Organ stop control panel

A control panel for mounting on the console of an organ having a plurality of latching circuits associated respectively with individual organ stops and adapted to energize circuitry for affecting the tonal quality of the organ in accordance with the latching circuit state, said control panel comprising:

• a flat, elongated support panel having a multiplicity of apertures therethrough arranged in at least first and second vertically spaced horizontal rows and a plurality of horizontally spaced vertical columns,
• a plurality of touch-sensitive switches supported on said support panel, at least some of which are arranged in pairs connected for setting and re-setting, respectively, a corresponding latching circuit, the switches of each pair being disposed proximate and respectively below and above an aperture in said support panel,
• indicating lamps responsive to respective conditions of each of said latching circuits for indicating the state of each latching circuit and corresponding organ stop, an indicating lamp responsive to a given latching circuit being disposed in an aperture in said support panel disposed between the pair of touch-sensitive switches employed for operating the given latching circuit, and
• a common surface layer overlaying said touch-sensitive switches and said indicating lamps providing a substantially flat overall front surface for the panel through which said switches are operable by touch of said layer and through which said indicating lamps are observable only when energized, said surface layer having displayed thereon a plurality of outlines each positioned to circumscribe a different pair of said switches and the indicating lamp associated therewith.
