Hi Rob           Thank you for your  pleasant reply which is more than i have gotten from some members ie; "bullshit" etc and being shot down.I thought each member was entitled to their own opinion which is what i was giving  i have used the vent i have owned Hammond's and Leslies  i don't like the Vent my opinion which i believe like everyone else I'm entitled to. The harmonic beat which i referred to ( maybe a wrong terminology) seems to me when the imaginary rotor reaches a point where it is louder in a certain part not smooth like a real Leslie that's all i was trying to say not get into any argument I'm too long in the tooth for that my apologies if i have upset anyone it was never my intention Thank You

Hey Allan

To me, Calvin's recording sounds exactly like ( or perhaps better than ) the

BV/122 rig that I owned and played for many years.

So I guess you don't like the sound of a Hammond console thru a Leslie

speaker ?

If you want to hear real harmonic beating, try a Hammond/Suzuki XB-2 through

a Leslie 145 ....... its like fingernails on a chalk board .........

I suspect that what you're hearing is the upper drawbar overtones which are

quite predominant in this recording probably as a result of the digital mike

placement, but a real leslie would sound almost exactly the same, with the

same drawbar combination and mike placement.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, which has been previously

expressed here. I doubt that many organists would agree with you, and that's

my opinion.

Cheers/Rob
