THE DRAWBARS
Using the drawbars, you can adjust the volume level of the 9 classical octave foot registers (16’, 8’, 5
1/3’, 4’, 2 2/3’, 2’, 1 3/5’,1 1/3’, 1’). This is the heart of your organ sound.
Because the timbre of all natural instruments is a synthesis of different strength overtones in the overtone
series, the drawbar organ with its fully variable sine wave drawbars is capable of imitating closely all
natural instruments. In the years of composer Johann Sebastian Bach, the organ was called "König der
Instrumente" (King of all instruments) for this reason. It is of course impossible to reproduce natural
sounds exactly using the drawbar system. The organ maintains in own personal characteristic timbre,
which gives it its identity. It is nevertheless the forefather of the modern synthesizer, which can replicate
in detail the timbre of natural instruments.
All of your drawbar settings for all of the foot registers can be saved permanently within the presently
selected preset using the "STORE" button. (see: "STORE" button.) When you change presets, the
drawbar settings of the last saved version are active. You can of course save your registrations separately
for each of the three manuals.
Note: The drawbars are also used for setting the timbre of user-defined percussion. (see: HARMONIC
Button.)
