Dear Fp7f Users,

I think I ve already made a decision for the Fp7f and against the Kawai MP6, but before I go out and compare them the last time, one question kept me awake in the last nights (well, not really, but I want to know it anyway....).

-MP-6 provides the opportunity to modulate the leslie speed of some drawbar organs in realtime by simply turning a button.
Does the Fp7f also has this possibility? Or can you just set the speed in the menue?

-I asked it several times and this will be my last question regarding organ sounds: Did anyone compare the church organ sounds from both pianos? I think they sound really amazing in the MP6 (not only full pipes, but also diaposon or flutes only). If the Fp7f could provide me a similar quality, I would go for that one...

Will be glad when finally ordered

Thanks to you all

You can press a button on the FP-7F to switch rotary speed, yes. You can download the manual from here and read all about it.

Thanks, I ve already read it. But for me it s still not clear, wether you can manually change the rotary speed while you are playing...?!

all you have to do is press and upress I believe the effects button, when switched to fast it will blink fast to indicate a Tremelo Leslie speed. I have a FP4 which I think is the same! The thing I was trying to do was route that switch to a pedal. Can't remember if I was able to . . . .the FP4 I only use for casuals and certian band gigs. I do enjoy using it for AP and organ when I do and just switch the speed with my hand which I do find uncomfortable and awkward! I tend to use alot of Leslie speed switches in a band setting.

It's slightly different from the FP-4. The FP-7F uses the "Organ" button as the Leslie switch, and it doesn't blink to show you the current speed as it does in the FP-4.

I'm not certain whether the FP-7F's rotor speed can be adjusted by pedal, but it looks unlikely. Modulation can be controlled by pedal using one of the non-damper pedal sockets, but the manual is not explicit as to whether modulation = rotor speed when using an organ patch.
