IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Your Hammond XK-2 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 Quick Reference Guide is designed to explain the operating features of your Hammond XK-2 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 appear in the Information Center Display (the screen in the center of the 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 outlined, the message you see in the Information Center Display screen 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-2.

Ë A.C. Power
Your Hammond XK-2 is shipped from the factory set for 120 V.A.C. power. To connect the XK-2 to A.C. power:
1.Locate the A.C. Power Cord that came with your XK-2.
2.Plug the female end of the Power Cord into the receptacle on the XK-2 marked, “AC IN.”
3.Plug the other end of the Power Cord into an A.C. power outlet.
ËAudio Connections
In order to hear the sounds produced by the XK-2, you will need to connect it to an amplifier or other external sound source. You can either:
1.Connect the XK-2 to an amplifier, or;
2.Connect the XK-2 to a Leslie Speaker cabinet.
Connecting to an Amplifier
1.Use two audio cables with 1/4" plugs on both ends of each cable.
2.Connect one end of each of the audio cables to the audio output connectors on the back of the XK-2.
NOTE: At this point it is assumed that you are using a keyboard or guitar amplifier that has 1/4" phono plug inputs. We assume this since this is the most common type of connector used on these types of amplifiers.
3.Connect the other ends of each cable to the female 1/4" audio input connectors of your amplifier.
If your amplifier has only a single (1) female 1/4" phono plug audio input, you can connect one end of one cable to the L/MONO audio output connector on the XK-2, and the other end to the female 1/4" audio input connector of your amplifier.

2 Introduction
Connecting a Leslie Speaker (11-pin)
If you wish to use a Leslie Speaker with your XK-2, the Leslie Speaker should be connected before turning the power "ON". To do this:
1.Locate the Leslie Connector Cable.
2.Plug the female end of the Connector Cable into the receptacle on the back lower left corner of the Leslie Speaker.
3.Plug the male end of the Connector Cable into the 11-pin Leslie socket found on the Accessory Panel of the XK-2.
|
To Leslie Speaker |
NOT |
E: |
Both the Leslie connections are "keyed", that is, each connection contains a notch which insures that the pins properly match up.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The 11-pin Leslie socket on your XK-2 allows you to plug directly into many standard 1- and 2- channel Leslie Speaker cabinets. Some current models: 122XB, 303, 723, 771. However, it should be noted that when plugging the XK-2 into a multi-channel Leslie cabinet such as a 303 or 723, only the Rotary channel will sound.. The Stationary channel(s) will be silent.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To connect the XK-2 to a Leslie Speaker having a different pin configuration such as an older 6-pin 122 or 147, or a 9-pin cabinet such as the 900 series, 760 or 770 cabinets, you will require an adapter kit and/or Connector Cable. Contact your Hammond Dealer for more information regarding which adapter kit and/or cable you may need.
Ë MIDI Connections
In order to play the sounds produced by your XK-2, the unit must be connected via MIDI to a keyboard or other MIDIcompatible device. See the MIDI section starting on page 54 for more information about MIDI connections and your Hammond XK-2.
Ë Connecting a Foot Switch
You can connect an optional foot switch such as the Hammond model FS-9H foot switch to your XK-2. Simply plug the foot switch plug into the jack marked "FOOT SW" on the back of the XK-2.
Ë Connecting an Expression Pedal
If you wish to use an expression pedal which has a 1/4" plug, simply insert the plug into the jack marked “EXP.PEDAL”.
REV/NORM Selector
This selector, located to the right of the “EXP. PEDAL” jack, allows you to choose the setting which matches the Expression Pedal you are using. Some expression pedals, because of their configuration, may play only at maximum volume with this switch set in the “NORM” position. If you experience this, simply slide the REV/NORM Selector to the “REV” position.

Push this switch in at the top to turn the XK-2 "ON.” To turn the unit "OFF,” push the switch in at the bottom. When the XK-2 is "ON,” the Information Center Display as well as certain LED's (Light Emitting Diodes) will light up showing that the unit is "ON.”
Ë Information Center Display
The Information Center Display is an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) located in the center of the front panel.
The Information Center Display has two modes: (1) the PLAY mode, and (2) the MENU mode. The Play mode allows you to graphically or numerically see the Drawbar settings for whichever manual is selected. The Menu mode allows you to change and edit the XK-2's software parameters such as Sustain Mode, Drawbar Voicing, MIDI parameters and other advanced functions.
NOTE: The Play and Menu modes are covered starting on page 6 of this Guide.
Ë Touch Buttons
Touch Buttons are the two groups of controls on either side of the Information Center Display and to the left of the keyboard in front of the Drawbars. The basic functions of these Buttons are:
1.Turning something "ON" or "OFF.”
2.Modification of parameters - increasing or decreasing.
3.Selecting among multiple functions.
4.Confirmation - YES, NO or OK.
The Touch Buttons on the XK-2 operate in two different ways:
1.Select Touch Buttons will allow you to select among multiple functions such as selecting a Menu Page.
2.Touch and Hold Touch Buttons will increase or decrease their function in incremental steps when they are touched once, or "scroll" through the steps if touched and held. The new value will be shown in the Information Center Display.
NOTE: More information about Parameters is covered under “Information Center Display.”
Ë Rotary Controls
There are three Rotary Controls located on the top panel to the left of the Touch Buttons. Turning a Rotary Control to the right (clockwise) will increase the intensity of the corresponding control. Turning the control to the left (counter-clockwise) will decrease the corresponding control's level.

