Page 46: Harmonic Drawbars
HARMONIC DRAWBARS™ The XK-5 has 4 sets of nine Drawbars, two for each manual. The Harmonic Drawbars are the heart of the renowned Hammond Sound and have been used since the first Hammond Organ Model A was introduced in 1935.
Page 47: Drawbars For Upper And Lower Manuals
16´ fundamental. NOTE: The Colors of the Drawbars are traditional to Hammond, and were established to provide a quick visual guide to the har- monics generated by the Drawbars.
Page 48: Drawbar Registration Patterns
Notice that Drawbar registrations are expressed in number groups of 2, 4 and 3. This “2-4-3” number formula for Drawbar Registration has been a Hammond convention since the beginning. It has been found to be the easiest way to convey a specific setting. The first two numbers correspond to the two brown Drawbars of either manual.
Page 49: Modern Drawbar Registrations
Hammond Organ. Later on, as the Hammond Organ spread throughout Jazz, Pop, Rock and (especially) Gospel music, Some timeless registrations become common.
Page 50: Match The Registration To The Drawbar Setting
The first Pedal Drawbar produces a composite tone at 16’ pitch for a deep foundation bass, while the second Pedal Drawbar produces a composite tone at 8’ pitch, or one octave higher. The registration of the Pedals appears in the center of the display - 16´ on the left and 8´ on the right. HA<O> XK-5 Owner’s Playing Guide...
Page 51: Pedal Sustain
Turns the Pedal To Lower function “ON”(LED lit) and “OFF” (LED not lit) The Pedal tones will play either from the lower range of the Manual if the XK-5 is used by itself, or the Lower Manual if the XK-5 has been expanded.
Page 52: Drawbar Edit Menu
This allows you to set the key-point at which the Drawbar pitches fold back (repeat the same On the earliest model Hammond Organs, the notes on higher octaves). The setting range is 4G to 5C.
Page 53: Pedals
This allows you to determine whether the Pedal tone remains at the same volume as a note is held, or if the SUSTAIN voice decays as a note is held, similar to a plucked string. On an organ, such as the XK-5, The setting range is 1(short) - 5(long) and C(continuous). the word “SUSTAIN” refers to the ⓲...
Page 54: What Is A "Custom Pedal Registration
Pedal Drawbars. The following pages explain how to set the various harmonics to create Custom Pedal Registrations. The XK-5 has 6 different Custom Pedal Registrations. Three (3) of these are User registrations (indicated by a “U”) while the other three (3) are Factory registrations (indicated by an “F”).

Page 58: Percussion
An important component of the Hammond Sound is “Touch-Response Percussion Control™.” The Percussion controls on the XK-5 consist of four separate tabs, located immediately to the right of the Drawbars, which control har- monic Percussion tones playable from the Upper Manual. They control all the same functions as the tilt tablets on a tone-wheel Ham- mond.
Page 59: Percussion Edit Menu (Percuss)
The volume level of the Drawbars will be reduced by 3 decibels, or a small amount, when Percussion is “ON” at Normal volume. This replicates the original Hammond Organs with Touch-Response Percussion Control. OFF: The volume of the Drawbars will stay at the same level, or “0db, ” when Percussion is “ON” at Normal volume. This replicates later Hammond Organs with Percussion.

Page 64: Vibrato & Chorus
On a tone-wheel Hammond Organ equipped with Vibrato & Chorus, the vibrato circiutry consists of a series of plural coils or low-pass filter sections called a “delay line” or “line box” and a motor-driven “scanner” which, as the name implies, scans the delay line and progres- sively retards the phase, creating the Vibrato effect.
Page 65: Vibrato & Chorus Edit Menu (Vib&Cho)
❶ TYPE Hammond tone-wheel organs with Vibrato & Chorus were manufactured from 1949 through 1975. During that time, several different types of vibrato circiuts were employed, particularly line boxes of different construction. The Vibrato TYPE feature creates the effect of different types of Vibrato delay lines.
Page 66: Leslie
Leslie Speakers have been made over the years; probably the best known being the models 122, 142, 145 and 147. The built-in digital Leslie effect on the XK-5 reproduces all three modes - Fast, Slow and Off. In addition, all three modes are available when the XK-5 is connected to an 11-pin Leslie Speaker cabinet.
Page 67: Leslie Parameters
Custom Leslie Cabinet. The XK-5 has 16 different Custom Leslie Cabinets. Eight (8) of these are User Cabinets (indicated by a “U”) while the other eight (8) are Factory Cabinets (indicated by an “F”). The Factory Cabinets are permanently written in memory, but the User Cabinets can be overwritten with your own settings.
Page 68: Leslie Edit Menu
This Edit Menu allows you to make various changes to the characteristics of the inbuilt digital Leslie. As explained on the previous page, the XK-5 has a library of Leslie Cabinets consisting of different settings for each of the Leslie Param- eters.

Page 73: Overdrive
OVERDRIVE Overdrive adds distortion to the sound by increasing the pre-amplifier input gain. On the XK-5, the Overdrive feature is controller by an “ON / OFF” button and a Rotary Knob for controlling the amount of Overdrive. The [OVERDRIVE] Touch Button must be “ON” in order to hear the Overdrive effect.
Page 74: Temporary Equalizing (Master Equalizer)
However, a true equalizer allows you control over more area of the frequency range than just “highs” and “lows.” The Equalizer func- tions of the XK-5 have this capability. The MASTER EQUALIZER is located on the extreme right of the Control Panel. It allows you to adjust the overall frequency response of the entire instrument in real time.
Page 75: Equaliz (Equalizer)
This Edit Menu allows you to adjust the settings for the Equalizer. An Equalizer is used to adjust the tonal quality. The XK-5’s built-in Equalizer consists of 3 bands and a digital implementation of the “tone control ” found on the preamp of a tone-wheel Hammond Organ. The Bass and Treble bands are handled by “shelf ”...
Page 76: Multi Effects
MULTI EFFECTS The XK-5 has a number of “Multi Effects” which you can use to enhance the Drawbar and Percussion tones. u MULTI EFFECTS There are 8 Multi Effects which can be applied to the Drawbar and Percussion tones. Tremolo - Raises and lowers the amplitude or volume at a determined rate.

PATCHES & FAVORITES HA<O> XK-5 Owner’s Playing Guide...
Page 102: Patches
PATCHES WHAT IS A “PATCH?” The Hammond XK-5 has, in addition to Drawbar settings, many ways to customize and tailor those settings. In the organ world, this mixing, blending and tailoring of sounds is called Registration. In the keyboard and synth world, a sound or group of sounds and effects is called a Patch.
Page 103: User And Factory Patches

Page 125: What Is A "Midi Channel
SYSTEM MESSAGE w SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE MESSAGE Transmits data unique to Hammond Products. This is done by means of a MIDI Dump, which transmits all unique Hammond informa- tion (Sysx) data to an external sequencer. NOTE: More information can be found by consulting the MIDI Implementation Chart in the APPENDIX at the back of this Guide.
Page 126: Midi Structure
EXTERNAL ZONE CHANNELS The External Zones are MIDI OUT only - they do not respond to incoming MIDI data. These are useful if you wish to use the XK-5 as a Master Keyboard to control other MIDI devices such as synthesizers, sound modules, etc. The External Zones will transmit MIDI Note data, Program changes, Conreoller settings, etc.
