Order the new Hammond XK5 Organ at http://www.musiciansfriend.com/namm-new-products?source=3GOA6AKB.
The design of HAMMOND’s new flagship portable draws on the original B-3’s blueprints, capturing its sound and feel with unmatched accuracy and soul. Its patent-pending technologies include an all-new sound engine that combines modeling and sampling, and reproduces every nuance of the classic electro-mechanical tone wheel generator. A proprietary custom keyboard action provides the heft, bounce, key travel, and multi-contact behavior of classic HAMMOND consoles. Further features include four full sets of drawbars plus pedal drawbars, a control layout identical to the B-3, plus the latest generation, ultra-realistic Digital Leslie. The depth of control gives it the ability to duplicate individual Hammonds down to the model, year, condition and serial number, with downloadable tone-wheel profiles upcoming from famous HAMMOND organists. The XK-5 also may be expanded to a double manual, with the top upgrade featuring the timeless “4-poster” design of a B-3.
