ABSTRACT:
A circuit intended for use with electronic organs and, more specifically, with those electronic organs in which the keyboard switches are multiplexed, and which circuit provides a method for automatically sounding in succession either the natural notes (white keys) or the sharped notes (black keys) to create a glissando effect, beginning at either the upper, or lower, end of the solo manual and continuing down, or up, the manual at least until the note which is depressed by the player is reached. This simulates the effect of the organist running his finger from one end of the manual partially down, or up, the manual and reaching the previously mentioned depressed key.
