I took that to the first gig that I went clone on, using the onboard sim and thought the night would never end.
Hammond organ make keyclick louder upgrade#
This was an upgrade from the old analog CX3. My clone of choice is the newer Korg CX3. I've recorded a bunch of "modeling" amps in the studio, and have never found one that sits in a mix anywhere near a real tube amp (and usually end up reamping them through a tube amp when all's said and done. Because of tuning issues the rhodes and clav stay in the studio, but I've been known to drag the wurly out regularly. I prefer a real wurly to anything I've heard so far trying to imitate it. I use the real leslie whenever I can fit it in, and the vent only comes out when I can't fit the real one in the gig. I prefer the real thing toward any digital simulations for the most part. I'll also tip my hand as far as my prejudices go. Two, to let you know even though my "standard" if you will for listening in the studio is close miked through a stereo monitoring source, I also have a good deal of experience in front of a real leslie in both small and big inside venues and outside. I'm giving these details for two reasons, one, to counter any arguments I've read that go something like this:” Yes a real leslie sounds good, but product A sounds as good as you're going to get even if you mic a real one because you're only hearing it in stereo". When using a real leslie live I'm sitting about 5-10 feet away from it. In the studio my hammonds are listened to through either KRK or Alexis studio monitors with two Sure PG57's close micing the top rotor (switched from SM57's, the curve mellows the leslie out a bit), and a beta 52 on the lower rotor, panned center about a foot away. That might account for my fussiness as far as Hammond sounds go.
I'm a studio rat for the most part that does limited gigging, and has a studio loaded with 4 hammonds (three tonewheels), three clones, and 3 leslies. The rest of the time I use my tried and true leslie 50C (the rest being about 30 open jams and around a dozen gigs. I've had a vent a little over months now and used it live for one jam, two performances, and two rehearsals.
