Acoustic Samples

That's odd... 2.6.11 should really not make a difference... But if it works, that's cool About the new version, we did not advertise it as it's still some kind of a test version to help some users on the Gearslutz forum, it looks like it works, but we're waiting for more testing to make it official. I'm sure you don't want to get notified everytime there is a very small fix that does not affect most systems, but only important ones.

Yep All you need is to allow the B-5 to receive all MIDI CCs, otherwise mapping is just not possible and by default Mainstage does not allow it.

I just tested it, and in the Assignment & Mappings page, when going over any of the "channel 1" element, i was able to select MIDI thru -> Axiom 49 and then all MIDI CC values were sent to the plugin and i was able to map everything, including the buttons using the MIDI panel of the B-5.

Don't use the MIDI learn with the right click on a button, just use the MIDI panel and set the MIDI ccs there and it will all work fine, just find the element you want to map, then select it in the list, hit the midi learn button and move your CC (you can also set the value manually if you know it). I'll check mainstage (i have it) but never tried the MIDI assignments in it.

It will not fix anything regarding the mapping, but you might not be mapping it correctly. Given the variety of Organ controllers, we have created a pretty complicated MIDI mapping system, so it's better to use it. I don't know how Mainstage works, but i'm sure it lets MIDI CC through, so as long as the B-5 receives the CCs, you can use the MIDI panel and skip the Mainstage stuff.

As Mighty Ferguson pointed out, this is a simulation of the key contacts. On a real organ, the quicker you press a key, the quicker all contacts are made (there are 9 under each key). But if you play very softly, you can actually get all frequencies to play one by one as each contact is made. We modeled that with velocity, so it's not entirely correct as velocity does not equal speed of key struck, but it's a good approximation.

I just created a quick mp3 of one note first normal then following the sequence: C1 V2 C2 V3 C3 and V1, then the same exact thing with a chord. Vibrato test

Btw, for the people asking about Falcon's compatibility, UVI just released the 1.3 today and the B-5 V2 now works in it

Each model has its own scanner vibrato, and it sounds authentic for sure because it's sampled, so it's the real thing And no, sorry, there is no demo for it, just like for every sample based instrument products on the market.

No you really can't Maybe try "ce truc c'est de la balle!" (literally "this thing is the ball")

The difference is very subtle (you need to listen to it using headphones and with the saturation and reverb to hear it), but it's there. In high quality mode, this basically increases the order of the equation responsible for the reflections inside the Leslie. This makes the Leslie sound a little wider and makes the sound a bit more immersive.

If you hear that light tremolo effect, then you are talking about the B-5 Version 1 The version 2 is completely different, especially the Leslie.

I really don't think it will be possible, we worked together and they decided to use their own IRs, so it really was a choice. That being said, i only mentioned the IRs, but that's not all that was changed from their version, we tweaked it for hours to make it sound like our 122, and i'm afraid how we tweaked it has to stay a secret Oh and yeah, i agree, i like the 122A the most, it's actually our 122 model and the one that was used in the comparison video.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it! About the Leslie, no, sorry, you can't use it out of the B-5 instrument. That being said, the B-5 Leslie is based on UVI's Rotary: https://www.uvi.net/rotary.html There are just a few differences, the biggest one is the impulse responses are ours on the B-5 and they used different ones in the plugin.

@Doug It's fixed, was a dumb mistake This fix also contains a minor mapping issue with the Mojo Leslie break.
