Swell division on the Great manual. (“Swell to Great” literally means, “connect the Swell

division to the Great manual”). Couplers allow you to control a larger portion of the organ from

one manual or the pedalboard and are useful in achieving larger or more varied registrations.

• Intermanual Couplers

An Intermanual Coupler is a control that allows a division of the organ to be played from a

different manual or the pedalboard. They most often function from tabs located above the

Swell manual (also called the tab rail).

The pitch designation (16, 8, 4) specifies the pitch at which the division is to be coupled. 8’

is concert pitch in organ nomenclature; when using an 8’ coupler, the division is coupled at

its normal pitch.

4’ pitch is an octave above 8’ pitch. When a 4’ coupler is used, the division is coupled an

octave higher than normal. This nomenclature is similar to the pitch designation used in

organ stops.

8’ intermanual couplers are commonly used when building large ensemble registrations,

whereas 4’ couplers are usually not employed.

4’ couplers are often used with celeste stops in more gentle registrations; they effectively

increase the number of notes that are sounding and increase the warmth and breadth of

the ensemble.

• Intramanual Couplers

Intra

manual couplers are different from intermanual couplers in that they operate within a

single organ division. These couplers allow you to play stops of the organ at a different pitch

level on the same manual where the stop is located. These couplers are often referred to as

Sub Couplers and Super Couplers. For example, by activating the Swell to Swell 16’ coupler

(Sub), the stops selected in the Swell division will sound one octave lower than the key played

on the Swell manual. An exception is the first octave where the lowest 12 notes will only sound

at unison pitch. With the Swell to Swell 4’ coupler (Super) activated, the stops selected in the

Swell division will sound one octave higher than the key played on the Swell manual. An

exception is the last octave where the highest 12 notes will not play if the selected stop is 2' or

shorter.
