Main Operation

The MP7’s tonewheel mode is a special function that transforms the instrument into a vintage electromechanical

organ, complete with drawbar, percussion, and slow/fast rotary speaker controls. Tonewheel mode is only available

for the MAIN zone, and activated when selecting the DRAWBAR sound category and 1, 2, or 3 sub-categories.

Upon activating tonewheel mode and selecting the tonewheel edit screen, the MP7’s zone faders will act as virtual

organ drawbars, with the MAIN, SUB1, SUB2, and SUB3 zone buttons also used to change percussion functions.

Press the DRAWBAR sound category button, then press either

the 1, 2, or 3 sub-category buttons.
