Hi All!
I have no words... this thing is amazing!




Viscount DB5, for me the best Hammond clone out there.
Do you like it?! Very Happy


Oh.. the other toys you see over it are not mine.. just ignore them, the *almost* real thing is the beast with the whites&blacks.

Man, if that's what you call a toy, I'd love to see what you'd call a professional instrument Wink Laughing

Here's mine. A Korg CX-3 with a DX-7 jammed up underneath as close together as I could get them. Add a Yamaha FC-7 volume pedal... and "poor man's B3"... well, not so poor, that CX-3 was probably my most expensive piece of gear.



It's for sale if you're near Toronto. Sad (No shipping! Don't even ask.)

The Viscount does look cool.

Boy, not much info on their site about that model. http://www.viscount.it/product.asp?idcat1=-250368922&idprodo tto=1928954479

Can you tell us anything about it? Any chance of an audio sample? Smile Why do you consider it the best of the clones? How's it compare to the Korgs and Rolands?

Download this sample:

You can hear 4 different hardware clones.

(in alphabetical order)
Creamware B4000 ASB
Roland VK-8m
Viscount DB3m
Viscount DB5

Guess which one is the DB5 HiHi

The price? I've paid it 2000 euros new, complete with original stand. You can't find it below 2100 without stand. If you want one, let me know Wink

I don't know which one's the Viscount but I'm guessing #3 is the Roland.

Send me a MIDI of your clip and I'll do a CX-3 demo for you if you'd like to add it to the clip. Smile

ZioKiller are you the developer of Mr. Ray, etc??? Love (Stop giving your plugs away for free, they're too good! Laughing )

Cheers, and congrats on having such a big organ! Wink

Hey Ziokiller was that price with the footpedals also? I've been trying to get one of these but I'm in the US and I've only found one dealer.

No, no footpedals.
The normal retail price for the organ only is about 2100 euros, add another 450 for the stand. I got it all for 2000 directly from the factory (it's made in Italy) thanks to a friend of mine who has a special price for it. Are you located in the US?? If you can take care of the shipping by Fedex or UPS I can see what I can do to let you have one. Email me if you're interested.

Well it's a pleasure to meet you Zio. I'm a great admirer of your work. Smile

I'll have a go at that mid file on the CX-3 next time I get out of this chair for more than 30 seconds. Thanks. Wink
