H
Sets a distinctive electric organ sound
from the 1960s, characterized by sine-
like waveforms that are simple yet warm.
This sound was used in many genres of
music, such as rock, pop, and jazz.
V
Sets the sound of a transistor organ
from the 1960s. With harmonic content
very close to that of a square wave, it is
notable for highly present tones. This
type of organ was often used in psyche-
delic rock and ska.
F
Sets the sound of a transistor organ
from the 1960s. This organ is notable
for a thick sound with its sawtooth com-
ponent boosted in volume. It was put to
use in 60s pop music and the alterna-
tive pop of the 90s.
A
Sets the sound of a transistor organ
made in Japan during the 1970s. This
organ was notable for a bright sound
similar to that produced by the sawtooth
waveforms of a synthesizer.
Y
Sets the sound of a Yamaha transistor
organ that was released in 1972. With
harmonic content very close to that of a
square wave, it was characterized by
highly present tones in the high range
and extreme sound crushing when dis-
tortion was increased.
NOTE
No organ sound will be produced if all of the
FOOTAGE sliders are moved all the way up.
