ORGAN SECTION
ORGAN TYPE
ere are various “Organ” types: the Hammond Tone Wheel organs used in every-
where rock, jazz, and Gospel, the transistor organ frequently heard in pop music of
1960’s. Classical pipe organ used in classical music or church services. All organs have
characteristic sounds.
e SKX will sound like the types of organ you choose.
TONE-WHEELS (BType1, BType2, Mellow)
These are various types of Hammond Organs’ characteristic Tone Wheels. The
Hammond Organ’s original purpose was to duplicate the pipe organ, however, they
became famous for producing a unique sound of their own.
e BType1 and BType2 have the B-3/C-3’s traditional Tone Wheel sounds. e
BType2 has more wow- utter and leakage noise.
e Mellow is not a Tone Wheel, if strictly speaking. It replicates the rst-generation
non-mechanical Transistor Hammond Tone Generators like the GT-7 and Concord.
TRANSISTOR ( Vx, Farf)
After the transistor became generally used, the light weight organs were introduced
(such as Ace Tone TOP-6 etc.) using the transistor circuit instead of the Tone Wheels
or tubes. e circuit system is di erent from maker to maker or model by model. We
have replicated 2 representative types here.
e Vx is a type to combine the triangle wave and square wave with several footages.
e Farf is one to combine the sound wave forms coming through plural lters with
the tablet switch.
PIPE
e pipe organ produces sounds by oscillating the air sent through the pipe. e
name of Stops tells you which wind instruments that you are duplication.
You can create other sounds by combining di erent organ Stops, in the same way
Drawbars are used on the SKX.
