If you are speaking of an Orbit III setting, I cannot help. You can also turn off all rhythm by turning off all of the rocker tabs. “The percussion can be damped with the pedal” If you are speaking of the Swingin' Rhythm or Multi-Matic Percussion whose rocker tabs are on the left, lower manual cheek block and the green rocker tabs on the left 2 nd manual cheek block, you turn the volume to zero by sliding the fader to the bottom of its travel. The 4370/4373/4570/4573 has several characters, classic/church, jazz (especially with Orbit III), and theatre (helped out with my Leslie 212S remote speaker). It is the same as the 4373, except the 4570 is a console that has two 61-key manuals and it does not have the Orbit III synthesizer (the 3 rd or topmost keyboard with the smaller keys). Reverb to taste.Īlthough this is a fairly old thread, perhaps others may benefit by a few answers. Tibia Tremolo and Spectratone on at Theatre speed (fast).

Lower - mellow setting to match, probably flutes, string and perhaps horn. Typical 'vanilla' setting would be: Upper - Flutes at 16,8 and 4, Strings at 16 and/or 8, and as you have a 4573, you also have Tibias at 16,8 and 4. Use the synth on the solo manual for those instrumental sounds. Tremolo and tremulants on, unless you want to play classical or church music. I'd start with a rich, full-ish sound on the upper, with a mellow combination on the lower and pedals. If you want to learn how to play 'home organ', then I wouldn't use the upper manual that way. 1) does the sound combination you use sound good to you and accompany that piano type sound, and 2) you need to use sounds that run through a tremolo or tremulant that does not affect the voice you're using to create the piano effect.

As the organ can only make organ sounds, apart from the synth on the solo manual, any combination of stops will make the kind of sound you want. If possible, you'd use something like a trombone or diapason and either add sustain or some type of percussive attack. You'll have to fake it as we did back in the late 60s and early 70s. If it's a 4373, there won't be a piano sound as such for the upper manual (what you called the 'middle').
