Baldwin Funster Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 .....through a Vent. I'm not talking about the onboard chorus or leslie effects on the voce's, just mainly the drawbar tones. I have a MicroBII that i use as a backup and in a "blues jam" rig. I wonder if the V5 would be a significant tonal improvement or if the Micro's presets cover all of the bases. FunMachine.

Skinny Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Micro BII suffers from harmonic beating. V5 (to my knowledge) does not. That'd be enough to make me want to upgrade. Stuff and things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonysounds Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I once knew a mother/daughter team in Utah who were quite experienced in...oh, you said beating: Never mind. Hitting "Play" does NOT constitute live performance. -Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delaware Dave Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I wonder if the V5 would be a significant tonal improvement or if the Micro's presets cover all of the bases. The V5+ would be an improvement over the MicroBII. Not sure how to define significant but lets just say that if you can pick up a V5+ for $400-450 I wouldn't hesitate to pick one up even if I owned the MicroBII. Here is a Diversi DV (the V5+ is the engine of the Diversi DV) with a 122 leslie. This sounds nearly identical to my V5+/Vent combination.

matted stump Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 You are asking us to compare 2 technologies that are pretty outdated. Consider one of those $300 V-Machines and run VB-3 on it. You will have state of the art sound. Moe --- "I keep wanting to like it's sound, but every demo seems to demonstrate that it has the earth-shaking punch and peerless sonics of the Roland Gaia.

Delaware Dave Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 a smartass might say that the Hammond B3 itself is pretty outdated so it would not be state of the art either... but I'm not one of those people ... 57 Hammond B3; 69 Hammond L100P; 68 Leslie 122; Kurzweil PC3; M-Audio Code 61; Voce V5+; Neo Vent; EV ELX112P; GSI Gemini & Burn Delaware Dave Exit93band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
