THere is some great playing, no doubt. I didn't see the Pro-145 clip, but I'm assuming it's the same: two great organists playing their butts off....but no backing musicians (drums n bass in particular).
That's where the Pro145 failed for me...competing volumewise while maintaining that tone.
Hey Steve, that's what you guiys need, some well done video/mpeg clips where you can see and hear what's happening. Maybe gospel monster MikeW can come through on this.

WHOA! What a sound from the MS1771 Leslie, with the Hammond console

THEN the Pro-145 demo (not the trio - 3rd clip down I think) = OH
YEAH! Same power, same amps, different MS cabinets. The 1st Gospel
clip, showing the Diversi partway through, was some on and off very
good playing too - a little repetitious, that's why they call it a jam
(isn't it?). At least one of these guys, probably two, really knows
their stuff. The guy playing only on the upper keyboard might have
been doing pedals (can't tell) but the whole was a patchwork of "dont-
stop-listening-just-yet" great riffs and a few tricks. I'm sure many,
many players late night earphone jams are in the same mode, ha ha. I
love the way the main guy blows a lower manual gliss right after a
great upper manual gliss - exactly in the middle of the file - didn't
phase him a bit, just like it's supposed to be done. Also did a couple
of cool knuckles over downwards short smears like I haven't seen in
quite a while.
Note: I am saving the link and files below for anyone that ever wants
to push that oatmeal at me again of how "crappy" the Pro-145 sounds
versus a Leslie - and Motion Sound in general - although this may not
have been the intention of who posted the original link. Thanks either
way :) Walter j
