4IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Your Hammond Organ A-405SP 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. is Owner’s Manual is designed to explain the operating features of
your Hammond A-405SP 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 display (the screen in the Great left end block). 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. e explanations are presented such that, if you fol-
low the steps, 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 A-405SP.

TROL - FOOT SW” mode. (P. 63)
