It's not totally unfair I suppose. The main thing for me is that I can do great things with it, whether it sounds completely realistic/authentic or not.

Actually what I didn't like about the other OD sims in the other clones hat I tried is that they go from very little overdrive to all-out distortion rather rapidly with little inbetween. That may be how an actual Leslie behaves but it doesn't give me the sound I want. With the other clones that I tried it either sounded clean or John Lord and I was unable with most to get a sound that would be dirty and grungy and still allowed me to play full chords. That is why I like the CX-3 overdrive sim.

Let us know what you decide.
