Introduction
Your Hammond XK-1 Drawbar Keyboard is designed to give you the true and authentic sound of Hammond Harmonic Drawbars, as well as provide you a large variety of features to allow great flexibility in how you want to use the keyboard. This Owner's Manual is designed to explain the operating features of your Hammond XK-1 as simply and graphically as possible.
Because we want to make this manual, as well as the keyboard itself, as easy to understand as possible, the explanations in this manual are grouped by subject matter, and not in the order in which they necessarily apper in the display (the screen in the left of the keyboard front panel). For example, all functions pertaining to Drawbars are grouped together, all Percussion features are treated as a group, and so on.
Also, each feature is treated as an explanation unto itself, and does not require you to already have prior working knowledge of some other feature. The explanations are presented such that, if you follow the steps, will be identical to that shown in the manual at that stage of the explanation.
Do not be daunted by the number of steps required to perform each operation. Each step is simple. Simply bear these things in mind:
1.Read each step carefully.
2.Don't skip any of the steps.
3.Don't perform the steps out of sequence.
With these guidelines, you are well on your way to mastering all of the many sounds and features of your Hammond XK-1.
*# 1 :- Owner’s Manual

If you see these messages, you should immediately back up your parameter changes, if you have made any. If there is no battery installed in the unit, or if the battery is compeletely dead, the Display will show:
After the above message is displayed, the XK-1 will re-initialize itself, and the factory default settings will be restored. Therefore, it is a good idea to periodically save your data to CompactFlash card.
CAUTION: In order to change batteries, be sure to ask your dealer or store.

USING THE COMBINATION PRESETS |
|
|
You can record various settings to the Preset Buttons mounted on the right-hand side of the XK-1. This is called “Combination Preset”.
The Combination Preset consists of the “BANK” and the preset “NUMBER”, and Such as “1 - 3” appears for each setting on the Display. The first letter is Bank and the
second is Number.
The Preset data is recorded in the Banks 1 to 12 at the factory. Thus you can start playing immediately.

PLAY WITH THE CONTROLLERS |
23 |
|
|
Your performance will be more expressive, if you play using the controllers. You will see on this page how to use the controllers generally used with the electronic musical instruments. (How to use the exclusive Hammond Organ controllers is shown on the next page.)
This is used to slide the pitch up or down while playing.
The frequency goes up when you move it back, and it goes down when you move it forward.
When you release your hand from the PITCH BEND wheel, it returns automatically to the center position.
NOTE: You can adjust the value of the wheel change. (P. 58)
The [MODULATION WHEEL] on the right is not usually used. It is used when you transmit the modulation information to external MIDI equipment (P.83), or to add effect to Extra Voice (P. 74).
Generally, organs can not express dynamics or the velocity of the key touch. However, if you connect the Expression Pedal to the organ, you can express the velocity, corresponding to the degree of your foot-pressure on the pedal, and add intonation to make your music more expressive. [The Expression Pedal is to be separately purchased.]
The volume is loudest when you fully press down by means of your toe, and it is quietest when you fully press down by means of your heel.
NOTE: Set the parameter at “Expression source” for the model of expression pedal that you have conneted. (P. 59)
Fig.: V-20R (optional)
This switch is used to operate and control the organ by your foot instead of pressing various switches by your hand while playing. [The Foot Switch is to be separately purchased.]
The initial factory assignment is “LESLIE FAST”.
NOTE: You can change the Foot switch assignment. (P. 60)

MAKING YOUR OWN SOUNDS |
|
|
You will be able to freely produce your own sound by using the exclusive features of your HAMMOND ORGAN, such as Drawbars and Percussion sound, as well as Vibrato and the Leslie effects. The steps to take are as follows:
Select the button [UPPER] of Drawbar Select.
These buttons allows to control the drawbar resistration each Part
Light |
by drawbars which mouted on left side of the keyboard. |
|
|
|
Note: What is “Part”? (P. 26) |
|
Touch the [UPPER] this time, it is mostly used. |
Select the Preset Button [ADJUST].
This is a special button, also called “Adjust Preset”. While this button is selected, your setting is always memorized, and the Drawbar registration on the panel (= the length of the Drawbars) always corresponds with the internal registration.
NOTE: You can initialize the contents to the default setting. (P. 72)
Pull out the Left Drawbars on the left-hand side to your desired length, while
pressing a key on the keyboard.
The tone varies corresponding to the extent or the length of the Drawbar. So it is
the Drawbars that make the fundamental tones of this keyboard.
The volume gets loudest when each Drawbar is pulled out to the full length. The
XK-1 gets silent when it is totally pushed in. The tones of the Drawbars gradually get higher in frequency from left to right.
The most popular patterns or registrations are (1) to pull out only all the three left side Draw-bars to the full, (2) to pull the far-left and only the white bars to the full, or (3) to pull out all the Drawbars.
NOTE: You can change the characteristics of the Draw-bars. (P. 54) NOTE: The present registration is shown on the “Play” mode display. (P.
47)
The “Percussion” referred to here is not a percussion instrument itself, but it is a “decay” to add a clear-cut “attack” to the organ sound. You can add this "attack" to mix with the Drawbar sound
when you want.
If you turn on the [SECOND], [THIRD] Buttons, decays of the
harmonic overtones (= one octave higher “C” and “G”) are added.
If you turn on the [FAST] Button, the decay is quick. And, if you press on the [SOFT] Button, the Percussion volume reduces.
NOTE: You can do fine volume setting etc. of the percussion. (P. 65)

