*Material damage here means a damage to the room, furniture or animals or pets.
WARNING
Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its AC
adaptor.
Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts in
it. Refer all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or an authorized Hammond distributor,
as listed on the “Service” page.
Never use or store the unit in places that are:
Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sun-
light in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct,
on top of heat generating equipment)
Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet oors)
Humid
Exposed to rain
Dusty
Subject to high levels of vibration.
Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the
unit. And, make sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage speci ed on the AC adaptor’s case. Other AC adaptors may use a di erent polarity, or be designed for a di erent voltage, their use
could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, or
place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the
cord, producing severed elements and short circuits.
Damaged cords are re and shock hazards!
is unit, either alone or in combination with an am-
pli er and headphones or speakers, may be capable of
producing sound levels that could cause permanent
hearing loss. Do not operate for a extended periods of
time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the
unit, and consult a physician.
Do not allow any objects (e.g., ammable material,
coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, so drinks,
etc.) to penetrate the unit.
Immediately turn the power o , remove the AC adap-
tor from the outlet, and request servicing by your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or an authorized
Hammond distributor, as listed on the “Service” page

In households with small children, an adult should
provide supervision until the child is capable of following all the rules essential for the safe operation of
the unit.
Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)
Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an
outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices.
Be especially careful when using extension cords - the
total power used by all devices you have connected
to the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the
power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord.
Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to
heat up and eventually melt through.
Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult
with your retailer, the nearest Hammond Dealer, or
an authorized Hammond distributor, as listed on the

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Power Supply
Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric motor or variable lighting system).
e AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours
of consecutive use. is is normal, and is not a cause for
concern.
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. is will help prevent malfunctions and/
or damage to speakers or other devices.
Placement
Using the unit near power amplifi ers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or
move it farther away from the source of interference.
is device may interfere with radio and television recep-
tion. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,
such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit.
Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call,
or while conversing. Should you experience such problems,
you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch them off .
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near de-
vices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or
otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not
allow lighting devices that normally are used while their
light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light),
or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the
unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
When moved from one location to another where the tem-
perature and/or humidity is very diff erent, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this
condition. erefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully aff ect the fi nish.
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior fi nish.
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irre-
trievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper
operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of
losing important data, we recommend that you periodically
save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the
unit’s memory in USB Flash drive.
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer) once it has been lost. Hammond assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s but-
tons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and
connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself - never pull on the cable. is will avoid
causing short circuits, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's
volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those
around you (especially when it is late at night).
When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
Maintenance
To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly
dampened.
To remove stubborn dirt off plastic parts, use a cloth im-
pregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards,
be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of
strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the
wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the
fi nish.
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any

(optional) to connect a 11-pin spec. Leslie speaker e.g. #122XB.
1. Make the setting of Tone-Wheel organ.
2. Switch “ON” the [BYPASS] button, set the [STATIONARY VOLUME] of the
#2101/mk2 at desired volume.
3. Repeat “ON/OFF” the [BYPASS] button with playing the keyboard, set the [ROTARY VOLUME] of the #2101/mk2 at same volume which you can hear.
MIDI CONTROL OF THE LESLIE SPEAKER
To control the parameters of the Leslie Speaker #2101, #2101mk2 (fi ne adjustment of
the rotor speed or the rise time, etc.):
1. Connect the MIDI OUT of this unit with the MIDI IN of the Leslie speaker with a
MIDI cable.
2. Set the keyboard channel - UPPER and the Leslie MIDI channel to the same channel. (P. 109)
When this unit detects that the Leslie speaker is connected, the Leslie parameters sent
through MIDI from this unit are switched from the XK-1C original to those for the
Leslie speaker.
LESLIE SPEAKERS TO BE CONNECTED
This keyboard is designed to connect with
3 channel Leslie speakers such as the model
#2101. However, it is also possible to connect
1 channel type Leslie speakers such as #3300
sending the stationary channels to the LINE
OUT jacks independently. (P. 80)
LESLIE CHANNEL
3 channel type Leslie speakers are equipped
with a stereo speaker system, independent of
the rotor, to provide direct organ sounds.
A traditional 1-channel Leslie, such as a #122
or #147 has no stationary speaker system, requiring a separate ampli er/speaker for the
direct organ sounds.

