11 using the advanced features Your Leslie Speaker has a number of Advanced Features which allow you a great deal of control over the sound and performance you desire. To see the Default Setting for each of these Advanced Features, please consult page 27 of this Guide. The Leslie Advanced Features allow you to make the following changes to the organ: 1.
12 Ë A Brief History of the Leslie Speaker The Leslie Speaker was first developed in the late 1930's by Donald J. Leslie as a way to improve the sound of then-current Hammond Organs. Mr. Leslie found that rotating a baffle in front of a stationary speaker added a very pleasing “tremolo-type” sound to organ music. This technique is a musical application of the “Doppler effect,” which is the apparent variation in pitch that a stationary listener hears from a moving sound source.
13 Ë Slow Speed This Advanced Feature allows you to select the Slow Speed Setting that you prefer for either the Horn or the Low Rotor. You can select from “0,” (rotor stopped) through “99” for the Horn and from “0l” through “9” for the Low Rotor. TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch the FUNCTION SELECT switch to select either HORN or LOW ROTOR. The LED (red for Horn, green for Low) will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select Slow Speed using the Function Selector.
14 Ë Rise Time This Advanced Feature allows you to select the time required for the Rotors to go from Slow to Fast. You can select from “0.2” seconds through “12” seconds. TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch the FUNCTION SELECT switch to select either HORN or LOW ROTOR. The LED (red for Horn, green for Low) will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select Rise Time using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
15 Ë Brake Time This Advanced Feature allows you to select the time required for the rotors to come to a complete stop from Fast mode. You can select from “0.2” seconds through “12” seconds. TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch the FUNCTION SELECT switch to select either HORN or LOW ROTOR. The LED (red for Horn, green for Low) will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select Brake Time using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
16 Ë Horn Character This Advanced Feature allows you to select the Resonance frequency for the Horn Rotor. You can select “1.0” (1.0kHz), “1.5” (1.5kHz), “2.0” (2.0kHz) or “Fl” (flat). TRY THIS: [ MIDI ] 1. Touch the FUNCTION SELECT switch to select HORN ROTOR. The red LED will light. 2. Select Horn Character / Mic Distance using the Function Selector. HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
17 Ë Microphone Angle and Distance When a Leslie Speaker cabinet or cabinets are used in a large facility such as an auditorium or outdoor arena, the Leslie(s) are frequently “miked” to insure that the sound carries adequately. Sound technicians have discovered that the placement of the microphones greatly affects the character of the sound heard by the audience from the Leslie Speaker(s) (see the diagram below).
18 Ë Cabinet Resonance This Advanced Feature allows you to simulate the resonance of a Leslie Model 122 Speaker cabinet. You can turn this feature “ON” or “OFF.” TRY THIS: 1. Touch the FUNCTION SELECT switch to select LOW ROTOR. The green LED will light. [ MIDI ] Touch & Hold LOW HORN ROTOR ROTOR 2. FUNCTION SELECT Select Cab. Res. using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog. Ch] Rise Time [Mod Rx] Fall Time [Exp Rx] Brake Time [S/F Type] Rotor Direction /Mic Angle [S/F Cont.
19 Ë MIDI Control Channel This Advanced Feature allows the Leslie to receive MIDI Controller information. You can select MIDI Channels “1” through “16” as well as “OFF.” TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch and Hold the FUNCTION SELECT switch for approximately 1 second. Both LEDs will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select Control Ch using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
20 Ë MIDI Modulation Wheel Receive This Advanced Feature allows you to use a Modulation Wheel to continuously vary the Rotor Speed of the Leslie Speaker. You can turn this feature “ON” or “OFF.” TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch and Hold the FUNCTION SELECT switch for approximately 1 second. Both LEDs will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select Mod Rx using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
21 Ë S/F (Slow/Fast) Foot Switch Type This Advanced Feature allows you to set up the mode for the Slow/Fast Foot Switch. You can select “LA” (Latch, or alternate press-on-press-off mode) or “uL” (Unlatch, or momentary press-on-releaseoff) mode. TRY THIS: 1. 2. Touch and Hold the FUNCTION SELECT switch for approximately 1 second. Both LEDs will light. [ MIDI ] HORN ROTOR Touch & Hold LOW ROTOR FUNCTION SELECT Select S/F Cont. Code using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
22 Ë MIDI Dump Out This Advanced Feature allows you to send MIDI Data out via a Data Dump. NOTE: The feature is helpful if you want to dump Preset Data out to a MIDI data recorder for later use. TRY THIS: 1. Prepare your MIDI Data recorder to Receive a MIDI Dump. 2. Touch and Hold the FUNCTION SELECT switch for approximately 1 second. Both LEDs will light. Touch & Hold [ MIDI ] LOW HORN ROTOR ROTOR 3. FUNCTION SELECT Select Dump Out using the Function Selector.
23 Ë P.F.SW Type This Advanced Feature allows you to set up the mode for the Preset Foot Switch. You can select “La” (Latch, or alternate press-on-press-off mode) or “uL” (Unlatch, or momentary press-on-release-off) mode. TRY THIS: 1. Touch and Hold the FUNCTION SELECT switch for approximately 1 second. Both LEDs will light. Touch & Hold [ MIDI ] LOW HORN ROTOR ROTOR 2. FUNCTION SELECT Select P.F.SW Type using the Function Selector. Slow Speed [Control Ch] Fast Speed [Prog.
24 Ë Presets Because your Leslie Speaker has a number of Advanced Features allowing you to change the speaker’s sound and performance, you may find it helpful to “bundle” your favorite settings together. Therefore, your Leslie Speaker has two Presets which allow you to save two different combinations of Advanced Feature settings for easy retrieval later. TRY THIS: 1. Select the Preset Number using the PRESET Touch Button. 1 PRESET 2 PRESET SELECT 2.
25 controlling the speaker from another instrument via MIDI Your Leslie Speaker gives you the capability to control the Leslie parameters (Slow Speed, Fast Speed, Rise Time, Fall Time, Brake Time, Horn Resonance, Microphone Angle, Microphone Distance) via MIDI. The Low Rotor is controlled through software via DSP, while the Horn Rotor uses a special brushless DC motor which responds to incoming MIDI Controller data. Below is an example of how to do this. In this way: 1.
26 3. Now select the option you wish by doing the following: Use either the PAGE “ X” or the PAGE “W” Select Touch Button to select between Horn and Low Rotors. Use the VALUE “•” Select Touch Button to increase the number setting. Use the VALUE "–" Select Touch Button to decrease the number setting. You can use this same method to control whatever Advanced Features your Hammond Organ gives you access to via the Information Center Display.