Hammond XK-2 Quick Features Guide
10 Drawbars
DRAWBARS
Your Hammond XK-2 Drawbar Keyboard recreates the sounds of Hammond Harmonic Drawbars. Therefore, before explaining the features pertaining to Drawbars a few words of explanation about the Drawbars themselves are in order.
Drawbars, often called Tonebars, are the heart and the basis of the renowned Hammond Sound and have been used since the first Hammond Organ Model A introduced in 1935. There are approximately 253,000,000 possible sound combinations that can be produced by these Drawbars. Each Drawbar consists of sine waves of different pitches (which means tone depth).
The illustration below shows how each Drawbar relates to the manual when middle "C" is pressed.
Each Drawbar is marked with a number followed by a footage mark. For example, the first white Drawbar is marked "8'.” This is pipe organ terminology indicating that the pipe used to produce the lowest note on the keyboard on a pipe organ is actually eight feet long. The numbers from "1" to "8" on each Drawbar represent degrees of loudness - number 1 being the softest, and number 8 being the loudest.
Drawbars are divided into 3 groups of sound as well as 3 groups of color. We will first look at the 3 sound groups.
Sound Groups
You may think of these sound groups in terms of the three levels - The Sub being the deep pitches, the Foundation being the mid range of pitches and the Brilliance being the high pitches.
|
- SUB - |
|
- FOUNDATION - |
- BRILLIANCE - |

Hammond XK-2 Quick Features Guide
Drawbars 11
TRY THIS:
1.Make sure all Drawbars, are "IN" (off) and that the LED above the UPPER Touch Button in the DRAWBAR SELECT Group is “ON.”
2.Hold down a C chord, starting with E above middle "C,” ("E,” "G" & "C" notes) with your right hand on the manual.
3.Starting with the 8' Drawbar, pull out and push in each of the FOUNDATION Drawbars one group at a time until you have a sound that you like.
4.While still holding the "C" chord down, pull each of the brown SUB Drawbars out until you like the sound.
5.Now do the same with the BRILLIANCE Drawbars.
It's that easy to create your own custom Drawbar settings.
Color Groups
Ë White Drawbars
The first white Drawbar represents the "fundamental" or "8' base" tone. All of the other white Drawbars are octave intervals or harmonics of the fundamental tone. The tonal brilliance is greatly increased by adding white Drawbars, but the harmonics added are always in "consonance" or harmony.
TRY THIS:
1.Make sure all Drawbars are pushed "IN" (off) and that the LED
above the UPPER Touch Button in the DRAWBAR SELECT Group is “ON.”
2.Hold down middle "C" on the Upper Manual.
3.Pull the first white Drawbar in the UPPER DRAWBARS group, marked “8'”, all the way out.
4.Now, one by one, pull the other Upper white Drawbars out in sequence.
As you add each Drawbar, you will hear the addition of the same note an octave higher in each case.
Ë Black Drawbars
The Black Drawbars represent the dissonant (discordant) harmonics which are also necessary in building rich tone colors.
The mellowness of a horn, the pungency of strings, and the brilliance of reed voices owe much of their character to the presence of these harmonics in different degrees.
TRY THIS:
1.Make sure all Drawbars are pushed "IN" (off) and that the LED
above the UPPER Touch Button in the DRAWBAR SELECT Group is “ON.”
2.Hold down middle "C" on the manual.
3.Pull the first white Drawbar, marked “8'”, all the way out.
4.Now pull the 3 Black Drawbars all the way out.
The sound produced by the Drawbars is that of a clarinet.
Hammond XK-2 Quick Features Guide
12 Drawbars
Ë Brown Drawbars
In addition to the white and black Drawbars, there are two brown Drawbars in the group. These two Drawbars produce "sub-octave" effects. The first brown Drawbar is the sub-octave of the fundamental 8' Drawbar and is "one octave" lower in sound. The second brown Drawbar is the "sub-octave" of the third harmonic and sound a "fifth" or five tones above the fundamental. Both of these Drawbars are used to add depth and richness to many combinations. They also increase the range of the manual by one octave since a solo registration of the "8 foot," or normal pitch, can be set up using the first brown Drawbar as the fundamental and played one octave higher.
TRY THIS:
1.Make sure all Drawbars are "IN" (off) and that the LED above the UPPER Touch Button in the DRAWBAR SELECT Group is “ON.”
2.Hold down middle "C" on the manual.
3.Pull the first white Drawbar, marked “8',” all the way out.
4.While continuing to hold middle "C" down, pull the first brown Drawbar, marked “16',” all the way out. You will now hear the sound of "C" one octave lower being added.
The second brown Drawbar is the "sub-octave" of the third harmonic. Both of these Drawbars are used to add depth and richness to many combinations. They also increase the range of the manual by one octave since a solo registration of the "8 foot," or normal pitch, can be set up using the first brown Drawbar as the fundamental and played one octave higher.
TRY THIS:
1.Make sure all Drawbars are "IN" (off) and that the LED above the UPPER Touch Button in the DRAWBAR SELECT Group is “ON.”
2.Hold down middle "C" on the manual.
3.Pull the first white Drawbar, marked “8',” all the way out.
4.While continuing to hold middle "C" down, pull the first brown Drawbar, marked “16',” all the way out. You will now hear the sound of "C" one octave lower being added.
5.Now pull the second brown Drawbar out, and you will hear it add a richness to the sound of the "C" note that you are holding down.
Tone Families By Shape
Regardless of the size of a pipe organ or its number of stops, all of its voices are related to four basic families of tone. The four basic families - FLUTE, REED, STRING and DIAPASON - can be quickly set up on the Drawbars by relating a pattern or shape to each family.
These are the generalities which apply to the tonal resources of the organ, and in themselves produce pleasant and usable effects. However, real beauty of tone is secured in two ways. The first way is to use registrations which have been devised by organists. The second way, and eventually the one that best expresses your own feeling for the music, is to create your own tonal effects, experimenting with and perfecting tones which you use to play your favorite selections.
The Hammond Organ Drawbars allow you not only to set up any tonal effect you want, but also to make many fine variations of the tone. Only with the Hammond Drawbars can you play exactly the shade of tone you want for every selection and, perhaps even more important, for every size and type of room in which you play.
With the Hammond Organ Drawbars, a touch of a finger is all that is needed to make the tone quality softer or more brilliant, richer in one harmonic or another.

