Subject:Re: Mojo xt

Agreed. I'll had that I had some chances to play the most recent Legend lately and, while it's great, out of the box I prefer the Mojo by a good margin.

Both instruments are very customizable and I'd be curious to have a legen home to see if I could craft a sound I like on it, though.

The Mojo XT, sound-wise, is arguably, as good as ANY current product on the market, whether it’s the new Hammond XK-5 or the viscount Legend, or any of the HOAX based products.. the VB3 II engine is “fully formed”, and it doesn’t really require any further development.. It has awesome authentic tonewheel organ sound, including an excellent built in leslie sim, and it’s complete, as is.

If I was looking for a new dual manual organ, and my budget was $2500, I would give the XT serious consideration. I would take it over the Hammond SK2 or SKX (because the tonewheel emulation is far superior in the Mojo XT). The Mojo XT does use an external editor, BUT that’s not a bad thing.. It’s much easier to edit the numerous editable parameters using the Windows based editor than using a small LED screen!!

I expect that there will be further development on this product.
