Most organ sounds switch on the leslie-effect/vibrato by pressing the keys a bit harder. Can this function been switched off ?
Thanks & sorry for my poor English.

Yes. Organs with 'V' generally switch samples at certain velocities so you need to go into Sound Mode and change the level at which they change.
For instance "Perc. Organ 2V"
To eliminate the Switching/Change that happens at 95 velocity:
Go into Sound Mode, Menu, Basic, Velocity/Keyzone Tab.
Osc 1, Increase Velocity Zone Top to 127.
Osc 2, Increase Velocity Zone Top to 127.
Osc 3, No change required.
Osc 4, No change required.
Osc 5, Change Velocity Zone Bottom down to 1,
and change Velocity Zone Top to 2 (you dont want this oscillator to be audible).
Osc 6, Same as above.
Osc 7, No change required.
Use top right drop-down menu to write this as a User Sound and call it say
"PercOrgan Low" and select where to put it in User Sounds. (It is best not to overwrite factory sound locations).

To make an Organ with the high velocity vibrato Effect (over 95 sound) do this.
Start again with the "Perc.Organ 2V"
This time change as follows:
Osc 1, Decrease Velocity Zone Top to 2.
Osc 2, Decrease Velocity Zone Top to 2.
Osc 3, No change required.
Osc 4, No change required.
Osc 5, Change Velocity Zone Bottom to 1 AND change the Scaled Velocity Bottom to 1.
Osc 6, Same as above.
Osc 7, No change required.
Use top right dropdown menu and write to user sounds and call it say "PercOrgan Hi".

Now you have divided the organ and can put one in STS 1 and the Other in STS 2 and can change effect when needed.

You can do the same for all the "V" organs but you need to know which Oscillators to change. The best way to know which ones to change is by using the "Solo Osc" function in the dropdown menu. One thing to be aware of is that sometimes two different sounds are hidden in the one oscillator. These can be identified with the "Osc Basic" Tab where half way down you see "Vel SW L-H" if this value is different to 1 then it will switch sounds at the velocity shown.

Dont be afraid to experiment - but always save to a User location rather than overwrite a factory one (or leave Factory Protect On).

There are other ways of achieving the same result - like copying across only the oscillators you need to make a new sound - but I've tried to give you one of the easiest methods.
