2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 GENERAL FEATURES OF LEGEND AND LEGEND LIVE
Legend
and
Legend Live
are two-manual digital organs that can simulate, thanks to the new sound
generation technology
TMT (Tonewheel Modeling Technology), all the features of the electromechanical organ
commonly known as
Hammond.
This innovative synthesis technology with physical models takes into account all the factors that affect the
sound of the original organs, such as the perfect synchronization of the sound wheel, imperfect electrical
circuits, engine noises, etc ...
Each manual has two sets of nine drawbars, plus two drawbars for the Viscount optional pedalboard or any
other MIDI pedalboard. Without a pedalboard, these two drawbars can be played with the first two octaves of
the lowest manual.
The
Legend,
model has inverted colours on the first octave of both manuals, that can be used for the selection
of one of the two drawbar Sets or the 9 user editable Presets. The Legend Live model allows the selection of
two sets, and two presets for each Manual, through the buttons on the left panel.
Keyboards are of "waterfall" type. Every organ effect and noise can be controlled through the panel. Options
include reverb level, reverb type, distortion, rotating speaker type, percussion, three-band equalizer, Keyclick
and Crosstalk noise.
The user can select three different types of electromechanical organ from different periods, each with its own
sound features: BC Model from the '30s, B3 Model from the '50s, A100 Model from the '70s.
There are also the typical effect controls, such as Vibrato and Chorus, percussion and the famous lever speed
switch of the Rotary loudspeaker. The organ makes it possible to simulate this speaker
,
but it is also possible
to connect a real one through the classic 11-pin connector on the back panel.
Furthermore, it is also possible to use the instrument as the Gospel musicians did, that is, with inverted
drawbar sets.
