I haven't seen any upper tiers that sit low enough yet but that is interesting what you have I never knew it was two stands hah

Yeah, the challenge isn't just fitting the two keyboards close together, but also having enough space for the stand arms that are between them. You can see the round plastic caps on the ends of the arms in my picture, left one is just above the lowest F# key on the DX-7. Adds an extra inch between them.

Maybe a podium type stand would be better for an organ rig? The rake angle is built in, and the arms are thinner than the 1" diameter tubes that make up these stands. And it appears to be infinitely adjustable as far as heights.

Hmm did not think about that type of stand that should work for sure

Wow, the new Crumar Mojo has VB3 built in as its voice engine.

I think if I was buying today, this might be what I'd get.

Wonder if we'll ever see x64 vB3. Doesn't seem a priority.

He's so right about the treble and the fast speeds back when I had my real leslie serviced (sold state) I ended up having it adjusted so it would not spin as fast and I ended up putting a lot of slack in the belts so it would not be up to speed in 11 second but take about 3.

And looking at the Mojo site that's not a bad price at all

That's new VB3 II.

I assume it's quicker to do a embedded setup then the Windows program? They kinda both sound the same I would be curious what major changes it has.

That was a sweet case it came in.. makes me wonder do I upgrade my digital camera body next year or this?? hmmmmm... lol

No reason it can't be the same program. Software doesn't know or care what kind of Windows it's running on. I worked a bit with Embedded XP a few years ago. It's cool, you can roll your own operating system, putting in only the components you need.

The part that would be missing is the host. But it's not that hard to write a standalone host for a single plug-in. Or maybe they licensed an existing one.

I wonder if Crumar would like to start making physical Poly-Anas.

lol so I'm looking at this Ultimate Stand video on youtube.. I have to ask one question since I've never seen one play these sitting down.. wont putting a expression pedal be a little awkward?

Could be. Looks like it has some right leg right next to where you'd want the pedal to go.

Use the real thing man!!! I'm so jealous you have access to such things!

hah Or I can make things really simple and just stick with one keyboard

But right now we are renting out the school auditorium and to get the B3 and Leslie out of Storage plus bringing it into the school and up on the stage is a lot of work.. then moving it back in storage 4 days later.. My friend already said he was not doing it..

Just to think how I got it up on the stage at the old church by myself it's like 350 lbs more then me lol

But here is a collection of pictures I took after I finally rolled out the B3 on the stage.. Oh man now that I look back on it.. (I recapped the whole TWG) I put some serious hours into it.. I'd go direct from work to the church to start working on it or stay overnight..

I'm scared to move it because we had to move it before I put the TWG lockdown bolts in so it will swing.. and everything Hammond is not cheap.. a bass pedal finger is $10 each.. I had a good friend custom make me replacement screws so the pedals would not hit each other while playing.

part of me wants the real B3 out but part of me wants to not deal with the move because you can always get people to help you but when it's time to break down.. you know the deal..


Ok pictures

Beautiful! I want the C3!

And yes, B3s weigh something like 450 lbs without the pedalboard. Yikes! Even my Leslie 145 with the amp taken out was 100 lbs. (And the amp added about another 30 but I always took it out during transport.)

They do make dollies for Hammonds. Though they won't help much on the stairs.

haha that's a A100 but a C3 is nice too yeah I know about the dolly for the organ but I told them on any stuff out of state this organ is not getting moved like the A100.. that thing looks a mess with nicks all over it.. It really got beat up being on the road.

Oh, so it is! Had a chance at an A100 a few years ago, it was very reasonably priced. Unfortunately, space and money...

I don't care about the nicks myself. These are musical instruments, not furniture! (Oh, how I used to complain to my parents about putting picture frames and other crap on top of the piano! ) As long as they work!
