[rodgersorganusers] Re: PR300S and SOL

Here are some answers for you, Mark.
I have both the SOL and PR300s.
No, you cannot use the 3 MIDI couplers on different channels simultaneously 
to use distinct patches from the SOL on each division. On the disks 1-5, 
whatever sound you select to use, say Spanish Trompet, it will sound on all 
your 
midi pistons--on the 577--that stop will play on the SW, GT and Pedal. On my 
organ which has a midi A and B piston, it only sounds on the A piston, so you 
can 
use the B piston to select sounds from the PR300s.

Disks 6 and 7 contain sets of sounds, for instance, "gospel organ" or such. 
So the sounds on disk 6 (organ sets) and disk 7 (orchestral sets) will play 
different on each division. You will have a different sound on the SW-GT and 
PEDAL. on the 577..but you cannot use sounds from the PR300 when you use these 
2 
disks. 

I like the Dulzien stop (#7 on Reed disk). This dulzien will play the same on 
the SW -GT-or PED when you have the midi piston engaged. But you can play it 
only on the SW, and use your organ stops on the GT and PED for a nice effect.

The SOL is nice, but somewhat limited in that you can't use different sounds 
at the same time-or sounds from different disks. But, it does add a little 
more to your organ...especially if you don't have a 32' in the pedal.
