UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, simple and clear manual.

SOUNDS

Trs good sound, there is really a Hammond in his right, and when it is plugged into a leslie. The simulated 'Leslie is what it's worth, is to say trs suprieure what is found in an organ sound of synth gnraliste (hard to do worse in m me time ...), worse than the gear type rotosphre, and having nothing to do with a real Leslie.

He can provide all styles sr gaming Hammond (jazz, reggae, rock) but I think he is made perfect in a log or rock type Deep Purple Emmerson Lake and Palmer.

The distortion is good trs (for me better than that of Hammond Suzuki). Indulgence in Revenge of the chorus / vinrato that sound a little wrong I think.

The right basic type in registers 888 may be a little hair to infrieur Clavia (Nord electro, C1, North course) but for my part I am allergic to zippers numriques Clavia home.

The D-beam is pretty fun and the effects are nice, I am surprised to use it often trs (in pieces psychs) Whereas when I was a gadget based.

OVERALL OPINION

Trs good module that I lug around for three years, I think it's best to have a pure qualitprix his Hammond. The simulated 'can be lleslie amlior by redoing the rglalges, but the top is when even to afford a good leslie, the admont carrment (you get the shot sound suprieur largely a vintage Hammond L-type).

I tried keyboard, but the sounds drawbars numriques's awful, I tried the Suzuki Hammons XK1 I found worse, but I did not test the new XK3 which seems to suprieur Vk8-m.

Anyway for me a great machine, I had many opportunities to change it but I always kept.