Hammond XK-2 Quick Features Guide
20 Percussion
Percussion
Your Hammond XK-2, in addition to recreating the sounds of Hammond Harmonic Drawbars, also faithfully replicates the Hammond Touch-Response Percussion Control. This feature is found on Hammond Organs containing a "3" as part of their model number (B-3, C-3, M-3, RT-3) as well the A-100 and D-100 series. On later tone-wheel Hammond models, the Percussion feature consisted of preset voices rather than harmonics. The Percussion feature on the XK-2 recreates the original implementation of Percussion. The following pages explain each part of this feature in detail.
Ë Percussion Touch Buttons
The Percussion Touch Button Section is located to the left of the Information Center Display. The first two Touch Buttons determine the pitch at which the Percussion tones sound.
NOTE: When either of these Touch Buttons are "ON" (LED lit), all of the Drawbars will be effective except the 8th harmonic Drawbar (last white Drawbar). When Percussion is "OFF,” the 8th Harmonic Drawbar is effective as usual.
Ë SECOND
This Touch Button causes the Percussion tone to sound up one octave with respect to the Fundamental Drawbar (first white Drawbar).
Ë THIRD
This Touch Button causes the Percussion tone to sound up an octave and a fifth with respect to the
Fundamental Drawbar.
Ë FAST
When this Touch Button is "OFF" (LED not lit), the Percussion tone will decay (die away) slowly like a chime. When FAST DECAY is "ON" (LED lit) the Percussion effect will decay rapidly like a xylophone or glockenspiel.
Ë SOFT
When this Touch Button is "OFF" (LED not lit), the Percussion effect will be very prominent. You will also notice that the Upper Manual Drawbar tones are reduced in volume to compensate for the addition of the Percussion tones. When this Touch Button is "ON" (LED lit), the Percussion effect is much less prominent. The Upper Manual Drawbar volume remains unaffected by the addition of the PERCUSS.
SOFT Touch Button.

Although the Percussion has two volume settings accessible from the Touch Buttons (NORMAL and SOFT), you can adjust the absolute level that you prefer for each of the Touch Button settings. This Advanced Feature allows you to select the “SOFT” (SOFT Touch Button “ON”) level. You can select from “1" (softest) through “16" (loudest). This will allow you to balance the amount of "normal" and "soft" Percussion sound (the choices provided by the Touch Buttons) with the sound produced by the Drawbars. The default setting is “9"

Advanced Features - Percussion 25
Ë Percussion Touch
This Advanced Feature allows you to turn "ON" or "OFF" the Percussion Touch-Response. When “ON,” this feature replicates the Touch-Response Percussion function on the original models B-3, C-3, RT-3 or A-100. When "ON,” remember that Touch-Response Percussion tones will sound only if you play the keys in a detached manner (non-legato). Any degree of detachment is sufficient. The “OFF” mode replicates the “legato” Percussion function on the H-100, X-66, Concorde and later model Hammond Organs. Each key will sound when played regardless of whether other keys are being held. The default setting is “ON.”
