A TIP FROM LOWREY:

4. COLOR TOUCH SCREEN

When you turn the instrument on, the Tribute screen, below left, evolves during startup. When the Tribute

is fully powered and is ready to be played the Power Up Screen, below right, appears.

The Color Touch Screen is touch-sensitive and is your primary entry point for many player features.

The Power Up Screen provides some basic information:

Tempo: The numbers under the word Tempo will indicate the tempo (speed) when a Style is being used.

Chord: The letter under the word Chord indicates the Lower Keyboard chord being played. The bass pedal,

if being played, is displayed to the right of the chord display, preceded by a slash (C / Eb).

Transpose: The letter under the word Transpose indicates the key that the instrument is set to. In addition,

you will see pictures of buttons with these labels: Song Setup, Style List, Genius, USB, and Keypad. This

is the Power-Up screen.

Display Contrast

There is a DISPLAYCONTRAST dial located just to the right of the screen.

Turn the dial to adjust the screen to a setting that is best for you.

The Expression Pedal controls the overall

volume level of the organ. The volume

level of specific sections is controlled by

the individual volume level controls found

on the panel and in the Graphic Mixer sec-

tion. If the overall maximum volume level

of the organ is too loud, use the Master

buttons in the Graphic Mixer to adjust the

volume to your liking.

mounted high in the cabinet to project sound for the seated player’s benefit. The player can adjust the

volume of the monitor speakers using the Headphone + Monitor knob, located on the right end block.

only) are plugged into the headphone jack. When headphones are plugged into the headphone jack the organ

speaker system is muted.

your fingertip when making selections on the screen.

9Get Started!

ging the headphones in and placing them on your ears, hold a note or play a style, and slowly increase the

volume to a comfortable level.

adjust the volume level of the microphone.

IMPORTANT: Before plugging a microphone into the microphone INPUT jack, be sure that the volume

knob labeled VOLUME and the expression pedal are set to minimum volume. After plugging the micro-

phone in, speak directly into it and slowly increase the volume to a comfortable level.

11 Presets

There are a variety of different presets featured on the Tribute. The type of preset active at any one time: Banks,

Style Setup, Pistons, Categories will be displayed in the screen, as illustrated below.

A rectangle will appear around the preset name on the screen, indi-

cating it is active. To change the preset, press one of the General

Preset buttons or the touch desired preset name on the screen.

The active preset will be highlighted on the screen. In this example,

Preset 0 is active. Touch the screen, or press one of the 10 piston but-

tons, to select a different preset.

The Preset Information feature displays a description of the upper

keyboard sounds (in groups of 11) in the General Presets, Category

Presets, Bank Presets, and style set ups.

Press the custom 3 button, located to the left of the lower keyboard,

to display a listing of the 11 presets currently being used. (If no pre-

sets are selected the display will list the 11 GENERAL PRESETS).

Preset Information

PRESETS

The Pistons are factory set and can not be changed. Press one of the numbered buttons. The information is

displayed on the touch screen.

What Is Preset 0? There are 10 Piston buttons and 11 Presets. 0 is the power up sound. Just turning the

Tribute on gives you that setup. The same is true, as you will see, for the Banks, Categories, and Style

Setups.

Anytime you are using a Preset, you can make any change you wish. For example, you may wish to adjust

volume levels (Graphic Mixer) or select different sounds (Orchestral, Solo, or Tabs). When you find a com-

bination you like you can always save it as a Bank Preset.

Style Setups work only when a Style has been selected.

Style Setups performs two functions:

1. Provides a registration for the upper keyboard and lower right (split) melody to complement the Style

chosen. With the Style Setups button illuminated yellow (stand-by) pressing any Style button

causes the button to be illuminated red (red indicates the feature is Ready to go) and creates an

appropriate registration for the upper keyboard. You never have to press another button in order to play.

2. Turns each of the Pistons buttons into a different setup. With any Style button selected and the Style

Setups button illuminated red, the 10 Pistons provide 10 more dynamic setups for each style.

Style Setups activate the lower Keyboard Split feature and assigns sounds to the right half of the lower key-

board. The factory-set split location is at the third A key. See Feature Page 7 - Set Key Splits on pages 83

and 53.

Style Setups provide a complete registration (sounds, volumes, effects, etc.) on the upper

keyboard for each of the Tribute’s 96 Styles. The Style Setups button is directly to the

left of the ten Pistons buttons. Each time you turn on the organ or after pressing the

Reset button, the Style Setups button is illuminated yellow. Yellow indicates the feature

is standing-by.

13 Presets

Categories give you 132 upper keyboard registrations. Categories are used in combination with the 10 Piston

buttons and feature 11 registrations per category.

Pressing any of the first four buttons creates 11 presets, consistent with each category. To display all 11 pre-

set names from any category selected on the touch screen press the Custom 3 button, located to the left of

the lower keyboard.

Categories set up a sound on the lower keyboard, to the right of the split point, in addition to the upper key-

board sound. This sound complements the upper keyboard sound and is like having a third keyboard from

which to play.

Category Presets can be used with styles, as an alternative to style setups, or used alone without a style.

The 132 CATEGORY PRESET sounds in the Tribute can not be changed. You will never lose them.

In some cases, the preset names displayed on the Touch Screen will be abbreviated.

More More

Pressing the MORE button reveals eight addition-

al categories in the touch screen. Traditional will

be boxed-in indicating it is the category currently

active. To select a category other than Traditional

simply touch one of the other seven category

names on the screen, causing it to be boxed. The

selected category’s Preset 0 will be activated.

Pressing the Piston buttons, 1 - 10 gives you 10

more presets.
