Love your post. An I hope that you do not get struck by lightning as the flanging occurs on many combinations of held keys. Even some individual notes.
The phrase harmonic beating started with the old Hammond xb2s. When you played them through real leslies you would get this terrible phase shifting sound due to the use of samples in the sound generation of the organ.
I believe that what we hear with the vent is something else. This was proven in my video of Austins xk3 Through a real Leslie.
As it now appear to me, 90 percent of the Clonewheel players on this list could care less. And like the other night where the organist who played before me came off the stage and apologized for breaking the fourth octave D key on the upper manual, you just avoid playing combinations for extended periods of time that highlight the flanging.
All this just shows that we are really not there yet.
