Brian,
I notice that the demonstrator changes his drawbars 'on the fly'. Too difficult for me, that. On my AR I prefer to set the drawbars as I want them and then SAVE the setting to a Registration Memory. Then do another combination etc. Then when I play, all I do is press the appropriate Registration Memory to change the sound. I have 12 Registration Memories altogether to put sounds into (the AR 100 has 16). Is this what you can do with the Genos?

Hi Hugh,
I tend to agree with you. I set what I want and save it as a registration and if I require a different sound I save it again to a registration the only thing I do on the fly is Rotary leslie effect which I can control by my foot switch

Hi Brian and Hugh I have never owned an organ but the jazz organ and rythem sounded good to me however i dont see the point of using drawbars while playing if the changes can be saved in the registrations Best Regards mikeG.

Hi Mike,
I think its done purposely for the video to show that it can be done , but for us mere mortals I think as you said makes much more sense to use a registration.
All the best, Brian007

Brian. I bet you do 'drum fills' on the fly too. Hugh

Hi Hugh,
Drum fills are easy with a suitable multi pad, one quick push of a button and its done
