I may have missed it, but can you send your solution for half/moon and footswitching?

Thanks Ken!

The Ventilator is a very well designed piece of gear with an
international, properly approved power supply. It sounds much closer to
a real Leslie than any simulator I've ever heard and is easily integrated
into almost any rig. If you want a half-moon switch, the Hammond one
plugs right in or you can easily make your own ( I did in about 15 minutes
). Or you can choose your own custom footswitch arrangement or use the
onboard switces. Guido Kirsch is a very talented guy and is very
responsive to suggestions and new ideas and I have had the pleasure of
several exchanges with him and look forward to many more. This thing will
allow me to gig without my Leslie and not feel like I'm making a huge
compromise for the first time ever, and to me, that's a big deal. Is it
perfect? No. Is it a Leslie? No. Is it a legitimate piece of gear?
Hell, yes! Folks have tried tube preamps to make their sims sound better
but this is just better. No extra preamp required. I personally can use
a footswitch or a half-moon and this thing can give me both - at the same
time! It is very cool and I'm really looking forward to gigging with it
tomorrow night. I promise an honest review afterward. Please stay
tuned......

Cheers, Ken
