Could you please do a tutorial how to play You Fool No One on Organ? I saw the show with Glenn Hughes at the Winchester the other night, it was amazing!

great b3

Nice!

Flawless

Sounded great. What happened to Michael Jackson in Disney land ?

How do you connect your XK5 to the 145? Sounds great

Thanks !!! great song and great video

Try to compare them on overload

Excellent, tasteful organ playing, man. And the bass player is no slouch!

Sounds great!!! Can I still get the settings for my Xk5? Thanks for sharing.

400 pound real Hammond no longer needed

nice one!!

Jesus, both sound heavenly!

Awesome!

Awesome!!

How do you send the signal output of the organ to the recording? I use the microphone off the iPhone, and… well… it sounds like crap. I’d like to learn how to do that, and make my recordings a little more professional.

Bonjour, tout le monde dit que le son du XK5 est meilleurs que celui du SKX pro, pourquoi puisque c'est le même générateur "Modelled Tone Wheel 1" (MTW1) , merci pour vos réponses Hello, everyone says that the sound of the XK5 is better than that of the SKX pro, why since it is the same generator "Modelled Tone Wheel 1" (MTW1), thank you for your answers, have a good day

Great!!!

Wonderful Hammond sound 👍🏻 How did you wired the xk3c to the 147 ? I got the same organ and am going to get a 147 cabinet. Thanks in advance and greetings from France ✌🏻

Nice biting overdriven tone. Kinda almost reminded of Steve Winwood’s solo in “Low Spark of High Heeled Boys”- at the beginning.

I have a 57 b3 and a 68 122. Obviously they are going through the same leslie. In a blindfold test, i couldn't tell one from the other. When people say that digital clones are thinner/shrill in the upper octave it is because of the internal/external sim going through a powered monitor, that's what makes it shrill. There is no shrillness when going through a tube leslie.

Great comparison video. Top job

Can't beat that Hammond sound!

I want to learn those scales!! How can i do?

VERY VERY close.. just a bit warmer/fatter in certain parts on the B3.. most of the parts I can't even tell the difference .. I closed my eyes and listened and was wrong 1/2 the time.. the full chords in lower octaves sound a bit warmer on the B3... all in all though... incredible simulation... and a lot easier to carry in the lower manual (20 lbs) and upper XK 5 (40 lbs?) to a gig... side story.. I was pricing out a utility trailer and Kari organ moving dolly set so I could bring my A 100 to gigs.. and it was like 2000 bucks.. so I bought a lower manual instead for about the same.. and now I can carry the whole B3 in under both arms :)

Was your original B3 rebuilt at some point or does it have the original capacitors? What year was it built?

Impressive.

From a Hammond fan- boy, I’m glad there are alternatives out there for musicians that don’t want to hire a moving crew to play keys. I think it sounds great. Is it as good as my dad’s B3 with a high boy Leslie hot Rodded out with dual fender showman amps? No. But it’s damn great.

Bob, great demo! Thanks for making this video. This may seem like a minor point but how did you get that intense tremolo sound with the leslie on the high speed ( around 1:35 ) Did it have to do with microphone positioning? thanks Harry

Some Difference

Hammond XK5 is realy a fantastic instrument.

Were both instruments playing on the same Leslie speaker?

Real B3 for living room, XK5 for stage!

Although I think the "real deal" sounds better and obviously more authentic, I would probably still get the XK5 if I had the money because those old instruments seem to malfunction all the time...

Amazing..!! You have done my countrymans good piece of music so much better. All respect for Mike Andersen, but you and your Hammond is doing this number so GOOD. I have listen to it many times the last days and it,s just getting better and better. It absolute deserve a much larger audience - with you.

Have you compared the XK-5 to the SK lineup or the XK1c?

So beautiful. Thank you.

I've had both. I like the x better. Much easier on the back.

Stereo out or mono on the vent? Sounds great

Awesome comparison. The B3 sounds a tad better especially with the fast leslie sounds, but not sure if it is 440lbs better.

Can't hear the difference through my JBL!

Fantastic demo. Sounds almost identical. My question is, how in the heck do you learn how to customize the tonewheels and contacts?! That looks way too complex to attempt. I've adjusted most of the other parameters and am super happy with the sound so far.

Excellent comparison. For a studio keyboard player looking for a better sounding B3 sound and a better keyboard to play it with I'd say the XK-5 would do the trick. Perhaps for an upgrade even in the studio for listening and maybe recording a new small Leslie Studio 12+ Rotary Combo Amp. Also since this review it seems like Hammond has released the SKX Dual Manual 61 and even newer SKpro which Hammond says uses the XK-5 sound but with simulated water fall keyboard effect, but not mechanical keyboard applied. So now I have 3 choices to choose from. I am thinking the XK-5 still is the best close copy as the newer SKX and SKpro models expand into additional keyboard sounds and do not dedicate to the B3 copy as much. Thoughts?

Great job! The organ engine in the XK5, and now also in the SK Pro, is the closest any clone has come yet. You've brought even closer, and to your own B3. Very cool.

Where do you get the playalong tracks WITHOUT keyboard part? As a fan of Jon Lord I'm always looking for some keyboard-less mixes. Or are there tools around which deletes mostly the keyboard tracks?

Love that solo 🎹👍

What an incredible demo - and sound! Im amazed at how real these keyboards sound

B3 is more lively, guesses with closed eyes.

wij zijn fan!

Amazing covers! Absolutely on point! Would you mind sharing your settings for the synth patch on Stormbringer? It would be much appreciated!
