All Hammond organs in the state/country/continent (depending on how the electric grid is set up) produce perfectly aligned waveforms. Hammond organ was the first instrument in the history of humanity that was perfectly synchronous. It lacked the delicate flutter that happens in nature when the pipes start to resonate. When Hammond came with his tone-wheel concept the organ (air plowing through pipes) purists didn't like the sound. I think I understood you well, just didn't express my thoughts with enough clarity. Rant over, back to playing my new beast of a B3! Yamaha engineers couldn't come up with top-notch Leslie simulation programming to put into their flagship arranger that's already on the market with other companies in a freakin' foot pedal for under $200 US retail?! and all that's left is the software controlling everything and providing the processed sound. To me, this begs the question.in a top-of-the-line keyboard like the Genos, why did I have to do this? Now, for a bit of a rant a short one I promise. You can see Soryt's demo video that got my attention here: If you want to bring the tonewheel goodness alive in your Genos, I highly recommend this! The presence, the saturation, the grit, the spaciousness, the sound of the scanner bleed and even the keyclick is there in all its glory! I hooked it up by sending the organ sounds out the Aux jacks to the Lester K and the output from the Lester K back into the audio input jacks, something of an FX loop. I bought a brand new Electro-Harmonix Lester K rotary speaker simulation pedal for $178 US. Thanks to a video posted by Soryt, a member here, and after chatting with him a bit, everything relating to this has changed! You can read all kinds of feedback on this in other areas of the forum from orgain players and non-players alike. I was pretty disappointed once I got it, to say the least. One the reasons I bought my Genos was the concept of having that sound as part of the package, as well as the physical drawbars and an "upgraded" Leslie simulation with "grit", according to Martin Harris. First off, thanks to Soryt for inspiring this transformation for me!īeing trained on Hammond organs since I was five-years-old, the organ sound in any keyboard I own is important to me.
