Subject:Re: electro vs Motion-Sound was[CWSG] module for Rhodes/Hammond sounds

Apart from a single mp3 on from the electro web-site I haven't had
the opportunity to hear the Hammond emulation, but it appears that
it's Leslie sim is the nearest ever achieved to the real deal.

So further to the original question, regarding Rhodes and Hammond,
can any-one in the know give their opinion on this keyboard, soon to
be ( if not already ) module too, on its Hammond plus Leslie
emulation. I have been toying with the idea of adding a Motion-Sound
RS-147 to my V3 to give me as authentic a sound as possible but
having heard the electro's mp3 am tempted to rid myself of my
towering module Frankenclone, of E-mus and Voces and Dynacords, Art
Dual MP, Joe Meek, and Uncle Tom Cobley and all, and get myself one
bright red module instead.

I have an excellent sound with the above but by the time I've
switched everything on, there's no time left to play.

Any views on the Electro versus the Voce plus Motion-Sound? The
Rhodes/ Wurlies and ac pianos would be a bonus.

Regards Thomas.
