Hammond SKPro non-organ evaluation
sagetunes replied to Delaware Dave's topic in The Keyboard Corner
I was actually able to get a decent ac. piano. The Rhodes is garbage. The Wurli is garbage. The CP70 is decent. The clav is dogshit (couldn't easily figure out how to get expression pedal to control wha effect). The nav/combi thing is an absolute disgrace, unforgivable. The Nord E6 is much better in those areas. B3/leslie is very good on both, toss-up based on peronal taste/subjectivity. -
Akai MX73, 1986, C to C I've got one, never use it. Fee free to reach out

Neo Vent or Lester K or GSI BURN > solid state Leslie

I bet! The M3 has real character, it really loves the vent, and I really love both together=Lovefest -

All three of those pedals are really good, but are very different from each other, and react differently with different gear. My M3 dod not love the lester, but loved the vent. The exact opposite is true of the A-100. Another disclaimer: For live gigs, I use a nord electro 6, and use the internal sim. I know the nord's B3 sounds incredible with the vent, but the NE6's internal sim is really good, and I can't justify the minor hassle of another piece of gear. Thank You Nord. -
Yes, my conclusion is that the simulators mentioned above (I have all) perform better than my 760 or 900 or MS Pro-3. The main reason: grit, balls, specifically overdrive effect. ***Disclaimer: My B2-122 combination is still the best thing I've ever had.*** I have sold the 760 and 900, after reaching this conclusion. The Vent handles my M3 (that I acquired from forumite Phil Aiken). Phil modded the M3 with foldback and quarter inch output. I route the quarter inch into the Vent and then into a Polytone 15-inch combo. It's really sublime. My A-100 (bought from Boss organ in Boston with Tyler Drabeck mods) used to run thru a 900. It was kinda dull and listless. Now it runs thru a Lester K into a Tube Driver combo (L) and a Polytone Combo (R). Incredible. Until yesterday, my Korg BX3 v2 ran thru a MS Pro-3 and Univox bass amp. Meh. My GSI is defective so I bought another Lester K. At first I tried to use the Lester as a preamp (no spin) before the pro-3. Couldn't dial it in. Then I went straight from the Korg into Lester into Polytone keyboard amp. I set the drive on the Korg to 3, and drive on the lester to 5. That's GOLD Jerry!

Question: “Stereo” out of a mono PA system?
sagetunes replied to cassdad's topic in The Keyboard Corner
As far as true stereo keyboard in the house---forget about it. Always remember; If you never trust a soundman, you'll never be disappointed by a soundman. Forget about it. I love a true stereo live sound for myself. Run L/R into 2 powered monitors for yourself. Run a line off headphone jack into your DI into the house. And then forget about it. Enjoy the show. Do it up stereo righteous for yourself--give the sound guy a solid summed/mono signal, and then forget about it. Trust nobody. -
bought it for 20.00, knew it was fukkkkked, liked the case, love the action. Powers up, no sound, won't recognize MIDI sound module.....any thoughts???? Thanks, Sage

I could be the dumbest of the dumb. I packed up my stuff and headed to an outdoor gig at a campground. There was a slight delay so I unloaded my stuff and placed it near the stage. When it came to set up, I couldn't find the keyboard. Figured I forgot it---Raced home about 25 minutes, only to realize it was not there...I must have misplaced my NE3 in the black case camaflouged by guitar cases one foot from the stage. This was marrijuanna aided of course. Note to self: smoke less, much less.
