I think Hammond has a real winner with this product. I will be making a custom tonewheel set for it based on my ’54 Hammond C2 and this will be available on my site as well as the Hammond site for free. This is an all-tube spinet style organ that Id purchased. One of my favorites is a re-creation of a 1940’s Hammond BV through a Leslie 31H tallboy. This sample library was made to serve as a farewell to my beloved Hammond L102 Tonewheel Organ. The presets are for the most part well programmed and display the range of tones available. To my ear, Hammond’s past instruments all needed substantial tweaking before they sounded as good as their potential, but the XK1c comes from the factory sounding really great. The sound right out of the box is very good. This was recorded straight into Cubase 7 with no external processing except for a very light limiter added to the final mix for web delivery purposes. Here is a quick improvisation using the very first stock preset on the XK1c and the internal Leslie sim. Again, a tonewheel console like a B3 does this as well and it isn’t loud or distracting. A similar understated ‘click’ is audible when holding a note or chord and pressing the chorus/vibrato tabs on or off. It is barely noticeable but tonewheel Hammond organs do the same thing, even those with smooth drawbars. It was designed to fit the songwriting-friendly format of EZkeys and includes the most characteristic pipe organ stops and instruments. The drawbars exhibit a very understated ‘click’ in the audio when moved. The Hammond organ is an electric organ, invented by Laurens Hammond and John M. Hammond also added some very subtle details to make the sound even more authentic. This imparts some tonal characteristics reminiscent of cabinet resonance to the Leslie sim. The range is from -64 (dry) to +64 (100% wet).Īnother difference is the COLOR parameter in the Leslie simulation menu. It allows you to dial in some “age” to the virtual chorus/vibrato line, not unlike the capacitors in a real tonewheel organ aging over time. Users have been asking for this ability for some time. First is a MIX parameter for the chorus/vibrato, which controls the balance between the dry signal and the affected signal.

The organ engine has a few differences from the current OS in the SK series (though this may change).
