The All New KEY B Duo Organ
 
ACCESSORIES

 


 

  • LATEST IN MODELING TECHNOLOGY
    The KeyB Duo uses DLQ's own "Instrument Modeling Technology™." With " IMT" you hear an exact clone of the classic tonewheel organ. The result is the natural sound of tonewheels that can't be obtained when using traditional sampling. IMT provides the best reproduction of the sound produced by a tonewheel organ, including cross talk, tonewheel flutter, electric hum and octave tapers.
  • The KeyB Organ is not just a B3 clone! You have at your fingertips EXACT representations of the following instruments:

    1959 Hammond C3

    This Hammond Organ is owned by Joey DeFrancesco and is his personal favorite having great condition Wax Capacitors. The organ was used by Jimmy Smith to record many album tracks over the years, including "Georgia On My Mind".

    1968 Hammond RT3

    This Hammond Organ was designed for the Church Market and is installed with Mylar Capacitors giving a higher frequency sound than Joeys B3. The leakage is noticeably different too.

    Late 1960s chopped A100

    This custom Hammond Organ has mid range leakage due to the shorter resistance wires as a result of the organ being split.

    Late 70s B3

    This Organ was used by Brian Auger. It has Mylar Capacitors and not too much leakage. Its a very good example of Hammond B3 and a favorite among many of our owners.

    B3 without Foldback.

    This is Joeys '59 Hammond B3 but without foldback.


  • ALL NEW ROTARY SIMULATION

  • EASY TO PLAY

Everything you need and are familiar with, on a classic tonewheel organ, is there right where it belongs. No confusing menus or LCD screens full of features that you most likely don't or won't use. After all,
    it's an organ.

  • WATERFALL KEYBOARDS
    keyb_duo-kbrd.jpg (94908 bytes) Along with the best sound and being easy to play, the KeyB Duo has two heavy-duty 61-note keyboards with the feel of an organ, not a synthesizer or cheap portable keyboard. If you play pedals, then you can purchase the optional 25 full-sized console pedals. The KeyB pedals are heavy-duty and are same radius as the classic tonewheel organs, which makes playing the pedals feel right.

  • FULL COMPLEMENT OF TONEBARS
    duotonebr.jpg (11429 bytes) If you have been playing a classic tonewheel organ, then you will feel at home with the KeyB Duo. It has two full sets of 9 drawbars for the upper keyboard, two full sets of 9 tonebars for the lower keyboard, and 2 pedal drawbars.

  • HARMONIC PERCUSSION
    duoperc.jpg (79771 bytes) Located right where they belong are the rocker tabs to control the 2nd and 3rd Harmonic Percussion. Soft and Normal Percussion Volume, Fast and Slow Percussion Attack. Everything you need.

  • SPLIT KEYBOARD VIBRATO AND CHORUS
    duocrsvib.jpg (64168 bytes) You can use Vibrato/Chorus independently or together just like the classic drawbar organ. Use the familiar rotary control to select all three Vibrato and Chorus settings.

  • EXTERNAL SPEAKER READY
    The KeyB Duo can be connected to either a keyboard amplifier or if you need more power, connect it to an external rotary speaker via the line outs.

  • MIDI IMPLEMENTATION
    The KeyB Duo has MIDI out for the keyboards and the pedals. You can connect an external MIDI sound module, and with the touch of a button you can play with or without the organ sound.
