free is cool? But I want to control the speed of the Leslie, the amp settings, the draw bars, etc... I think NI's Vintage Organs is the shizite... You can't beat um... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44qjqplaZss I'm a fan of the B4 personally; I couldn't find any youtube videos that did it justice... This one's pretty cool, but you have to let it load; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvwvt4JStSw I personally like the soul explosion preset, combined with the bug 16 preset. And the ability to control the Leslie, and the amps and the draw bars... I'm a fan of the Hammonds? This one just seems a little under powered.

Yes this freebee is a pretty limited thing for sure, but it will be intresting to see where they go with the full product. I have both B4 II and Vintage Organs. Vintage Organs is very good at the cleaner sounds but is some how lacking at the distorted end. If I am after Jon Lord type sounds I am usually using the DI settings and routing it through Amplitube and LX122. Sampletekk's Tonewheel is a well worn L-100 with plenty of umph that covers ground the others do not. And GSI's excellent VB3 has finally been updated to 64 bit with the promise of further updates to come. http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3032408

I agree. There are other good B3 emulations out there. This new one is interesting, but so limited it is of limited use. The concept is interesting, but the draw bars only change volume, not tone. So there is one fixed tone for bass, and one for the chords; granted there is one dial to change eq. I would be interested in seeing how the full version works, but hope it has more than one tone. BTW, I find GSI's VB3 great for that Jon Lord overdriven tone. I love NI's Vintage Organs and discontinued B4 (what a bad move), but still find VB3 better for dirty overdiven rock B3 sounds. I will try your suggestion of running NI's organs through Amplitude to hear how it sound driven. Bottom line about this new freebie bass and chord hammond for me: it got me interested, but as is, it is not really useful because of such single minded tone.

Here is a demo of the HamMR+A LOT more capable than the free one. The HamMR Growler will be a single drawbar setting by the looks of it