middle “B”.
NOTE: The Manual Bass can be set to play in Lowest, Polyphonic, and
Chord modes (P. 106 #1). You can change the playing range of the
Manual Bass (the upper limit) (P. 106 #2).
NOTE: When the XK-1C is expanded to 2 manual, the Manual Bass func-
tion appears on the LOWER keyboard. (P. 108)
e Manual Bass plays the PEDAL part and its sound is controlled
by the [PEDAL] Drawbars. is is originated from the style of
playing bass on the pedal keyboard of a 3 keyboard type organ.
You can use both the manual bass and the split at the same time.
Making it possible to play the bass + chord + melody together.
NOTE: Jazz organists add a distinctive rhythm by “thumping” one or
more pedals in time to their playing. You can simulate this technique without having a pedalboard by assigning a pedal note to
a foot switch via a CONTROL parameter. See (P. 72).

To fully utilizing this unit, read the following detailed explanations about the various functions for creating music.
ORGAN SECTION
TONE-WHEELS
e sound source or “engine” of the classic Hammond Organ are the electro-magnetic
Tone-Wheel Generators. On this keyboard, the Tone Wheel engine is replicated digitally.
While the power is on, each of the 96 virtual Tone-Wheels keeps oscillating as they did
in the vintage Hammond Organs.
KEYS
e tone signals created with the 96 virtual Tone-Wheels are “switched” at the keys.
To each key the signals corresponding to the pitch and harmonics (for example, 9 sets on
the manual keyboard) are distributed, and when you touch or release a key, the switch
connects or cuts the tone signals, in the same manner as a faucet controls water fl ow.
DRAWBARS
Each Drawbar represents a fundamental harmonic. Each bar adjusts the volume of each
harmonic. ere are 9 drawbars corresponding to 9 diff erent harmonics.
TOUCH-RESPONSE PERCUSSION
e Percussion creates a distinctive attack on the UPPER part.
VIBRATO & CHORUS
e Vibrato & Chorus gives depth and richness to the organ sound by slightly varying
the pitch (Vibrato), or doubling the voice by mixing the original sound, with a duplicate,
slightly detuned one (Chorus).
35
TONE-WHEEL SETS
The Tone-Wheel Sets are divided into the
Manuals and the Pedal Part. This is to give the
Pedal Part the Decay (= the sound gradually
fading out while pressing the key) or Sustain
E ect. (= the sound gradually fading out after
the key is released).
HARMONICS
Harmonic is a pitch of a di erent ratio to a certain pitch; for example, the one octave higher
C to the middle C. The more Harmonics, the
brighter and richer sound is obtained.
OVERDRIVE
e Overdrive creates distortion as if an amplifi er was being driven beyond its limits.
MULTI-EFFECTS
e Multi-Eff ects create various eff ects such as tremolo and Wah.
EQUALIZER, LESLIE, REVERB
Other on-board Eff ects are as follows: an Equalizer for sculpting the tonal response, a
Leslie eff ect for rotary speaker eff ects, and Reverb.
( e on-board Leslie eff ect is disengaged when a external Leslie speaker is connected to
the 8-pin terminal.)
MASTER EQUALIZER
e signal is routed through the Master Equalizer. Allowing you to tailor your sound
for the provided venue, amp, sound system or recording. e settings are not saved in
patch memory.

ORGAN SECTION
ORGAN TYPE
ere are various “Organ” types: the Hammond Tone-Wheel organs used in everywhere rock, jazz, and Gospel, the transistor organ frequently heard in pop music of
‘60’s. Classical pipe organ used in classical music or church services. All organs have
characteristic sounds.
is keyboard will sound like the types of organ you choose.
TONE-WHEELS (BType1, BType2, Mellow)
ese are various types of Hammond Organs’ characteristic tone wheels. e Hammond Organ’s original purpose was to duplicate the pipe organ, however, they became famous for producing a unique sound of their own.
e BType1 and BType2 have the B-3/C-3’s traditional Tone-Wheel sounds. e
BType2 has more wow-fl utter and leakage noise.
e Mellow is not a Tone-Wheel, if strictly speaking. It replicates the fi rst-generation
non-mechanical Transistor Hammond Tone Generators like the GT-7 and Concord.
TRANSISTOR ( Vx, Farf)
After the transistor became generally used, the light weight organs were introduced
(such as Ace Tone TOP-6 etc.) using the transistor circuit instead of the tone wheels
or tubes. e circuit system is diff erent from maker to maker or model by model. We
have replicated 2 representative types here.
e Vx is a type to combine the triangle wave and square wave with several footages.
e Farf is one to combine the sound wave forms coming through plural fi lters with
the tablet switch.
PIPE
e Church/Classical Pipe Organ uses thousands of individual pipes driven by wind
from a blower to create its sound. e name of the stops tells you which wind instrument is duplicated.
You can create other sounds by combining diff erent organ Stops, in the same way
Drawbars are used on this keyboard.

