Title: Hammond B3 Drawbars
Post by: preshuskeys on October 02, 2007, 06:50:49 PM
I am a fairly new organ player however I am having trouble finding the right sounds. So if anyone could give me some suggestions on the drawbar settings I would greatly appreciate it.  I play a hammond b3  ;D(my baby) and I need some good sounds for shouting music and preaching music.  So if you have any suggestions pleasssssse let me know.

Thanks

here are a few (from darkwing)


84 8400 000 Basic Mellow Setting

78 8888 888 As Screamin' As It Gets (compare this to 88 8888 888, it's quite surprising how much more bite you get by pushing the 16' in just a little) Use with tremelo and vibrato set to C-3

67 8000 000 Jimmy Smith's Solo sound (use on upper manual with percussion on, Normal, Fast Decay, and Third Harmonic) Proper percussion technique will ensure that you get a 'pop' on every note. Playing staccato will give you the right sound, otherwise the 'pop' will become less noticeable with each note played.

80 0008 888 The Signature Sizzle

08 8800 000 Gospel Solo (Use on upper manual with no vibrato or tremolo while chording on lower manual)

87 6543 218 A different sound I came up with

81 2345 678 Another different sound I came up with
