Organ clone internal sims (gas related)
Mitch Towne replied to JoJoB3's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Guido’s C3 chorus was dead on from the start. One of the reasons I stuck with the Mojo for so long. -
It often involves canabalizing other keyboards.

I’m the king of switching springs. Just ask my keyboard tech. He’s put a kid through college thanks to my obsessive nature.

Greg Phillinganes - the clav on I Keep Forgettin'
Mitch Towne replied to timwat's topic in The Keyboard Corner
I’d pay good money to just sit and call out tunes and let Greg play the hell out of them. -
I can tell you from experience that The MAG is better quality in every way than the UHL.

Anybody following these guys? Brilliant stuff ...

1964 Hammond A 100/ missing tones/ other organ forums
Mitch Towne replied to mrk7421's topic in Repairs and Mods
The only thing that will fix the missing tones is a busbar lube job and that can and should only be done by a trained professional technician. -
My first synth was a Casio CZ-101 that I bought after I was rear-ended in traffic in my 1972 Honda Civic. My choice was to fix the bumper on a car that was already beat to hell, or take the money and buy a synth. Easy choice. I just recently bought one on Reverb!

The Hammond organ, by its very nature, is a very unforgiving instrument. You have to control the volume with a pedal and you have zero touch sensitivity. I think a lot of organ players gravitate towards chorale because it “softens” the attack somewhat and it is far more forgiving when it comes to making your lines sound in time. With chorale, however, you sacrifice a strong, direct sound. It’s all a little washy. That’s what jazz greats like Joey D, Jimmy Smith, etc. most often played with the Leslie on “stop.” Your lines cut through much better - more like a horn player. It takes a lot of practice to sound good with the Leslie on “stop.”

Mini-Vent into the MAGGIE. I’m not really a huge fan of the Vent. Been using the internal sim with my Motion Sound amp as of late.
