Hammond XK1 Jazz Style

[numanuma20]

If I learn piano,will playing am organ like this be easy?

[Tonewheeldude]

@numanuma20 Well,anything with a Keyboard. will do to practise on..

[MyLifeChanger]

@numanuma20 oh yes playing like this is very easy. takes a couple of weeks of practice

[gingervytis]

@numanuma20 No. If it were easy, eveyrone would be a Joey D or Groove Holmes.

[joepiedepoepie1000]

@numanuma20 FORGET THE PIANO, IT IS VERRY DIFFERENT!!!

[numanuma20]

@joepiedepoepie1000 Ok thanks. How different is it. As different as speaking English and Japanese are different?

[joepiedepoepie1000]

@numanuma20 It is an all togetter dif way of using the keys. At the piano you have to 'hit' the note's, but with a organ that is an other cind of using the keys. You have to tray it, then you know what i mean. The only simulairity with the piano is that it have note's with the same notebar. but the 'feel' is so diferent.

[Tonewheeldude]

@Organette It was a Hammond XPK200 a 20 note pedalboard.

We also have XPK10013 Note,and B3 Type PK25PXK.Regards Patrik

[ZackPomerleau]

Excuse me can you PLEASE make a recording of the Voxy sound? I want to know if it is like a Doors organ.

[chupathingy99]

The doors used a Vox Continental. Same that Iron Butterfly used.

Mijn blikje bier is alweer leeg teringnouwtoch!

[Brandotuomikoski]

Does this have different sounds like Vox organs, Farfisa, or pipe organs?

[Tonewheeldude]

It has some banks with some Farfisa,or Vox sounding Organ Sounds.Its quite easy to emmualate them with the XK1s VASE III sound generator./Patrik "Tonewheeldude"

[Twenty321]

F minor pentatonic (with added tritone) F Ab Bb B C Eb listen to Lazy on Made in Japan by Deep Purple.

[felixayala05]

[Twenty321]

I love F, my fave key to play in on a keyboard

[THEFINALHAZARD]

What are the notes in the scale?

[HammondB200]

maj min dim maj7 pent, liek wut?

[HammondB200]

my CX-3 sounds better :) analog rules

[Tonewheeldude]

Well,have you Tried the Hammond XK1?

CX3 is Good in many ways,but it Lacks a decent Scanner Vibrato,and the built in Leslie is a joke.You need a real Leslie to it.

This was recorded with just the Internal Digital one.

[HammondB200]

Yes i did i tried many clones. And i have a leslie. And I hate a leslie sim. Nothing like an unplugged leslie

[Tonewheeldude]

Of Course Not-as a Real Leslie is a Physical Experience!All Simmulators are a bit of copmromizes,some better-some worse!

You can newer replace a real Leslie 100%

[chupathingy99]

Amen!

[AKOutback]

How are you getting the chords you're playing with the left hand on the lower part of the board without sounding so muddy. Thanks

[ChubbyCheckerChannel]

If you're using the 1st and 3rd drawbars for comping (on the lower manual), play your chords UP an octave.

Or... you can pull the 3rd and 5th drawbars instead. That way you don't have to play up an octave.

[mdmeyer2]

Tonewhelldude,

What kind of stand are you using for your XK-1?

[Tonewheeldude]

A Regular Quicklok open stand(no X stand)

Costs about 200Euro

[ChubbyCheckerChannel]

Go for the the four leg type. Much more comfortable.

[Madflyhalf]

Is the XK-1 internal leslie simulator?

[Tonewheeldude]

Yes!SiSi!Correcto!

[jejeson]

Thanks for the post sharing. I was very inspired!!

[Tonewheeldude]

Sherry,and I dont know who wrote it.Swedish Organ Grinder Kjell Öhman use to play it.

[MusicMultiMan91]

"Sherry" was written by Hank Crawford. Although, this is now played on organ, he was a saxophonist.

[MusicMultiMan91]

Very good! What was the name of this piece? And who wrote it?

[Tonewheeldude]

Thanks!!

[jwbbaker]

Thank you! I saw an excerpt of this performance on a previous posting, I'm so glad you chose to share the whole piece! Brilliant.

[SkinnerBlues]

Alright! Very good!
