Switches and functions
The console has several button controls for use during live performance. Some of these buttons control additional sounds, the engine noise for example; other buttons control or trigger functions, such as the Combination Action or switching on the crescendo pedal.
Quite special functions are the Pedal Devide and the “1929 ventil”. By using the Pedal Devide switch, only the lower part of the pedal is available. The deviding point is note C3, which is cannot be modofied by the user. The “1929 ventil” function restores the original sounding of the Melbourne Town Hall pipe organ by silencing the newly built stops. (see the scope in chapter 4.3).
