It is, indeed, equivalent to the power of temporarily the voicing of certain stops, so that they may be for the moment betterfitted to accomplish certain specific duties. We have spoken of the gain derived from being able to use the softer stops with the Swellblinds set partially open. It is self-evident that another class of results may be produced byapproximately closing the Swell with the louder stops drawn, as the Open Diapason, Principal,Cornopean (or Trumpet), etc. The following example, taken from Hesses Theme and Variations, Op. 4Y, is given as apractical illustration of the advantages of the Balanced Swell.

A certain special expertness with the left foot is therefore demanded, in order that thebass may be as smoothly executed as possible.
