- Two instruments battle.
1961 Hammond A100 organ connected to swell input Legend Live 1.6 OS. Leslie: 142 3 speed.
I think it's acceptable, often a good sound. Different organ sound models match the sound of the original organ in different places. The elementary sounds are close to the original, however, if there are more sounds or the sound is more complex, the digital sounds thinner compared to the analog.

Nice comparison... the audience would never know the difference...the new soul should be a killer.
Thanks. I sent to the factory a list of comments. I hope they take it into consideration.
Some listeners would hear the shimmer in the A100's C3 chorus. But I get why there are clones. I had a Hammond single manual clone... alright for club gigs, but my 1963 B3 which stayed home!
I think, the only way to notice the difference is a blind A B comparison to somebody who plays the vintage Hammond daily and it's a very small detail.
Thx for the video. Very helpful!
Bravo!!...
Great Demo. Excellent. Thank You
Thanks. I'm going to make another one, because the Viscount OS got an update, the vibrato is better, the sound is nicer.
Two Excellent Organs, Cool Comparison, Much Appreciated. 😎
The trained ear will pick it up every time.
Beau comparatif!
Question:
Le A100 passe par la Leslie, le Legend est avec la simulation Leslie sur quel type d’enceintes?
Belle prise de son! Avec quel matériel l’avez vous faite?
Je dispose d’un Genos, et d’un Hammond SKX avec Leslje 3300.
Je suis très tenté, par l’expander du Legend, qui me semble supérieur au SKX …
Qu’en pensez vous ?
Un bonjour de France!
Merci pour votre réponse .

Bonjour. J'ai réglé l'orgue Legend sur une sortie sèche, similaire à un orgue Hammond. J'ai connecté le signal de sortie à l'entrée du préamplificateur A100 A0-28 et il a sonné à travers le 145 Leslie. Identique à l'A100. C'est pourquoi j'ai contrôlé la vitesse de rotation avec le commutateur demi-lune sur l'A100.
Légende contre SKX. Je l'aime mieux car pour moi son son est plus dynamique et plus analogique. Je déconseille les modules, ils vacillent au dessus d'un instrument, pour l'orgue je préfère deux manuels édités dans un seul boitier. Dans le cas des types Viscount, en plus du Legend, il convient également de penser aux organes Soul sortis en février. C'est plus cher, mais ça peut faire plus. Cependant, les améliorations sonores seront, espérons-le, disponibles pour les orgues Legend à la fin du mois d'avril. C'est vrai, j'aime toujours jouer de l'instrument, j'allume rarement mon vrai Hammond.
very similar sound
It's like a curse when the audience can't tell,...but you yourself hate not hearing the missing tones.
It is indeed different, but as we move forward in time, it gets closer and closer to the real organ. A big curse is the heavy weight and delicate structure, which makes it impossible to take it to performances within reasonable limits.
Top octave...!
The first comment I often get on the subject of "original vs clone" is that in the audience nobody will hear the difference nowadays and therefore it doesn't matter which one you use. It's very understandable too, for obvious reasons: (1) There's simply a lack of comparison. How would the people in the audience know what a real Hammond could do on that same stage where the clone is set up?! (2) The sound quality of clones has reached a point where it becomes more and more difficult to distinguish them from original organs, which is also highlighted by this video. (3) Most bands don't feature a Hammond in a way where one would hear it in all its detail. #1 could be addressed by the fact that the musician should know what sounds best and therefore, it can only be the performer's choice what to use. Plus, instruments inspire musicians to perform on different levels. Of course, we completely ignore all issues related to moving an old Hammond for that matter. For #2, I've to admit that the generic/average Hammond console of the 1960ies is what most clones achieve to copy to a degree of approximately 90-95 %. That's especially the case for sound settings where only the first 3 or 4 drawbars are used and without the chorus effect. However, an outstanding old B3/C3 in great condition will still blow any clone out of the water (especially with the right Leslie speaker). Unfortunately, they're difficult to find and in most cases, old Hammonds aren't what they used to be. IMHO, #3 really decides whether to go on stage with an original Hammond or not. Anyway, all of this doesn't matter if you can play like this: czcams.com/video/W_X4jkF938Q/video.html.

Like the sound of this one, and doesn't matter if you can play like this too:

Major dust in my eyes. That video is how I want to remember him.
@@gingervytis I know that video of Joey, just incredible. I also like this one: czcams.com/video/uhFIupVoVKc/video.html.
Are they both going through the same Leslie?
Yes. Legend connected into the A100's preamp.
di8gital is real close -but not as chunky as analog--i own a mojo
Yes, the mid-range of the analog is clearer and more detailed. But not too much difference.
Viscount sounds plastic
Yes, it's a bit plastic, but the difference is acceptable despite the different sound production. Since then, a new OS version (may 2023, 1.6 ->1.9) has been released, which makes the sound even more lifelike. Especially considering that the Legend only weighs 18 kg and can be carriable on the shoulder.
