Subject:Key5 Namm update

Dave Amels told me the KEy5 sound engine is the same as V5. Yes the chorus and percussion are the same. Dave is considering having the drawbar sounds level drop when percussion is engaged, same as a stock B3. Of course, many of us with real B3s have actually altered the organs so that the drawbar sound doesn't drop with percussion is engaged...but Dave is probably responding to the complaint that the percussion isn't loud enough. Yes, I've heard louder percussions, but they often sound fake and overly bright. This one sounds kinda like my stock B3. I wonder if a Speakeasy Classic might really bring out the character of the percussion???

I also asked Dave about the "dedicated motion sound TRS switch output." He first said he thought there already was an 11pin Leslie output to Motion-Sound adapter. He then said if there wasn't such an adapter, he would consider making one.
