9. INSTRUMENT GENERAL SETTINGS
(SET-UP menu)
The SET-UP menu contains all the instrument’s general settings except for the settings relating to the MIDI
interface and the accessory and utility functions. To recall this menu, select the SET-UP field from the main
video page:
The functions available are as follows:
o
1st TREMULANT : adjust the speed and depth of the first tremulant for each manual (see chap.9.1).
o
2nd TREMULANT: adjust the speed and depth of the second tremulant for each manual (see chap.9.1).
o
REVERBERATION : selection of the type of room for the reverb effect (par. 9.2).
o
INT. AMPL. EQUALIZER (Internal amplification equalizer): setting of the 5-band equalizer of the
internal amplifier (par. 9.3).
o
INT. AMPL. PANNING (Internal amplification panning): setting of the stereophonic distribution of
the stops of the internal amplification system, to simulate different types of wind- chests for the various
stops (par. 9.4).
o
INT. AMPL. TUNE-UP (Internal amplification tune-up) : sets the stereophonic distribution of signal
on the side speakers (can be selected only in models equipped with side speakers, par. 9.5).
o
PROG. FUNCTION (Programmable functions): settings relating to operation of the combinations,
the pistons, the Crescendo and the trimmers underneath the manuals (par. 9.6).
o
ENC. PROGRAMMING (Enclosed programming) : program the [ENC] piston function (chap 9.7).
o
EXT. OUT EQUALIZER (External outputs equalizer): setting of the equalizers of the PROG. OUT
outputs on the rear (par. 9.8).
o
EXT. SUB EQUALIZER (External sub equalizer) : equalizer adjustment for the external output on the
back [GEN. SUB.] (par. 9.9).
o
EXT. OUT ROUTER (External outputs router): setting of the routing of the stops on the PROG.
OUT outputs on the rear to simulate the position of the wind-chests and the arrangement of the pipes
inside them (par. 9.10)
o
EXT. OUT VOLUME : setting of the volumes of the PROG. OUT outputs on the rear (par. 9.11).
o
EXT. OUT CONFIG (External out config): setting of the PROG. OUT rear outputs (par. 9.12).
o
EXT. OUT RESIZE (External out resize) : Adapts automatically the link between stops and rear outputs,
according to the amount of outputs actually used (par 9.13).
9.1 ADJUSTING THE TREMULANTS (1st TREMULANT and 2nd TREMULANT
functions)
In a pipe organ it is of the utmost importance that the air pressure remain constant, so as to obtain a steady
and sustained sound. However, mechanical devices were introduced to generate periodical variations in the
air flow. These variations created the “tremulant” effect on the sound, which made some lead registers (such
as Vox Humana) more pleasant, and the tone of the reeds colourful.
Use the [TREMULANT] plates
to activate and deactivate the effect. The 1st TREMULANT functions
adjust the speed and depth of the first tremulant of each manual.
