In this mode, you adjust the settings for the Equalizer and Reverb.
An Equalizer is used to adjust the tonal quality. The built-in Equalizer consists of 3 bands and
a a recreation of the unique “tone” control that was part of the vintage B-3. The Bass and
Treble bands are handled by “shelf” equalizers, and the Mid band is handled by parametric
control.
The Reverb effect is for adding the atmosphere of a concert hall, room, and other chambers.
To locate this mode:
Press the [MENU/EXIT] button for the MENU, select PAGE B by the [PAGE] button, and then
press the [4] EQ/REV button.
EQUALIZER
1. TONE CONTROL
This is a simulated original B-3 TONE CONTROL. Its response is unique, but its basic
response is to gently cut the overall treble.
The setting range is -9 to +9, and it becomes neutral when set at “0”.
“-1” corresponds to the maximum of the original B-3 tone control, “-5”, the middle, “-9”,
the minimum. The tone control found on the original B-3, its value can not be set at “+”,
but on this model it’s possible to boost treble to some extent.
NOTE: You can locate this page by moving [BASS] or [TREBLE] knob pressing the [MENU/
EXIT] button.
2. GAIN - BASS
3. GAIN - MIDDLE
5. GAIN - TREBLE
These are for doing the Boost/Cut of Bass, Mid-range and Treble respectively.
The setting range is -9 to +9. It is neutral at 0.
4. FREQUENCY - MIDDLE
This is for setting the Central Frequency to vary at Gain - Middle (3).
The setting range is 180Hz - 2.9kHz.
NOTE: These parameters are Preset Parameters and are recorded to each Combination Preset.
6. KNOB - BASS
7. KNOB - TREBLE
These sets the functions to assign to the [BASS], [TREBLE] knobs.
Bass and Middle gains can be assigned to the [BASS] knob, and Treble gain and Tone
Control to the [TREBLE] knob.
NOTE: These parameters are global parameters and are recorded at the time the value is set. It
is common for each Combination Preset.
THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THE MIDDLE FREQUENCY
The frequency response of the horn rotor in the Leslie
speaker is not flat. It has a peak from 1kHz to 3kHz.
This peak is effective in “cutting through” any ensemble
playing.
If you use this organ through line out without a Leslie
speaker, you can duplicate effect by setting the FRE-
QUENCY - MIDDLE to approximately 2kHz, and the
GAIN - MIDDLE to “+”.
