@willonthejib I personally love foot switches for leslie control - could never do the whole seamless transitions using the manual control. Some do however say the footswitch encourages over-use of the leslie, but I can't see how one could ever over-use such a fantastic beast!
@TheEnglishRedneck45 It is not a foot switch...If you look at the beginning you see him switch the leslie switch with his hand....He is playing bass pedals with his foot...
@laidyeh You can use both a half moon switch and a foot switch on this organ, one does not mean the other cannot be used. You are correct that he uses as half moon switch at some points, but at others he uses a foot switch, hence the Leslie change at 1:40, with no hand activation.
They go great with vintage hammond organs, no matter what the new B has something wrong with it like the fact that it has 96 tonewheels is not a plus at all because it gives every tonewheel 2 decibels creating a digital effect not so much the real sound of the vintage.
I guess that's a Cmin9 chord... please correct anyone if it's the wrong type. You hear in bass pedals a C, left hand a C minor chord (C, Eb, G) and in the right hand a Bb major chord (Bb, D, F). And - of course - the leslie... ;-)
Man that leslie and playing sounds superb. Have a question for you. I see that are doing a stereo mix, but what mics are you using to record the leslie?

On the newer Hammonds they come with a switch on the volume pedal that would allow him to speed up and slow down the rotors on the leslie.

2:53 How did he do that? Slow down the leslie without touching the switch? Hidden footswitch?

@theironfreak The same happens at 1:40 - the leslie slows right down. Must be a foot switch.

@TheEnglishRedneck45 yes he is using a foot switch..... if you pay attention to his leg around 1:40 you can see it move over a little bit

Nice ending. Good timing with the fast to slow
modulation on the Leslie. One of my favorite
functions of the Leslie tones. Like a good singer.
