EXPRESSION PEDALS
The R-270 features two expression pedals. The pedal on the left expresses the Great and
Pedal divisions, while the center expression pedal affects the Swell.
CRESCENDO PEDAL
One master Crescendo, for all divisions, gradually adds stops as this pedal is opened.
Indicator lights show the relative position of the pedal. Crescendo B is a secondary
Crescendo that can be programmed by the organist. Indiscriminate use of the Crescendo
pedal, in lieu of careful registration, should be avoided.
TUTTI I & II
The Tutti I and II are settings of full organ registration. Tutti II is a fuller registration
than Tutti I. The Tuttis are turned on by using manual pistons located beneath the Swell
manual directly above the Cancel button. The pistons are reversible. Pressing them will
turn the corresponding Tutti on or off. The Cancel button will also turn off the Tuttis.
Pressing Tutti II will cancel Tutti I. Red signal lights, appropriately labeled and located
on the right side of the console to the left of the expression indicators, turn on when
Tutti I or II is in operation. A second set of Tuttis can be programmed by the organist.
Like the Crescendo, indiscriminate use of these devices should be avoided.
“R” RECALL PISTON
The Recall Piston, when pressed, will return the organ to the combination used just
before the current combination.
