How to get the sound of Jon Lord?

I read that the Lord used the Marshall amplifier for your Hammond. How to get a sound Kronos? This is the original sound (multitrack):

Which is better to use the virtual amplifier of Kronos?

I don't really know how close you are going to get with the Kronos amp models
That great Lord sound was driven by old marshal stacks from what I recall. There was even variation in sound between the older Marshall heads.
Not very helpful- Roland had a SRX for the Jon Lord sound. I think it came close enough

My Kronos has an organ patch called something like "Smoke in Japan" that my bandmates dug for Highway Star - way better than anything on the Jon Lord SRX card right off the bat IMHO. I bought mine (my Kronos) recently used, so not 100% sure if this patch comes on board out of the box or if the previous owner put it on.

Look here this variant (2 hours has spent probably my best not to get):

Maybe someone has any ideas will be?

I watched this (and other options) - this is not what is needed

The Smoke In Japan Patch is pretty good. I can't remember if it came as a preset (unlikely), a free CX3 bonus sound or the paid for Organimation sound set.

I have 2 versions: Smoke In Japan & Smoke In Japan V2. Unfortunately this is not what you need!

Smoke in Japan came with the Kronos. The thing to rememember is that Jon Lord used many different sounds depending on the song.

You can try this:
http://digitech.com/en-US/products/rp55
It's cheap (around 50.00 US) and has several amp models and overdrive settings. I have the previous model and got very close to that sound on my violin (!) and then threw the pedal on my old Kurz K2500 KB3, and I was very pleased with the outcome.
That said, you *will* have to use an accurate drawbar setting for the various pieces you want to play.

Probably not helpful. But, when I play a PD song I use my Nord. I love my K2 a lot! It's just easier to use the clone-wheel.

Was there any particular song you were thinking about playing?
