The IK Multimedia Hammond B-3X is an expertly-modelled plugin emulation of an organ legend. Very few instruments in history have influenced the direction of modern music as much as Hammonds B-3 electro-mechanical organ. Now you can get this legendary sound directly at home in your favourite DAW. Deep customisation and meticulous modelling of multiple original units and collaboration with original developers Hammond Organ Company and Suzuki Musical Instruments for the most authentic recreation available from software. IK Multimedia have not simply sampled B-3 organs and placed the samples into a plugin but worked tirelessly to recreate every single circuit that comprised the original instrument and based these off of several different units to ensure accuracy. Every single dial and tweak you make to the 91 available tonewheels will behave just like the real thing. Youre even given control over the age of the unit to customise the electrical behaviour of the old circuits for tonal balance generator leakage and chorus presence. Beyond just the deep modelling of the organ itself the Hammond B-3X also includes accurate effects modelling. Utilising technology derived from IKs AmpliTube guitar effects suite analog-modelled overdrive graphic EQ chorus spring reverb and wah pedals provide further tone control options that sound just like the real things. The next stage in the signal chain is a cabinet section with accurately built Leslie rotary cabinet simulations with microphone positioning control and a range of amplifiers and cabs to choose from. And if youre looking for even more grit guitar amp emulation can give you that drive.
