I think it was that the colours of the keys were reversed. As to why, I haven't a clue, sorry.

Just had a quick read here: http://www.theatreorg...nds/docs/history.html

They were presets, apparently.

I think if you read though this you will find reference to the black keys on each keyboard being presets.
