4. To use the new range, press MELODY. This range is saved when the organ is

turned off.

BASS COUPLER

The name of this feature is derived from the historical term “Basso Continuo” meaning

throughbass. When the Bass Coupler is engaged, it will light. Any selected stops or couplers

in the Pedal division will sound from the lowest key being played on the Great manual. This

provides a pedal bass sound without actually playing the pedalboard. The Bass Coupler

(BASS) is located on a lighted reversible piston.

In the default setting, the Bass Coupler affects keys 1 through 24 of the Great manual, but

its range is programmable up to key 32 (top of the pedalboard range).



SETTING THE RANGE OF THE BASS COUPLER:

1. Press and hold the SET piston, and press the BASS piston which begins flashing.

2. Release the SET piston.

3. While BASS is flashing, press a key which corresponds to the highest note the

range is to extend. Any note from key 1 to key 32 may be selected. After the

selected key has been pressed, BASS turns off. Note: When a key is pressed to set

the range, no sound is heard even if stops are on, so no disturbance is made if

programming during a performance.

4. To use the new range, press BASS. This range is saved when the organ is turned

off.

Note: The Bass Coupler can only be set in General combination pistons.

TRANSPOSER

The Transposer is the default menu setting in the Console Display. Turning the Select

Knob while “TRANSPOSER 0” is displayed lowers the pitch of the organ up to four

semitones (half steps) and raises the pitch up to four semitones. The Transposer returns to “0”

when General Cancel is pressed. Note: In order to select menu items other than the

Transposer, it is necessary to first hold SET, and then turn the Select Knob.

MASTER TUNING

The Rodgers 795 can easily and quickly be tuned to a piano or musical instrument not at

standard concert pitch (A=440.0). The range of the Master Tuning is one-half semitone sharp

or flat.

If the instrument has been augmented with pipes, the Master Tuning feature is used to

bring the electronics in tune with the pipes. The pitch will return to A=440.0 when the organ

is turned off. Adjustments to the tuning cannot be made unless the Master Tuning is

unlocked.
