Module functions:
•Four memories for stop combinations.
•Loudness level indication in the real time, limitation indicator.
•Safe limitation – the exceeding limitation results gradually in the decreasing sound uality, but no sudden
disturbing effects (cracking…) occur.
•Setting of the total loudness, setting of individual registers' loudness.
•Setting of true tone height (pitch shift) continually (± one semitone).
•Three temperament systems: e ual, ¼ coma middle tone, Young well tempered tuning.
•Reverberation time: there is possibility to extend reverberation with artificial algorithm in several levels or
completely disable reverb (dry samples).
•Setting of an arbitrary intonation deviation of virtual pipes from their nominal values. Using smaller intonation
deviations, a more realistic sound can be obtained. During the switching on of the module, the distribution of
deviations in each specimen changes randomly within the given tolerance limits.
•Function “dynamic pressure“. Particularly in the case of smaller organs, fine changes in pressure during the
play dependent on the actual air consumption are typical and result in the deviations of intonation. The module
contains the algorithm with optional parameters simulating these pressure changes.
•Automatic matching of MIDI channels via “MIDI listen“ function.
•“MIDI learn” functions for all stops and couples. It is possible to use individual stops or their combinations
using external MIDI device. Moreover there is a possibility to use any key from a playing manual (e.g. upper
octave of a keyboard) to toggle stops or their combinations.
•Restoration of manufacture setting – all optional parameters can be rewritten by the original values of
manufacturer, if necessary.
Switching on
The e uipment is powered from 12 V/1 A adapter. After the adapter has been connected, the all LEDs under push
buttons light up. Within several seconds the sound samples are recorded and the inscription “ Reading samples please
wait…“ appears at the display. The module is ready as long as the small dot in the bottom corner appears on the display.
Connection of audio output, MIDI equipment and setting MIDI channels
The module is intended for one MIDI keyboard with possibility of added MIDI pedalboard. Thus, it is possible to match
each register group with its own independent channel. As the module enables the automatic selection of MIDI channels,
it is not necessary to know the corresponding channel number.
1. Connect earphones or amplifier to JACK 6.3 stereo audio output. The module has a galvanic isolated power;
thus, when the amplifier is used, the effect of earth loop remains suppressed.
2. Connect “MIDI IN” connector of USB/MIDI cable to MIDI OUT connector of the digital organ, keyboard or
another MIDI e uipment.
3. Connect opposite end of the USB/MIDI to USB connector in the back side of the CECILIA organ module.
Instead of USB/MIDI converter there is possible to use USB cable directly – for keyboards with the USB
output.
WARNING: due to many various implementations of USB-MIDI standard direct USB connection can be in
rare cases problematic and we cannot guarantee compatibility with every USB keyboard.
4. In the menu, choose “Set MIDI“ and press “OK”. According to your choice of register group with which the
MIDI channel should be matched, choose via vertical arrays one of items “Set MAN channel?“, “Set P
channel?“. After the OK button has been pressed, the inscription “Press a … tone“ appears – it means that the
system is waiting for the MIDI message.
5. Press any tone on the manual (pedalboard) – the corresponding MIDI channel is stored into e uipment
memory. As long as the inscription “Press a … tone“ lights, it means that no MIDI message has been
received. Check the connection of MIDI cable up and verify the right setting of your keyboard for MIDI
transmission.
6. For the next register group, repeat steps 4 and 5.
Use of the module
After the MIDI channels have been set, the module is ready to play. For registration, simple push buttons are used. The
stop is activated when the particular LED is lighting. Except of this, all stops and couples (and their combinations) are
possible to control via any MIDI message.
Any stop combination can be saved into the memory. Just press and hold any memory button (1-4). In a moment the
particular LED blinks – the combination of stops is saved.
After the “OK“ button has been pressed, the items of menu (functions) are accessible. By means of horizontal cursor
