EQ / Volume
To add more rhythmic elements to your performance you can
switch on the Percussion. The Percussion effects the notes played
staccato and fades away when playing legato, as in the original vin-
tage tone wheel organs.
Press On/Off to activate the Percussion. With the 2nd/3rd button
you can decide whether the Percussion is generated by the second
harmonic (button does not light up) or by the third harmonic
(button lights up).
Slow/Fast defines the decay of the Percussion. Press Slow/Fast to
shorten the decay from 1 second (button does not light up) to ap-
prox. 200 milliseconds (button lights up).
You can also change the level of the Percussion. Press Soft to decre-
ase the volume of Percussion. The button lights up.
Note: For the Percussion the 1‘ contact of the Upper manual is used. Thus
drawbar

Reverb
Some of the vintage tone wheel organs were equipped by spring
reverbs and also this effect is simulated by the Numa Organ 2. Use
the Reverb knob to adjust the intensity of the spring reverb and
add depth to your music.
Drive
With the Drive knob you control the intensity of a simulated tube
amplifier‘s typical distorsion. The higher you set Drive, the more
distortion you get. This typical tube sound can be turned up to an
ecstatic “yelling“ sound.
Key Click
The parameter Key Click adds the typical noise associated with the
tone wheels vintage organ‘s technology that became part of their
sound.
With the related potentiometer you can control the level of the noi-
se according to your taste.
Leakage
You can also add to the sound of the Numa Organ 2 the Leakage, a
parameter that simulates the “cross-talk“ between tone wheels and
within the cables.
Note: All Effects settings are memorized in each Preset.
To equalize the sound of the Numa Organ 2, you can cut
or boost low and high frequencies using the Bass and
Treble knobs in the Output section.
