The classic sound of the electromechanical organ is characterized not only by tonewheels, drawbars and
percussion, but also by its noises, that were initially considered unintended flaws but with time have become
distinctive features of the instrument. In electromechanical organs, audio cables were extremely close one to
another, and such proximity created an interference noise, called Crosstalk. As a consequence, when a note is
played, several other notes can be heard, but at a much lower volume.
