Hammond XK-2 - Rock Styling Demo

Just a little rock demo with the XK-2. Played straight through a small stereo PA. A few custom leslie sim parameter mods to make the most of the setup, other than that, here is what you get from the box.

Hi, this hammond xk2 has the Vacuum Tube Amplifier like the xk1?. thanks

[Organgrinder010]

@hammondxb2 No, just a digital simulation. It's not a bad sound under certain circumstances.

[Shwaggetyshfifty]

what were the registrations you used?

[Organgrinder010]

For these, I generally stick to a standard 888800000 With the 2-2/3' added to taste. Everything else is just a variation of that one registration. Little bit of overdrive to add some bite, and some reverb for ambiance. (Even tubes have a natural sustain to them when driven hard). Remember to express the sound with the pedal, it changes tone as well as volume. I'm not big on the harmonic percussion, but it can be useful to help bring out the organ in a mix.

can you tell me which songs you were playing?

they all sound familiar but the only one i recognized was freebird

[Organgrinder010]

Sure thing! The first few seconds was just the tail end of me just getting the sound I want. After that, the songs are: Freebird, Blue Collar Man, Whiter Shade of Pale, -little improv- , Foreplay/Longtime, The Launch, Green Onions, Benny and the Jets, Sweet Dreams.

How does it sound on full overdrive á la Jon Lord?

Any chance of an example.

[TheRealZwopper]

Sounds great!

It gives my Nord Stage EX a good run for it's money, and this baby's got drawbar, I want one! =)
