My goal on this combi is to use already existing progs so anyone can use it hassle free. Some of the other combis out there have created multiple SIN patches at different tunings (which don't make sense when you have a transpose function).

Playing around with effects and things like Attack and Sustain give LOTS of varying results. I think it's very possible to get a passable B3 doing this.

OK, I uploaded the M50/M3 drawbar combi. This isn't close to being done but you'll get a good idea where I'm at. You don't need to overwrite any of your progs as it uses the GM patch for the SINE prog.

I'm still EQ'ing and trying to figure out a way to do some type of percussion type sound. Adding key click will be easy. I also added some distortion to the value slider.

Have fun and if you improve the organ, re-post it!

Regarding percussion as McHale mentioned, it should be fairly easy to make a (multiple trigger) percussion program by using a sine wave with a fairly fast linear decay. Then place it in a combi with transposition that creates the harmonic you want.

On a related note, my plan is to release a full-on, professional B3 sound library for the M3 this week. (See my signature.) I'll update the K-Sounds site when it's available.

EDIT: Organimation is now available at K-Sounds!

Nice! I had Organimation on the Motif ES I sold after buying my M3, it'll be nice to have it back again!

The way I see it, every tutorial is an oportunity to learn the machine a little more, regardless of the topic being discussed. The techniques always have broader applications...

So I say go for it! I am sure most will agree... :D


Cheers!
