COMMON ELEMENTS OF COMBINATIONS 2, 3 and 4
Organs
: combo organs respond on MIDI channel 1; are 49 keys, from the second C to the last C, on the
first octave you have a bass registration; Combo organs don't use the Rotary simulation; keyclick is not
adjustable.
E.Pianos
: respond on MIDI channel 2, you have a variety of 6 additional effects that can be activated by
the Lower Preset buttons:
Button n.1 Amp simulation
Button n.2 Mono tremolo
Button n.3 Stereo tremolo
Button n.4 Stereo 6-stage phaser
Button n.5 Stereo 2-voice chorus
Button n.6 Distorted amp simulation
Button labeled “M” E.Piano is transposed by one octave below.
Synth Bass
: this responds on channel 3, is monophonic and offers two parameters accessible by the Pedal
Drawbars (in the middle of the console):
drawbar n.1 Filter envelope amount
drawbar n.2 decay/sustain time
You can route the synth pedal to the first 2 octaves of the lower keyboard by turning the Pedal-to-lower
function on. Unlike combination n. 1, this creates a split between the Synth Bass sound and the E.Piano
sound. The split point is fixed at MIDI note n. 60 (the third C key of the keyboard).
Other
: Overdrive and the Spring Reverb only affect the Combo Organ sounds.
Settings
: all settings made to combinations 2 to 4 are temporary and get lost every time you switch the
instrument off.
You can connect an external keyboard to the MIDI INPUT of your Mojo, have it send notes on channel 6
and play the electric piano sounds along with the tonewheel organ. Use program changes from 0 to 15 to
switch between 8 effects for the “Tines” piano and other 8 variants of the “Reed” piano.
PEDAL TO LOWER FUNCTION
The Pedal to lower function has three statuses: OFF, OVERLAY and SPLIT.
OFF: pedal tones are not connected to the lower manual.
OVERLAY: pedal tones play on the first two octave over the lower manual sound. This will work with all four
combinations, so you can have the synth bass overlaid to the electric piano sound.
SPLIT: the lower keyboard is split in two zones, the pedal tones play up to the third C, the lower sound plays
the rest. This works in all four combinations.
NOTES ABOUT 11 PIN CONNECTOR
Mojo XT has a dedicated connector for rotary speaker, this kind of connector is called “11 pin”. This special
way to connect an external rotary amplifier to an organ is used both to send audio signal and different
speed signals with only one cable. Mojo XT is also equipped with an internal preamp system to match the
audio signal coming from the instrument with the external rotary cabinet. If you would like to regulate the
output audio level of 11 pin out, locate the little hole on the left of the connector, insert a small screwdriver
and turn it.
Usually when a rotary cabinet is connected to an organ with 11 pin cable, additional features are available,
the most important is the possibility to turn the cabinet power on and off from the organ. On Mojo XT this
feature is connected to the
“ROT.SIM”
function. If this feature is supported by your rotary speaker and if
the 11 pin cable is wired properly, the cabinet will power on only if the internal rotary speaker simulation of
the organ is disabled: if you activate the internal simulation, the external cabinet should power off. External
rotary cabinet will stay off even during boot process: Mojo XT will send signal to power it on or off
depending on last state of
“ROT.SIM”
function.
