You can assign the "Load Next" function to the [Manual] button via free download.
At a price that's friendly for all budgets, and a size that will comfortably fit into any room, the AT-75 welcomes everyone to experience the joy of traditional organ playing. This small yet impressive instrument is equipped with the same harmonic bars and lower waterfall keyboard as the upper-line models. It's fun, inviting, and great sounding.
Superb built-in sound sets, sourced from world-famous pipe, theater, and jazz organs.
AT-75 has harmonic bars, which provide instant access to a full palette of distinctive organ sounds. From 16-foot to 1-foot, different pipe lengths producing different pitches can be used in combination. Each foot length can be adjusted while playing as well.
The AT-75 has a lower 49 waterfall-style keyboard, which is ideal for glissando and other expressive organ-playing techniques. Furthermore, the lower keyboard can be split into separate zones. Different instrument sounds can be assigned to up to two lower keyboard zones. This split function makes the lower keyboard equivalent to multiple keyboards!
Strings, brass, and guitar — a wealth of superb musical-instrument samples are built in. True-to-life jazz -scat vocals and choir samples are also included.
The design of every instrument in the AT-75 is faithful to the way traditional organs are played. The concept is to give you the same freedom, comfort, and familiarity while layering sounds and effects as you play in real time.
Built-in Active Expression capabilities allow you to use the expression pedal to accent what you play. You can play more instruments with more feeling and authenticity.
Swing, country, bossa nova.... With AT-75 you can play along with organic rhythms from around the world, recorded by professional drummers. The Arranger feature (automatic accompaniment) allows you to trigger rhythmic patterns from the lower keyboard, and giving you a taste of what it's like to play along with pro musicians.
