In the original B-3 the Percussion effect is generated by a single en-
velope generator that controls either the 2nd or 3rd partial. The en-
velope “opens up” for a short moment in the beginning of the sound
when you press the key(s). The Percussion effect can be set to control
either the 2nd or 3rd partial. The envelope decay time can be set to
Fast or Slow and the volume characteristics to Normal or Soft. You
activate and deactivate the Percussion effect by pressing the
O
N
but-
ton.
Like on the original B-3, the Percussion is a single-triggered non-legato effect. By “single-triggered” we
mean that the percussion is only present when you hit the keys when no other note is sounding. In other
words, if you play a note or a chord and then add on more notes without releasing the previously pressed
keys, there will be no percussion effect in the new notes. You have to release all keys to be able to play
new notes with the percussion effect. Also, like on the original B-3, in Normal Percussion mode the sus-
tain level is significantly lower than in Soft Percussion mode (or with the Percussion effect disabled).

in SOFT mode

envelope in NORMAL mode

lines represent the current
drawbar level without
Percussion)
