Drawbar settings

What are some good drawbar settings to create some tight sounds?
1. "How you live is how you play." Is your music worth listening to?
2. Satan was a musician too!

Examples are always good, however they don't explain concept.  Who could possibly remember all of those settings?  You could pick out a few that you like and after you have heard them and apply them, but you need a through understanding of the overtone series.

The Hammond Organ Company based the drawbars on the harmonic overtone series, which occurs naturally in nature.  The Pythagorean theorum is the basis for how to tune pianos as well.

Hammond was trying to imitate the pipe organ sound electronically. The stops are called ranks on the pipe organ.  Hammond originally called the drawbars "stops".

Do some research on these topics and you can create your own favorite drawbar setttings.

Before you can read you have to know the alphabet and how the symbols sound.  Then you learn how the sounds go together to make words.  Then you learn how the words go together to make sentences. ect...

Concept knowledge gives one a clear understanding of what is underneath the examples.

That's why I first learned the commands in DOS.  That lead me to an understanding of computers and from there you can learn other languages.

Learn the basics....It's fundamental....

WELL SAID, GREAT ADVICE. THE ONLY WAY TO CREATE YOUR FAVORITE DRAWBAR SETTINGS IS TO PLAY AROUND IT THE ORGAN UNTIL YOU FIND WHAT FITS YOU AND YOUR STYLE OF PLAYING.

A DRAWBAR SETTING THAT  SOUNDS GOOD FOR SOMEONE MAY SOUND LIKE CRAP FOR SOMEONE ELSE. (ya fell me?)


LOOK AT SOME OF THE ORGANIST WHO YOU PLAY LIKE (or plays like you) AND IMATATE SOME OF THEIR DRAWBARS SETTINGS, VIBRATO/CHORUS SETTINGS, ect.
