Channeling
OUTPUT MATRIX
For a better understanding of the entire channelling system for individual stops, we start with the description of
Output Matrix, instead of Chest Layout. Output Matrix is a channelling system organized by matrix; the structure
has 4 inputs and 2 outputs. Each Output Matrix input (Matrix IN 1
, Matrix IN 2, Matrix IN 3, Matrix IN 4)
can be assigned to one or both outputs (INTERNAL/EXTERNAL) with different percentage of sound.
CHEST LAYOUT
In this section it is possible to assign for each stop the type of wind-chest configuration (Chest Type) and the
Output Matrix inputs where to send it to (To MatrixIN). The Chest Type voice contains the following wind-chest
configurations (acoustic simulation of the organ pipe's position on the corresponding wind-chest ):
CENTRAL PEAK CONFIGURATION
1
Monophonic basses at the centre and progressive separation of the sound towards the treble (this configu-
ration allows to optimise the efficiency of acoustic sound boxes in the basses).
C side / C sharp side channelling (*) C sharp side / C side channelling (*)
LATERAL WINGS CONFIGURATION
2
Monophonic treble at the centre and progressive separation of the sound towards the basses.
C side / C sharp side channelling (*)
C sharp side / C side channelling (*)
