Chorale 8 Owner’s Manual
1. General combinations: this section contains the instrument’s general adjustable combinations.
When a combination is recalled, the light of the relative stop illuminates to confirm its activation.
The [NEXT] pistons can also be used to select combinations one by one in an upward direction and
[PREV.] for the same function in a downward direction (combination sequencers).
2. Division combinations: this organ has six adjustable division combinations for Swell (2A), Great
(2B), Choir (2C) and the pedal board (2D). When a combination is recalled, the light of the relative
piston illuminates to confirm its activation.
In division combinations, the user is only able to set
the configuration of the section associated to
the selected combination .
There is also a piston marked [HR] (Handle Registers) beside the general and dedicated combinations;
also known as 0, when it is on it automatically memorises the register status. This piston’s main
function is to restore, during use of the combinations, the “hand-made” stop setup created when the
[HR] button was on. Remember that an HR setup is not modified if the stops are switched on and off
by hand when a combination on the same section is selected (i.e. with the HR off).
N.B.
The contents of the HR are not retained when the organ is switched off.
2.2 THE MANUAL SPLITTER CONTROLS
The pistons used to recall the adjustable combinations, Tutti, couplers and other accessory functions are
placed in the areas between the manuals.
