Jazz great Tony Monaco does an impromptu jam on a Hammond XK-1. The XK-1 was recorded direct into Pro Tools, using the onboard digital Leslie™.

  • "It's gotta feel good when you play. This 1 feels great" I'm feeling it too, even though I' not theone playing.

    Listening to the way Tony Monaco is playing, I almost wonder why anybody would want an XK3, except for the "look." This thing can besupplamented with pedals and another manual, right?

  • @CircleCityEric --No, the XK-1 does not "expand" like the XK-3c does. You can use an aftermarket MIDI keyboard and The Hammond MIDI pedals (or any other MIDI pedalboard), but it's not quite the same. The XK-3c is quite a step up from the XK-1, without slighting the XK-1...

  • Some great playing by Tony M. What kind of system is the XK-1 playing through? Is it a keyboard amp, stereo PA, Motion Sound, real Leslie?

    Thanks

  • My dog can play Giant Steps at 320 bpm. He also eats his own poops.

  • @DajaWaja He's playing rhythm changes. There's a bridge in there among the turnarounds.

  • @ClausWeiergang by saying engrish do you imply that im asian? Can you be THAT ignorant? I won't explain to you what fifths are because obviously you don't know SHIT 'bout music!!

  • @DajaWaja I dont get your " Engrish" ! What's "5th's xDDD" ?

  • @ClausWeiergang coming from that style you can be easily blown away most by anything that aren't 5th's xDDD
