IK Multimedia Hammond B-3X reproduces the legendary sound of the most well-known tonewheel organ in a new virtual instrument enhanced with sound expanding features.
IK Multimedia’s latest virtual instrument is an authentic emulation of the Hammond B-3 tonewheel organ. The Hammond B-3X is created in closed collaboration with Hammond USA and Suzuki Music Corp. of Japan along with top artists. It meticulously recreates the sound, controls and entire effects signal path of the legendary Hammond B-3.
This new organ virtual instrument is based on the latest IK modeling technologies that recreate in detail the sound of this legendary instrument.
In addition to its authentic organ sound, this new instrument offers a full-rig chain including stomp effects, an extended version of IK’s Leslie® Collection with a rotary cabinet with mix-and-match amp and cabinet models plus four microphones, a parallel guitar amp with 4×12 cabinet, a mixer and three studio post effects.
