Stop Input Features

• Up to 2048 stops available with expansion modules. Each switch-input board has a 64-stop capacity, wired in an 8x8 matrix, or in parallel.
• Automatic Pedal, Automatic Solo, Pizzicato, Sustain/Sustenuto, Transposer, etc.
• Can directly drive LED push-button stops, or CLASSIC LRT (Lighted Rocker Tabs).
• SAMDB boards are required to drive dual-magnetic stop actions (tabs or drawknobs).
• Can connect Syndyne lighted drawknobs (requires LAMPDR-1 lamp driver board).
• 256-piston capacity, wired in an 16x16 matrix of any combination of generals, divisionals, reversibles, or other special functions. (Can have parallel 12V inputs via SIB-1P.)
• Double-touch pistons can be accommodated, if required. These are used in theatre organs.
• Additional piston-inputs available for effects and traps in theatre organs.

Memory Features

• Multiple memories (up to 254 available depending on the amount of EEPROM memory required per memory.
• Up to 16 "quick access" programmable Memory-Level-Select pistons.
• Up to 8 "quick access" programmable MIDI-stop Memory-Select pistons.
• User programmable Crescendo pedal sequence; up to 4 independent Crescendi.
• Up to 8 user programmable Sforzando reversibles.
• Up to 8 user programmable Ventils (reversibles).
• Up to 8 lighted control reversibles with indicator lights (Zimbelstern, etc.).
• Up to 48 coupler reversibles.
• Up to 16 user-programmable stop reversibles.
• Settable Tab Reversibles for special stops.
• 'On', 'Through', 'To', and 'Pizzicato' couplers as well as 'unison-off'.
• Save-and-Restore Piston, Crescendo, Reg. Sequencer settings, etc., to/from a Sequencer or PC.
• Programmable pistons and toe studs.
• Recall - allows return to registration prior to a piston press.
• 4 x 2-digit numeric-display interface (for Crescendo stage, Registration Sequencer stage, Memory level, Transposer, and Set-up functions). Additional 2 or 3 digit displays optional.
• Up to 254 MIDI-stop memories.
• 250 stage programmable Registration Sequencer, using UP/DOWN pistons, with editing features, for recital convenience; switchable to "piston sequencer" mode.

Display Features

• Provision for VFD interface.
• Provisions for analog (i.e. swell shoe) bargraph volume meters.

Input Features

• Direct input from matrixed keyboards (5 61-note manuals and 32-note pedalboard).
• Compatible with CLASSIC Optical Keyswitch boards, including optional velocity sensing.
• Input from parallel-wired stops, keyboards, and pistons using optional Switch Input Boards (SIB), or via "packaged units" (CCU/OCU).
• Second-touch keyswitch inputs available with Second Touch Board.
• Additional "floating divisions" allowed.
• 8-channel ADC (analog-to-digital converter) for expression pedals, tuning, or other variable-voltage devices.
• Includes provision for dual console installations

Coupling Features

• Full inter- and intra-manual coupling (sub, unison, and super) between all divisions.
• Auto-pedal function plays low-octave pedal key corresponding to lowest note played in lower octaves of the Great (or other manual).
• Solo coupler plays high (melody) note from another keyboard or division.
• 12-step Transposer controlled via rotary switch, or UP/DOWN (multi-function) pistons and numeric display, with "in-use" indicator light.
• Full internal logical processing of traps and effects for theatre organs..

Control Features

• High-speed serial output of key, stop, etc. data to PCCs or Voice Generators boards.
• May control any combination of MIDI sound devices, organ pipes, and digital sample playback organ sound generators.
• 3 levels of locks on combinations to avoid tampering or inadvertent changes.
• Includes provision for dual console installations

Connections

• All control connections to the board are Molex-type plug-ins or ribbon cables.
• MIDI connections are via standard 5-pin DIN connectors.

Setup/Diagnostic Features

• Extensive set-up capability to aid the builder/organist in configuring the software to suit his requirements.
• Extensive built-in diagnostics aid the organ builder/technician in diagnosing and correcting wiring errors, electrical faults, etc.
• Compatible with "Organ Assistant" software for Windows, which allows backup of organ set-up and memory data.

Other Specs

• Power: 8-15V (uses on-board 5V regulator) @ 0.15 amp.
