4.1 WHAT ARE DRAWBARS AND HOW TO USE THEM
The electromechanic organ sound generation is based on 91 metal wheels with bumps (called tonewheels)
that revolve close to a magnet with a coil. The bumps of the wheels create a variation in the magnetic field,
thus generating a voltage and hence a signal which, controlled through the drawbars and amplified, becomes
sound.
Pipe organs generate sound by blowing compressed air inside a resonating tube, or pipe. Labial reeds
produce a pure sound (without harmonics), very similar to that of a flute, which is the type of sound generated
by an electromechanical organ with only one drawbar pulled out. The frequency of the sound generated by a
Legend Solo
will start with this configuration.