HARMONIC DRAWBARS™
e 9 Drawbars on this keyboard are used to create the basic “Hammond” sounds.
Each Drawbar is marked with the register numbers 1 - 8 along the fl at part of the
Drawbar. When the Drawbars are fully pushed in, no sound is heard; as the Drawbars
are “pulled” the volume of that harmonic increases.
When recalling a patch, the drawbars’ “positions” will change internally, but not
physically. When a drawbar is moved, the setting will “snap” to that drawbar’s current
position.

Middle “C”
e pitch of each Drawbar is as shown above, when the middle C is depressed. e
footage marked (´) legend in front of each Drawbar is derived from the corresponding length of pipes of a pipe organ.
e numbers 1 - 8 on the “bar” portion of each Drawbar indicate the volume of the
sound to be produced as well as the guide to remember Drawbar settings.
Pull the fundamental (8´), the third harmonic (2⅔ ´) plus the fi fth harmonic (1⁄´)
Drawbars out completely and play the keyboard. Notice how the sound resembles
a clarinet.
If you push the 8´ Drawbar half-way, you’ll notice the sound becomes more highpitched and a bit “harder”. Now pull the 8´ Drawbar back out fully and push the
2⅔ ´ and 1⁄´ in halfway. Notice how the sound becomes mellower.
Experiment with the Drawbars to obtain your own personal favorite sounds.
In the case of the Tone-Wheel Organ, refer the correspondence
between each bar and the footage to the “TW” row in front of
the Drawbars.

e two brown Drawbars on the far left give depth and richness
to the sound. e left 16´ is one octave lower than the 8´, and
5⅓ ´ is the third harmonic of the 16´ fundamental. Normally,
the tones are built on the 8’ fundamental, but, if you want to
add depth to the tone or to expand the playing range by one
octave lower, build your tones on the 16´ fundamental.
e Pedalboard plays the bass line and uses the 16´ and 8´
Drawbars. e fi rst Pedal Drawbar produces a tone at 16´ pitch
for a deep foundation bass, while the second Pedal Drawbar
produces a tone at 8´ pitch, or one octave higher.

MODERN DRAWBAR REGISTRATIONS
e Drawbar registrations introduced on the previous page are typically for classical music.
ey were created at the dawn of the Hammond Organ, when it was intended to sound
like a pipe or church organ. Later on, as the Hammond Organ spread throughout Jazz,
Pop, Rock and (especially) Gospel music, Some timeless registrations become common.

APPLICATION OF PERCUSSION
When Percussion is used, the sound of the 1´
Drawbar is cancelled. As it was on the Vintage
B-3. A trick is to keep the 1’ drawbar fully out,
and then turn the percussion on and o as you
play for a instant change in sound. Try it!

e original British Vx type organ was
equipped with Drawbars, but the function
was diff erent from that of the Hammond
Organ. e vintage arrangement has been
re-created here.
Each of the 4 bars on the left functions similarly to the Hammond Organ. II, III and
IV on the right are “Mixture” drawbars that
sound plural pitches.
e 2 Drawbars on the right are a mini
mixer controlling the mellow voice “ ” or
bright voice “ ” as in the vintage combo
organ.
Each or both of the two right-hand Drawbars must be pulled in some combination to
hear sound in the Vx type.
FOOTAGE
The markings, “8’, 4’” etc., indicate the lengths of
pipes corresponding to their pitch. The common
term for these numbers are “footages”.
For example, 8’ means that a pipe of 8’ in length
sounds, the lowest C on a standard 5 octave organ
keyboard.
If the organ type is set to Vx, refer to the
“Vx” row on the other side of the Drawbars
for the correspondence between each bar
and the footage.

