I had one of these in the 80's, i used it more as an place to drive my toy cars on rather than play it. And when I did play it I just made a lot of noise. lol
@MrMeddled In fact my old and basic Farfisa organ has a Leslie, with a slow and fast echo/depth system. Only the first works; I'll have to open the little monster ! It's not completely dead, but I'm worry about it.
Fantastic, I have one of these somewhere, but I have to ask you which song you play after using the chord buttoms? Improvisation? In any case incredible to do something that pleasurable on two octaves!
@grindcorp Hey hey, non, non, pas du jeunet en particulier; quelques suites d'accords basiques sur une base de do min. Et quelques clins d'oeil à Bach :)
I had one a bit like this one as a kid. Then I got a keyboard, and now I play the Electone. It was really fun to own it. If my stepfather didn't buy if trom the milkman back then, I wonder what I would be using my time on this day today... ;)
i got one exactly like this for £5 yesterday, and it works a dream, but i don't know that much about it.
i'm thinking about buying some bellows and re-routing the air pipe bits inside it, so that it could be optionally controlled by, perhaps 2 bellows with the feet
I found it on a open-air fair; and this kind of instruments are not my speciality. But adding some pedals for the air could be a great idea, and not so difficult to place, I think. If you shall do it, please post some foto's or video's :)
lol , j'ai le même , je l'ai trouvé dans une déchetterie ...

@Benoitjo Il n'y a pas de quoi ! Entretemps, j'ai trouvé un Harmophon de la fin des années '50 dans une autre brocante ; la vidéo suivra d'ici peu :)

@MrMeddled Mhmm, never did that till now. Electronics are not my best, and my fast Leslie just died on my Farfisa, grr !

@Pestgris Somewhere ? You have to wash the dust and play it ! In fact, that's an improvisation about C minor, and a few notes from Bach, he he :)

Magnifique ce son :). J'aime beaucoup ce genre d'instrument qui font penser à l'ambiance des rues parisiennes traditionnelles la nuit.
Mais dis moi, c'est pas la musique d'Amélie Poulain que tu joue ? ou un autre film de JP. Jeunet ?
