Ok - real quick and rough tested idea:
Select your favourite Organ-Preset.
Route it through the wah-wah effect.
Modulate the Wah-Wah Effect with the ribbon.
Alternatively instead of using the ribbon you can assign the wah-modAMS to a foot pedal.
Learn how to play this. You have to synchronize your glissando on the keyboard with the ribbon slide. This is not easy.
I just ruined my right hand by trying this too intense on the Kronos88 wooden keyboard.
Here some pix of the settings:

Good answer! Ahaha, to not ruin my hand i use a pair of fingerless gloves ! so when i do the glissato, with the other hand i have to control the ribbon?

Two summers ago a managed to ask Jordan Rudess how he deals with doing organ slides on his Oasys and he told me he beats up his hands every gig. I tend to play a lot of Hammond stuff on my K73 and I've just learned to be careful. In both of my bands I do a ton of organ playing and I've just somehow figured out how not to hurt myself. I just don't let my fingers anywhere near the weighted keys when I'm doing a palm smear and I don't press too hard. I only play intense when I need too. That tends to be most of the time by the way! Many many years ago in a moment of passion I ploughed all of the black keys off of my Crumar organ and proceeded to rip my hand apart on the slide back up. Blood everywhere! Hurt like hell but what a show!

New Kronos 76 with waterfall keys! Have you heard?
Suitable for organ and piano sounds, like the keys on the Nord Electro.
I would have bought one isntead of the K61 if it weighted like 14kg...

Would have been perfect for an Alice Cooper Show
Yeah, it´s really too bad...
I´ve been playing my Oasys76 for years and was unhappy with the keyboard when playing piano. Now with Kronos88 i can´t play Organ... but you can´t have it all.
My mistake with the slides is, in my early years i got used to do the slide up with the back of my hand and downwards with the palm. So i always mess up the back, rubbing the skin off. If i watch Jon Lord, he´s doing the slides with the palm of his hand in both directions. I´ve got to rehearse this and get used to it.
Meanwhile I´m using an M-Audio Axiom61 for the Organ parts in combination with Kronos, that´s pretty slick.
BTW A couple of years ago I had the chance to have a close look at JR´s setup.. He´s avoiding these slides as good as possible. He´s a very nice guy.
Here a couple of pix:

Michael Sadler of SAGA made them famous in the 80´s.
I´m using them when playing open air if it´s really cold, but they handicap me slightly.