To engage, press the [ON] button. (light on).
[THIRD] button
Switch the harmonic of the percussion.
When this button is OFF, the 2nd harmonic speaks at the same pitch as the 4´ Draw-
bar (Analogous to the “Second” setting on a B-3).
e 3rd harmonic tone speaks at the same pitch as the 2 ⅔ ´ Drawbar (Analogous to
the “ ird” setting on a B-3). To select, press the [THIRD] button (light on).
[ FAST] button
When this button is OFF (LED not lit) the percussion tone will decay (decrease in
volume) slowly like a bell. When it is “ON” (LED is lit) the percussion tone will
decay rapidly like a xylophone.
[SOFT] button
is reduces the volume of the Percussion.
When the LED is OFF, it is “NORMAL”. If you press the [SOFT] button (LED is
lit on), the Percussion level is “SOFT”.
NOTE: Percussion is available on 3 Organ types; BType1, BType2 and Mellow.
NOTE: You can ne-tune the parameters of the Percussion (P. 76).
DECAY
On the piano, the sound gradually fades out even
if you keep touching the key. It is called Decay. The
violin sound, on the contrary, keeps sounding at a
certain volume. It is called Sustain.
1´ DRAWBAR CANCEL
As on the Vintage Hammond B-3, the 1´ Tone-Wheel Drawbar is inoperative when
the Percussion is engaged.
NOTE: If you wish the 1´ Drawbar to remain operative, you can change the parameter. (P. 76)

WHAT IS THE LESLIE EFFECT?
The Leslie Speaker was invented by Donald Leslie in
1941 to make the Hammond Organ sound like a Theatre Pipe Organ. Using motor-driven rotating horns and
ba es, Leslie’s invention gave the organ a rich and
moving tone, which quickly became it’s own unforgettable sound.
In its basic form, the Leslie Speaker has an built-in
ampli er and two rotors; the “Horn Rotor” for treble
and the “Bass Rotor” for bass which are each fed by a
custom-designed driver/speaker. The combination of
the two utilizes the “Doppler E ect” to give the unique
Leslie “swirling” sound.
Some models have not only rotors but also a xed
speaker. The circuit for sending the sound to the rotor
is called the “Rotary Channel”, and that for the xed
speaker is called the “Stationary Channel”.
The Digital Leslie on-board the XK-1C employs all the
proprietary concepts used in the physical speakers, but
realizes them in the digital realm. It is recommended
that you run the Main Outputs “in stereo” to get the fullest e ect.

SPRING REVERB
The Hammond Organ company actually invented
the spring reverb for its organs in the 1940’s. The
e ect was obtained with a length of spring and a
few pickups. If the spring was disturbed, it would
make a large crashing noise that was usually considered a nuisance, but sometimes was used as a
program sound e ect. The Reverb here is digital,
but the “crash” e ect is re-created here.

❼ EXPRESSION - LIMIT LOW FREQUENCY (G)
❽ EXPRESSION - LIMIT HIGH FREQUENCY (G)
Sets the amount of Low or High Frequency to remain, when the expression is set at
minimum.
e setting range is OFF, -40dB to 0dB. At OFF the sound totally disappears, but at
other value points the set volume is kept, even if the expression is at minimum.
❾ EXPRESSION - GAIN (S)
Sets the gain (range) of the connected expression pedal.
Depending on the type of the connected expression pedals, the expression value may not
change. In such case, adjust this parameter to obtain the desired response.
❿ EXPRESSION - CURVE (S)
Adjusts change of expression value corresponding to the angle of the depressed expression pedal.
e setting range is 1 to 3. Refer each curve to the bottom right illustration or try playing

⓭ GLIDE - AMP (P)
Engages a “fade” along with the Glide, where the volume drops in tandem with the pitch
to total silence.
EXPRESSION LIMIT
One of the human ear’s characteristics is that
when the volume falls, the sound of the high
or low frequencies becomes di cult to hear.
Using expression limit, you can hear the revised frequency response.

symptom is the organ’s timbre may change
with Expression pedal travel. This is a desirable
characteristic for some.

