I know I am preaching to the choir, but when someone says a clone
"doesn't cut through" in a band mix, I start to think that clone must be more authentic. With real hammonds in rock settings, the best side musicians know to get quieter during the solos. Hammonds are not meant to sound like Dx7's. Most of the time, the listening public will miss that Hammond glue when it is absent, but they don't turn their heads like when the guitar or sax starts wailin.'

One obvious giveaway to a poor imitation is when the organ cuts through bright and clear.
