GregN Posted January 28, 2006 Author Report Posted January 28, 2006 Actually, the tune was "Pumpkin Pie" that I do that on. At the end of that tune, if you listen to the record, I end my "trading" with Joe on a high C on the top manual (the second C from the right). I then put the car keys inbetween the C and B beneath it and then start playing the "outro" chords on the lower manual and the bass line on the pedals. The reason I do this is so I can change the timbre (timbre = tone) of the held note and the chords I'm playing independently of each other, since the held note is on the upper manual (manual = keyboard) and I'm playing chords on the lower manual. In other words, I can adjust the drawbars for the upper manual and change the tone of that high note without affecting the tone of the chords on the lower manual, which I also change with a different set of drawbars in order to add depth to the sound. By the end of the tune, both the upper and lower drawbars are pulled all the way out, but they each get there in different increments! Wouldn't piano be easier? Quote
