Subject:Receptor as a viable "clone"?
Hey folks!
I'm between "clones" at the moment; sold my CX-3 to a student of mine
who really wanted it, and no longer have my Nord Electro anymore.
I'm rethinking my whole live rig; I'm not so much interested in
attempting to get "as close to a Hammond sound" as much as I am into
creating newer sounds/layers/textures. But I'd like to take the basic
organ sound and
do all the usual stuff to it. I guess you could say I'm not bent
in "trying" to be a purist!
Having said all that...whew...
Anyone using a Muse Receptor, running something like B-4, as a
clonewheel substitute? (Tony, I know you're a big fan of the Receptor).
Just wondering what experiences you've had; has anyone run B-4 through
a Speakeasy? (I have the stereo preamp and 122AMA, and would likely
want to put B-4 through them.) I would want to take advanteage of the
separate outputs on the receptor, and really get more into layering
the B-4 sound with other sounds.
Thanks everyone!