“Vibrato and Chorus” slightly changes the Drawbar pitch at a certain ratio and add warmth to the sound.
[V1/C1], [V2/C2] Button
Controls the Vibrato Depth and Switches on and off the Vibrato effect. The LED turns on when it is ON.
The Vibrato effect is OFF when the two LEDs are OFF and are at maximum Vibrato Depth when the two LEDs are ON (V3).
[CHORUS] Button
It mixes Vibrato and original sound (= Chorus Effect) and adds richness to the sound.
NOTE: You can set the speed of Vibrato/Chorus. (P. 69)
The overdrive effect simulates the effect of applying an excessively high signal to the amplifier input which causes distortion of the sound.
[O.D. ON] Button
Press this button to switch on the LED, and get the Overdrive Effect.
[OVERDRIVE] Knob
This knob controls the degree of distortion. The Overdrive effect is minimum when the knob is turned fully counter clockwise “MIN”. The Overdrive effect gets maximum when it turned to “MAX” clockwise.
The bass rotor and the rotating horns produce the effect of the spatial, dynamic and lively theater stage performance.
[LESLIE ON] Button
Touch “ON” to switch on, the LED is lit.
[LESLIE FAST] Button
This button controls the two rotor speeds. When the LED is ON, it is FAST. When the LED is OFF, it is SLOW. The most effective and popular way to use this is to mainly play SLOW and lead to the climax by changing to FAST.
[LESLIE BRAKE] Button
This is to set the action when the LESLIE ON Button is OFF.
When the LED is ON, BRAKE is on. The rotation gradually slows down and stops finally). When the light is OFF, it is THROUGH. The Leslie effect is by-passed.
NOTE: You can control the rotors by these buttons when you connect the LESLIE to the external equipment.
NOTE: You can finely adjust the rotation speed etc. of the internal LESLIE Effect. (P. 66)
You can use Extra Voices (i.e. Electric Piano, Clav, etc.) instead of organ sounds.
[EXTRA VOICE / REVERB] Button
To use the Extra Voice, touch the button and switch on the LED.
NOTE: You can select the Extra Voice. (P. 74)

This keyboard has only a single manual. But you can change the setting and play it as it was a double keyboard organ, using this “SPLIT” function.
[SPLIT] Button
Switch on the LED by pressing the button, to “split” the manual.
The factory “SPLIT” setting is to divide it between B2 and C3 in the center.
NOTE: Split Point or Octave can be moved. (P. 82)
NOTE: The Split function does not work, when the MIDI IN jack is used for “LOWER/PEDAL”. (P. 84)
The right-hand side of the split point is called UPPER to make sound by the Drawbars (switch Drawbar Select [UPPER]) and Percussion. The left-hand side is called LOWER and makes sound with the Drawbars (switch Drawbar Select [LOWER]). Percussion does not sound with LOWER.
You can play the Bass using the lowest keys.
This is called “Manual Bass”.
[MANUAL BASS] Button
To use the Manual Bass function, press the button and switch on the LED.
Not to interfere with the Melody performance, this function is limited only upto B2 in the center when it leaves the factory.
NOTE: You can move the upper limit of the Manual Bass. (P. 82)
NOTE: The Manual Bass function is controlled by connected MIDI keyboard when the purpose of the MIDI IN jack is at “LOWER/PEDAL”. (P. 84)
The bass part obtained by the Manual Bass is called the PEDAL, and makes sound controlled by the Drawbars (switch Drawbar Select [PEDAL]). This is designed so that the Bass is played by the pedal keyboard as on the three-keyboard organ.
NOTE: You can choose sounding polyphonic (POLY) or lowest note (MONO). (P. 55)
You can use both the Manual Bass and the Split at the same time. So, you will be able to play Bass, Chord and Melody all by yourself.
A “PART” plays like a “musician” in a band or an orchestra does.
Like the three-keyboard organs, this keyboard has three parts, UPPER, LOWER and PEDAL, and so you can play three different parts.
This keyboard has only a single manual, but it is possible to play plural parts, using the SPLIT and/or using MIDI keyboards to expand the keyboard.
NOTE: The function for plural tones is called “Multi-timbre”.
