It does this by using a dedicated DSP platform \u2014 optimised specifically for this organ \u2014 that runs the GSi VB3-II engine directly inside the instrument, ensuring ultra-low latency and consistent performance without the need for external gear.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Every part of the playing experience is designed with organists in mind. Two 61-note semi-weighted waterfall keyboards feel familiar under your hands, while real drawbars, dedicated percussion controls, vibrato switches, and rotary speed controls keep essential functions easy to reach. You can also use features such as Drawbar Hold, manual split, and pedal-to-lower mode to adapt the instrument to your playing style.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For even more customisation and sound shaping, there are onboard controls for tonewheel leakage, key click, scanner vibrato, EQ, overdrive, reverb, and percussion. Plus, the rotary speaker simulation includes adjustable microphone placement, rotor behaviour, and tube-style feedback, helping you dial in anything from subtle warmth to a more driven vintage sound.<\/p>\n<p>Connectivity-wise, you get balanced outputs, MIDI, USB MIDI, dual USB host ports, headphone connectivity, and pedal inputs.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.gear4music.com\/Keyboards-and-Pianos\/Crumar-Mojo-Classic-Virtual-Tonewheel-Organ\/78WA&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;CHECK THE CURRENT PRICE&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;NEW CTA Button&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;14px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#0e95cf&#8221; button_border_width=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_border_color=&#8221;#0e95cf&#8221; button_font=&#8221;Arial|700|||||||&#8221; button_icon=&#8221;&#x35;||divi||400&#8243; button_icon_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;10px|30px||30px|false|false&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset6&#8243; box_shadow_blur=&#8221;2px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;3.

It offers a drastically improved organ engine, a comprehensive set of effects, and a triple-sensor keybed, along with a host of other intuitive features.<\/p>\n<p>First up, the refined B3 emulation gives you all the warmth, texture, and detailed nuances of the original organ. Drawbar settings, harmonic overtones, and more have been captured, and thanks to the rotary speaker emulation, the Organ 3 also recreates amp and speaker characteristics with multiple microphone placements. You can customise the rotor speed and acceleration rates to sculpt the rotary effect.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, with improved Farfisa and Vox models, the Nord Organ 3 brings classic transistor sounds to all styles of performances. And there are two pipe organ emulations for an even broader variety of sounds.<\/p>\n<p>For full creativity and scope to shape your sound exactly to your taste, the organ comes with an expanded effects section. There&#8217;s Spring Reverb, Analog Delay, and Modulation Effects such as phaser, tremolo, ring mod, and flanger. And for even more precise sound sculpting, the Pre-Rotary feature lets you apply reverb before the rotary effect.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of usability and playability, the organ has a triple-sensor keybed, an 11-pin Leslie connector for use in live and studio setups, and an OLED display.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.gear4music.com\/Keyboards-and-Pianos\/Nord-Organ-3\/6XKL&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;CHECK THE CURRENT PRICE&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;NEW CTA Button&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;14px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#0e95cf&#8221; button_border_width=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_border_color=&#8221;#0e95cf&#8221; button_font=&#8221;Arial|700|||||||&#8221; button_icon=&#8221;&#x35;||divi||400&#8243; button_icon_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;10px|30px||30px|false|false&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset6&#8243; box_shadow_blur=&#8221;2px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;4.

