  • Great Rieger Organ - Melody/bass couplers?

    Good afternoon,

    I am trying out the new Synchron organ and am very impressed with it so far.  I have one question regarding coupling.  I don't seem to find a way to do this, but is there a way to simulate a feature that some electronic church organs have when playing hymn-style music where the melody and/or bass voice only is coupled to the pedalboard or another manual?  This is very handy in a live performance situation where maybe a pedalboard is not available or a full-sounding instrumentation is desired without the rehearsal time for multiple manuals/pedals.


  • That's something I've suggested too, but I don't know if it's on the "todo list".

    As an alternative, you might try a MIDI filter such as MIDI Polysher:

    I've not used it myself, but it seems that it will allow you to filter notes based on velocity. So if you had 2 instances of GRO in your DAW, you could let only higher velocity notes through to the one that was handling the Pedalwerk and then thump out the bass line!
