[rodgersorgan] Re: Second voices

Wayduhminut, wayduhminut!!  Ed said it's possible to have a voice palette stop 
and its alternate at the same time by setting one on a piston or dialing it up 
manually, then bring on the other via crescendo pedal settings...Noel Jones 
said "Don't try this at home!" and advised against it. Butbut but...this is 
bound to happen (if indeed it does) any time you have any palette stops on 
EITHER a piston OR the crescendo and you use them together, right?  If I'm 
playing the Gt Cromorne and then use the crescendo, which is set to the 
alternate Trompete, am I going to get both, dangerous or not?  I don't think 
so...seems to me that in any case involving a palette stop, the most recent 
change will supercede the previous one.  The Cromorne will change to the 
Trompete if the latter is set on the crescendo, and it is activated after the 
piston.  If, while the crescendo is on, I hit another piston using Cromorne, 
then 'bye 'bye Trompete, the Cromorne's back...not both...true?  Ed says I will 
get both...my ears say no, at least not on my 835, so Noel Jones can stop 
worrying...right?
