It's the way all the key contacts don't touch the bus bars at the same
time, so as you press down the key, the high drawbars and percussion
sound first, and then as you press down a tiny bit more the other
drawbars sound. I think my hammond's keyboard is probably more knackered
than most so I notice it/ use it more.
