Tone modifying circuits of the Baldwin organ Another innovative aspect of the Baldwin Organ was the touch sensitive keyboard designed to create a realistic variable note attack similar to a pipe organ. As the key was depressed, a curved metal strip progressively shorted out a carbon resistance element to provide a gradual rather than sudden attack (and decay) to the sound. The Baldwin Organ were based on an early type of subtractive synthesis the neon discharge tubes generating a rough sawtooth wave rich in harmonics which was then modified by formant filters to the desired tone. The organ was a development of Kock’s Berlin research with the using the same neon-gas discharge tubes to create a stable, affordable polyphonic instrument.
