Besides the obvious reasons for software composers, MIDI would enable Nord,
Hammond, or any other clonewheel player the ability to change speeds using
dedicated leslies control buttons.



Also, there seems not to be a way to heard the ramp up of the Leslie from
STOP. This is used all the time for many Booker T songs as he used a two
speed leslie most of the time. The Ventilator seems to only have two speeds
and a bypass witch. I doubt it lets you slowly ramp down to a stop or ramp
up realistically from a stop.

SOUNDS GOOD.. BUT NO MIDI?
..................................

Well I am not defending Guido or his product, but why should a near-perfect
simulation of a Leslie 122 have MIDI? The original doesn't have it.

O.K. I understand: MIDI would enable presets. But let me assure that the
sound is so good and authentic, you just need to adjust it to the gig and
once done, you just need to switch between fast and slow. It sounds
fantastic even with every knob at 12 o'clock and the overdrive (killer!!!)
at your taste. If you need to change the amount of anything, put the unit on
top of your Hammond clone for easy access.

Just my input - I really love this box and I find its sound powerful,
musical, authentic and addictive.
