Subject:Re: Selling my CX3
What's missing from the CX3 is really two things (my opinion of course):
1. The leslie sim used to be the best sim going 10 years ago when all you had to compare it to was the early hammond and roland clones.. however it hasn't been updated and it's no where near the current standard. It lacks the warmth, animation and authentic overdrive.
2. The ability to adjust tones/tonal emphasis across the keyboard.. other clones and VST's have the ability to create different tonal emphasis across the keyboard or even adjust individual tones.. This doesn't exist on the CX3 (or in the CX3 engine in the Kronos).. all you have to adjust the tone of the CX3 is EQ. The problem is that EQ affects ALL of the sound not just the sound in a particular area of the keyboard. The result is that I can find an EQ setting that sounds fantastic on the bottom octaves but the upper octaves don't sound right, and when I get the top octaves EQ'd so they sound right the bottom octaves don't sound right.
That said, put a CX3 through a ventilator and I don't think it sounds too bad!!
