Large Organ Consoles

Toe Studs

Larger consoles usually differ from smaller consoles in the use of toe studs.

Smaller consoles include them more rarely. If present, sometimes only the Great to Pedal reversible and Sforzando reversible are provided.

Like thumb pistons, each toe stud performs a specific action when pressed. Some toe studs serve unique functions that are not duplicated by any thumb pistons. Others merely duplicate the function of thumb pistons, but are provided for use by the feet in case the hands are too busy.
