@darkshiningstar3 Thanks alot... but i might tell you yeah analogue is great but for at some points digital recordings are so much better

cool. I love analogue recording, sounds, instruments and the music that is made from that gear. Hope to hear or see something from you soon. Cheers!

Very interesting. I am just now becoming fascinated by the history of Home Organs. For a while (late 1960's through the late 1970's) it was very competitive. Each company coming up with more and more features. Thomas organ would later of course build (or assemble) Yamaha 415 models in the USA. I think they also assembled the model 7000, 6000 and maybe a few others?

Lowrey Organ was the very first to come out with the auto Arpeggiator in the early 1970's with the famous Golden Harp. Then Kimball Organ company came out with their version with "The Pro Entertainer" and Baldwin with the Phantom Fingers. But both Hammond and Thomas had a sensitive touch strip as you did it manually. Hammond Arpeggiator and the Thomas Arpeggio Magic.
the arpeggiator possibilities are the same to the B55 electone right?
kind of having a hard time to figure out which electone I saw a few hours ago in a second hand shop

@storyhunter - - Not sure. For the most part, the Arpeggiators across similar-year models are ...well, similar. But there can be differences. The D-85 was a top-of-the-line model and had the most features. Hard to say without viewing the manual or seeing the models side-by-side. As for finding out what a model is, check out The Electone Museum online. They have a great resource.

@1770studios - - - could be. Mostly the electronics for all organs of one year of production were the same. But Yamaha would "disable" certain functions. So, depending on the price you paid, you got more (or less) features.
