will blink.
NOTE
 
Never turn off the power while parameters are being saved.
 
 
ON CLICK LEVEL (0–31)
 
Specifies the level of the click sound that occurs when a 
key is pressed (On). Increasing this value will increase the 
volume.
 
 
OFF CLICK LEVEL (0–31)
 
Specifies the level of the click sound that occurs when a 
key is released (Off). Increasing this value will increase the 
volume.
 
 
PERCUSSION SOFT LEVEL (0–15)
 
Sets the percussion volume when percussion is set to Soft 
(the [SOFT] button’s indicator is lit). Increasing this value 
will increase the volume of percussion.
 
 
PERCUSSION NORMAL LEVEL (0–15)
 
Sets the percussion volume when percussion is set to 
Normal (the [SOFT] button’s indicator is dark). Increasing 
this value will increase the volume of percussion.
 
 
PERCUSSION SLOW TIME (0–127)
 
Sets the speed at which the percussion sound will decay 
when percussion is set to Slow (the [SLOW] button’s 
indicator is lit). Increasing this value causes the percussion 
to decay more slowly.
 
 
PERCUSSION FAST TIME (0–127)
 
Sets the speed at which the percussion sound will decay 
when percussion is set to Fast (the [SLOW] button’s 
indicator is dark). Increasing this value causes the 
percussion to decay more slowly.
 
 
PERCUSSION RECHARGE TIME (0–10)
 
Specifies the percussion charge time that determines the 
time from when the keys are released until percussion is 
recharged. Increasing this value will increase the time 
necessary for percussion to recharge, causing the 
percussion sound to be smaller for rapidly repeated notes.

PERCUSSION H-BAR LEVEL
On tone wheel organs, percussion was produced by an 
analog circuit. This meant that if only a very short time 
elapsed from when the keys were released until the next 
key was pressed, the percussion circuit was unable to 
recharge fully, and the percussion sound that was added 
would therefore be lower in volume. This also meant 
that even if legato was broken during a rapid trill, etc., 
an appropriate amount of percussion was added. The 
percussion charge time parameter adjusts this charge 
time.
