Subject:Hammond XB-5

Maybe this subject has been addressed before, and I missed it. If so,
I apologize.

I have a Hammond XB-5 w/pedals, and a Leslie 302, and I want to know
if anyone knows how to integrate this instrument with the B-4, or any
other great sounding clone, utilizing the drawbar and
vib/chorus/perc/leslie/expression controls from the keyboard and
controllers. The instrument has it's limitations, but maybe connected
to the right module/sound source, I can deal with them, specifically
the keyboard overlap, and the reversal of the percussion and vibrato
control's position (relative to the B-3).

There are few choices out there for dual manual/pedals/drawbar/MIDI
controllers, and I would like to make this work. The keyboard touch
and pedal feel are excellent, and it's reliability so far is great.
Any suggestions would be appreciated....Mitch