LEAKAGE NOISE
In the vintage electro-mechanical Hammonds,
sometimes the signal from adjacent tonewheels
would be picked up (or “leaked”) along with the
current tonewheel in play. This “hash” noise, another Hammond anomaly originally considered to
be a defect grew to be an integral part of the Hammond sound.
“Mellow” does not include the Leakage Noise.

The delay is alternated in the stereo eld. At RtoL the delayed sound comes from the right, and
at LtoR from the left. Your results may vary when used in a mono hookup, or through a Leslie
Speaker.
❽ DELAY - TIME
Adjusts the delay time.
e setting range is 10 to 1000 ms.
❾ DELAY - FEED-BACK
Sets the repetition amount of the eff ect sound.
e setting range is 0 to 127. e repetition becomes greater as the value is increased.
❿ DELAY - MIX
Adjusts the volume balance between the “dry” and the eff ect sound.
e setting range is 0 to 127. At 0, only the “dry” is heard. e eff ect level becomes
greater as the value is increased. At 64 the ratio between the “dry” and the eff ect sounds
becomes 1:1. At 127 only the eff ect sound is heard.

EQUALIZ ( Equalizer)
In this mode, you adjust the settings for the Equalizer.
An Equalizer is used to adjust the tonal quality. e XK-1C’s built-in Equalizer con-
sists of 3 bands and a recreation of the unique “tone” control that was part of the
vintage B-3. e Bass and Treble bands are handled by “shelf” equalizers, and the Mid
band is handled by parametric control.
To locate this mode:
See “Function mode” (P. 62) for operation details.

PATCH EQUALIZER
❶ TONE CONTROL (P)
is is a simulated original B-3 TONE CONTROL. Its response is unique, but its
basic response is to gently cut the overall treble above 200Hz.
e setting range is -9 to +9, and it becomes neutral when set at “0”. “-1” corresponds to the maximum of the original B-3 tone control, “-5”, the middle, “-9”, the
minimum. e tone control found on the original B-3, was only available at “minus”
settings, but here you are able to “plus” the settings as well.

❻,⓬ FREQUENCY - MIDDLE (P), (G)
❼,⓭ FREQUENCY - TREBLE (P), (G)
Adjusts the center frequency (MIDDLE) / turnover frequency (BASS, TREBLE) to
be attenuated.
e setting range is 20Hz - 200Hz for BASS, 250Hz - 3.1kHz for MIDDLE, 4.0kHz
- 8.0kHz for TREBLE.
The sound may distort if gains are raised too high. Adjust accordingly.
NOTE: The parameter with (P) indicated is a patch parameter, and is recorded to each patch.
(G) indicates “global parameter”, which is recorded upon being set, and is common
with each patch.

THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THE MID-
DLE FREQUENCY
The frequency response of the horn rotor in the
Leslie speaker is not at. It has a peak from 1kHz to
3kHz. This peak is e ective in “cutting through” any
ensemble playing.
If you use this organ through line out without a Leslie speaker, you can duplicate e ect by setting the
FREQUENCY- MIDDLE to approximately 2kHz, and
the GAIN - MIDDLE to “+”.
TURNOVER FREQUENCY
The MIDDLE of this equalizer controls a point of frequency. This is called center frequency. The BASS
(or TREBLE) controls lower (or higher) than speci ed frequency. This is called turnover frequency.
PATCH PARAMETERS
The equalizer is designed to be a patch parameter
to be actively utilized as a part of sound making
parameter.
Use the Master Equalizer for tonal compensation
to match the performance stage.

ABOUT MIDI
WHAT IS “MIDI”?
MIDI is an acronym of ‘Musical Instrument Digital Interface’.
MIDI is the musical instrument industry standard for exchanging performance infor-
mation between electronic musical instruments and a sequencer, eff ects, lighting, and
sound reinforcement gear, etc.
e MIDI standard allows instruments made by diff erent manufacturers to eff ectively
communicate with each other.
Many types of data can be transmitted and received, including all performance information, settings of parameters, and global commands.
