- Hammond B3 with Leslie, strings keyboard and synthesizer
- keyboard, all for $295 plus shipping? Almost!
- You can get that B3/Leslie sound and also have a synth and
- strings thrown in. What I am talking about is a used Yamaha SK15
- keyboard in mint condition. It has loads of slider controls
- to vary realtime parameters. None of the new-fangled complicated
- "one-button-does-all" digital nightmares. It has 3 sound
- sections:
-
- B3 ORGAN SECTION
- ----------------
- * 16' 8' 5 1/3' 4' & 2' drawbars (slider)
- * percussion drawbar(slider)
- * key click
- * Leslie off/on/slow/fast. This effect speeds up and slows down
- to simulate the speaker rotor. Effects units on the market
- today that have this capability cost more than this keyboard!
- * Ensemble/chorus effect on/off.
- * Sustain slider
-
- STRINGS SECTION
- ---------------
- * 16' & 8' sliders
- * Attack switch
- * Leslie, Ensemble/chorus and sustain same as for B3.
-
- SYNTHESIZER SECTION
- -------------------
- * 8 slider controls (Volume, Cut Off Freq, Resonance, EG Depth,
- Attack Time, Decay Time, Sustain Level, Release Time)
- * Leslie, Ensemble/chorus and sustain same as for B3.
-
- VIBRATO SECTION
- ---------------
- * This section effects all 3 sections. It has Delay, Speed and
- Depth slide controls.
-
- NOTES: The keyboard has 4 octaves with fullsize keys. All 3 sections
- can be used simultaneously. The size is 32" x 14" x 6".
