Amazing! A lot of sounds and combinations

[organaut]

@loudness96 I think this was and still is a marvelous instrument, apparently it sold in bucket loads back in the 1970s. This is owned by the band Tinder sticks now.

What a bloody amazing instrument. Thanks for putting this up!

[organaut]

@theionflux thanks very much, glad you like it.

best wishes for the new year.

Very nice organ. I like it how you can layer all the stuff together.

Most digital organs except the very biggest one cap out at 3 upper and 2 lower layers. (My Hammond XH200/SP from 2000 is capable of layering 4 instruments+drawbars to upper, 3 instruments+drawbars to lower, and bass+drawbars to pedals however. Huge organ in it's time.)

The only thing missing in this organ (imho) is the second brown Hammond drawbar (5 1/3).

@MVanthoor A friend of mine has a Hammond XH200 and it is a very nice organ. I remember also watching keith Beckingham doing a concert on one at Caister organ festival back then.

Cor! Never knew these old timers could sound so good!

[loudness96]

Yes, this is a excellent organ. Thanks for the informations.

[organaut]

@MVanthoor thanks for your comments, yes its a classic, I don't expect there are many of these around now.

because of the unreliability and to preserve the sounds, i have taken digital sound samples for my roland fantom of the crumar.

Yeah..I know what you're talking about. I have severe problems with my Electone E70. It seems to be the keydetecting IC's that go bad or gets too sensitive to noise (bad decoupling capacitors?) that they fail to trigger notes.

My oldest organs have no prblems like these - they don't have any IC like that.

Darn crap IC's
