Creating Organ Sounds
By pressing the [VIBRATO] button or [CHORUS] button to turn it on,
you can apply vibrato or chorus to the organ sound.

* You can’t apply vibrato and chorus simultaneously. Nor can you
apply vibrato or chorus with differing settings to the upper part,
lower part, and pedal part.
* Vibrato and chorus will not apply to the percussion sound.
1.
Press the [VIBRATO] button or the [CHORUS] button.
The button you pressed will light, and the vibrato or chorus effect
will be applied to the organ sound.
The vibrato and chorus effects can each be switched between three
types.
* You can’t switch the vibrato or chorus type when vibrato or chorus
is on.
1.
Verify that vibrato or chorus is off, and press the
[VIBRATO] button or [CHORUS] button.
The display will indicate the current vibrato type (V-1, V-2, V-3) or
chorus type (C-1, C-2, C-3).
2.
Use the [–] button or [+] button to change the vibrato or
chorus type.
The effect will intensify as the vibrato type (V-1, V-2, V-3) or
chorus type (C-1, C-2, C-3) moves to a higher number.
About percussion on a tonewheel organ
The percussion sound on a tonewheel organ does not apply to
all the keys you play. Percussion will apply only to those keys
that are simultaneously pressed from a state of no keys being
pressed.
If you play legato, percussion will apply only to the first note
you play. If you play staccato, percussion will apply to every
note. This is called the “single-trigger algorithm,” and is an
indispensable part of organ performance expression.
On a tonewheel organ, the percussion is created by analog
circuitry. For this reason, the percussion circuit may not have
enough time to recharge if there is only an extremely brief
interval between the releasing of a key to the pressing of the
next key, causing the percussion to sound at a lower volume.
The VR-700 reproduces this characteristic of the circuit’s
recharge time, and provides a Function mode setting
“Percussion Recharge Time” that lets you adjust it (p. 52).
