Subject: [CWSG] Casio WK - making it more realistic?

I'm calling on all you "real B3" experts for help now. I want to get the most realistic possible B3 "impression" from the drawbar section of my Casio WK-3000. While I know that instrument has many limitations compared with a dedicated clonewheel, I'm convinced that I can improve on the already excellent sounds with a bit of tweaking.

Naturally you'll be more able to help me if you have a WK AND a clonewheel or Hammond, but even if you don't I'd like some advice.

1. The Casio can have vibrato added, but not chorus (at least not alongside the Rotary effect). What waveform is more accurate for Hammond vibrato - sine or triangle, and what speed and depth settings should I use?

2. What Leslie settings do you use - I have an option of fast<=>slow or fast<=>stopped, the latter of which gives a more pronounced effect. Also, what ramp-up and ramp-down times do you use?

Thanks in advance,
