’ play the subsequent

octaves  above  that.    The  TABS  with  fractional  numbers  actually  play  a  different  note  to  C.  It  is

therefore important not to use the fractions without some of the whole numbers.

If all seven TABS are switched on then seven notes will sound simultaneously when each Upper note is

played. Try switching off all of the TABS. Hold down middle C - while continuing to hold this note

switch on the individual TABS from right to left one at a time.  Each individual pitch of organ sound

can be heard. By mixing the TABS very full organ sounds can be obtained when just playing one note.

Generally speaking the mellower organ sounds are provided by the TABS to the left with the higher

numbers 16’, 8’, etc.  More treble sounds are provided by the TABS with the lower numbers 1’, 2’, etc.

The 2’ and the 1’ TABS at the top of the keyboard may provide high frequency sounds that are outside

the range of some people’s hearing.

NOTE: To Turn the UPPER FLUTES Section ON, the UPPER FLUTES BUTTON needs to be

activated (directly below the TEMPO/DATA buttons).

ATTACK

It is possible to have two different types of Flute sounds. When the ATTACK is activated the Flute

section will provide a sound more akin to a Tibia having a slow response when the note is depressed.

When the ATTACK is Off the Flute section will have a sharper and more percussive attack typically

found in Jazz and Modern music.

MOTION EFFECT

The MOTION EFFECT is a simulation of a rotary speaker. There are two effects Slow and Fast.

The Fast Motion Effect provides a fast tremulant (Doppler effect). The Slow Motion Effect cancels the

Fast and provides a slow tremulant.

SUSTAIN

Sustain is available in each section.  If you strike a piano key and hold it down, the sound lingers, and

gradually  fades  out;  this  fading  out  is  called  sustain.  Generally,  the  sustain  feature  adds  a  lingering

quality to your music. With the higher flutes (4’ and 2’) and percussion voices, sustain could help you

achieve a nice celeste, or music box, effect. Sustain is very effective in ballads