Its origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when inventors began experimenting with electronic devices that could produce sounds similar to those of traditional pipe organs.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Over time, these devices became more sophisticated, and by the 1950s, electric organs had become popular in jazz, rock, and pop music and slowly made their way onto music scenes in the 1960s and 1970s with bands such as Deep Purple and The Doors incorporating organs into a lot of their music. One of the most notable pieces of music played on an electric organ is Stevie Wonder\u2019s &#8220;Superstition&#8221;. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The instrument&#8217;s versatility and unique sound made it a favourite of musicians looking to experiment with new sounds and ways of playing.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Today, the electric organ continues to be used by musicians around the world, in many different genres.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-31502 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard.jpg\" alt=\"Roland VR-09-B V-Combo Keyboard\" width=\"1330\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard.jpg 1330w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-1080x540.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-1280x640.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-980x490.jpg 980w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard-480x240.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1330px) 100vw, 1330px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Things to consider when buying an electric organ &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-45928375-1fd3-4d7e-b1f0-0adee316b54f%22:%91%22border_color_top%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_to_consider_when_buying_an_electric_organ\"><\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Things to consider when buying an electric organ<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_presets_and_effects_do_you_need\"><\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Which presets and effects do you need?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It&#8217;s a good idea to take into account what you want to get out of your playing, for example, are you looking to incorporate certain effects into your sound? Some organs come complete with percussion effects and vibrato, whilst others have a wide range of presets for you to play with. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">If you&#8217;re looking for a more piano-based organ, opt for an electric organ with a good choice of piano presets. Some people do prefer to have a varied amount of voices to choose from, more so than what an electric organ can provide. In this instance, workstations are a great way of achieving a varied amount of sounds &#8211; especially if you want a piano that also functions as a workstation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Models such as the <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gear4music.com\/Keyboards-Modules\/Workstations\/Roland?page=1&amp;filters[91]=8335\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roland Fantom Series<\/a><\/strong><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> synthesizer keyboards offer legendary sounds with everything you need to create and perform your own music.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_the_quality_of_sampled_sounds\"><\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Check the quality of sampled sounds<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The variety and quality of sampled sounds can vary depending on the organ. If you&#8217;re looking to use your electric organ simply for practising, you may not be bothered about paying more for high-quality sounds. However, if you want to gig and record with your electric organ, realistic-sounding samples would be beneficial, so you should choose an organ to reflect this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The polyphony of the electric organ is another aspect to be aware of. This will determine how full the overall sound is, essentially representing how many notes can be played at one time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_you_need_a_sustain_pedal\"><\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Do you need a sustain pedal?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Although it&#8217;s not always needed, a sustain pedal could be extremely beneficial to your sound. A sustain pedal delivers more body to your sound, ensuring it doesn&#8217;t feel thin.

Its origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when inventors began experimenting with electronic devices that could produce sounds similar to those of traditional pipe organs.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Over time, these devices became more sophisticated, and by the 1950s, electric organs had become popular in jazz, rock, and pop music and slowly made their way onto music scenes in the 1960s and 1970s with bands such as Deep Purple and The Doors incorporating organs into a lot of their music. One of the most notable pieces of music played on an electric organ is Stevie Wonder\u2019s \"Superstition\". <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The instrument's versatility and unique sound made it a favourite of musicians looking to experiment with new sounds and ways of playing.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Today, the electric organ continues to be used by musicians around the world, in many different genres.<\/span><\/p><p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-31502 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/stateless-blog-g4m-co-uk\/2023\/10\/Roland-VR-09-B-V-Combo-Keyboard.jpg\" alt=\"Roland VR-09-B V-Combo Keyboard\" width=\"1330\" height=\"665\" \/><\/p><hr \/><h3><span data-contrast=\"none\">Things to consider when buying an electric organ<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"134245418\":true,\"134245529\":true,\"201341983\":0,\"335559738\":40,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3><h4><span data-contrast=\"none\">Which presets and effects do you need?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"134245418\":true,\"134245529\":true,\"201341983\":0,\"335559738\":40,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It's a good idea to take into account what you want to get out of your playing, for example, are you looking to incorporate certain effects into your sound? Some organs come complete with percussion effects and vibrato, whilst others have a wide range of presets for you to play with. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">If you're looking for a more piano-based organ, opt for an electric organ with a good choice of piano presets. Some people do prefer to have a varied amount of voices to choose from, more so than what an electric organ can provide. In this instance, workstations are a great way of achieving a varied amount of sounds - especially if you want a piano that also functions as a workstation. <\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Models such as the <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gear4music.com\/Keyboards-Modules\/Workstations\/Roland?page=1&filters[91]=8335\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roland Fantom Series<\/a><\/strong><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> synthesizer keyboards offer legendary sounds with everything you need to create and perform your own music.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><hr \/><h4><span data-contrast=\"none\">Check the quality of sampled sounds<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"134245418\":true,\"134245529\":true,\"201341983\":0,\"335559738\":40,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The variety and quality of sampled sounds can vary depending on the organ. If you're looking to use your electric organ simply for practising, you may not be bothered about paying more for high-quality sounds. However, if you want to gig and record with your electric organ, realistic-sounding samples would be beneficial, so you should choose an organ to reflect this.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The polyphony of the electric organ is another aspect to be aware of. This will determine how full the overall sound is, essentially representing how many notes can be played at one time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><hr \/><h4><span data-contrast=\"none\">Do you need a sustain pedal?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"134245418\":true,\"134245529\":true,\"201341983\":0,\"335559738\":40,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Although it's not always needed, a sustain pedal could be extremely beneficial to your sound.
