Subject:Re: Hammond XK1c NAMM video

I am not wild about the sound that I am hearing this kid get out of the XK1
-C. It sounds processed to me, and the high end sounds rather shrill
actually.

I have commented before about digital organs with built in "character". I
always listen to the upper register. Most of the time in these demos ,the
leslie sim is on all the time. And we can't wait to hit that fast speed
switch , can we?

I would have to hear it without the leslie sim, but custom tonewheel set or
not, it sounds like the same Hammond Suzuki sound I have been passing on
for many years.

Bottom line for me is - does it sound like a Hammond with NO leslie speeds
on , and is the chorus vibrato right? If not ,there are always the Italian
clones which is the way I would choose to go.
