I find you need new pcbs for B-200 - Which one do you need.
I have several PCB-s for older Hammonds on Stock and might be able to help you
out.
Best regards

Hi Everyone.
?
You might like to try the new ezboard forum! It
replaces the bravenet one that I have had for ages (which is still open). That
one was ok, but a bit messy and not very friendly. EZboard is better for a
'community' feel and everyone tends to get to know each other a little
better

If you have any suggestions, please let me
know.

Re: [hammond_zone] Jackie Mittoo
?
Jackie Mittoo's gone...bummer....gone but
not forgotten.
??? I've got a couple nice mix tapes that I'll
give a listen to when I'm doing a reggae
session with a traditional roots type band.
His studio tracks often had a lot of delay
( echo ) on them which kinda' took it toward
a " roller rink " sounding? thing, but his
playing was consistently great and very
melodic. A master of the Jamaican " bubble "...
that unique and wonderfully rythymic element
of early reggae music.? I even? find myself
dipping into that well in comping a hoppin' funk
groove from time to time. Nice off-beat shuffle
feel that really thickens the rythym section. You
can often see it have a dynamic effect on how a
soloist plays if you start bubblin' behind him.
? Anyway, Jackie was a real pioneer, as you
earlier said.
???? " Level deh vibes, mon....nuf respeck! "

Hey Guys,
??? Oh yeah, Jackie Mittoo is a wicked Hammond
guy. He sort of bridged reggae to more easy
listening during the "
rock-steady " era of Jamaican
music during the 60's as it was gradually
making
its transition to true reggae. He lives in England now,
last I
heard, as a lot of successful Jamaican artists
do. The lifestyle is much
more predictable and
not so prone to outbreaks of violence. Jamaica is
a
true third world nation and I've scared the hell out
of myself a few times
down there. Still love it though!
??? The recording studios
of Jamaica are fascinating!
Most have old equipment that is held together
with
duct tape run by guys that never finished 8th grade....
and they
get some of the most amazing sounds out
of that! I've been in quite a few,
Channel One in
Kingston being my favorite, and don't you know they
all
have a B-3 or C-3 sittin' in the corner?! Hammond
is universal and a vital
part of the reggae sound.

Re: [hammond_zone] Hammond XB3

It sounded better than my XB1, but then Jimmy Smith was

I love the XB3 too. I am lucky enough to have one
at work ( I have one of each Hammond Products for customer support) so I can
play it whenever I want. The aftertouch for Leslie control is something
else..great for gospel type music! You can really dive in there.
?
The first time I heard the XB3 and 122XB
Leslie?I knew it was something special..not just a B3 copy...in the last
but one Octave it has the same magic as the B3 and makes the hairs on the back
of my neck stand on end!!! The sad thing is, it has never really been marketed
in the UK, and so has never really been accepted here.
?
I loaned it to Joey De Francesco a while back, he
played it at the Jazz cafe in London. Despite one or two comments by a few in
the audience at the start, I was pleased with how well it performed (with the
help of the master), and although there are some differences in sound to a
tonewheel console... unless you did a head to head I really dont think anyone
would notice the difference?if the Hammond was out of view. Don't get me
wrong..I'm not saying its better than a tonewheel..or worse for that
matter......what it is, is a serious bit of Hammond Kit!

Dear Lars,
I play often the XB3 at the home of a
friend who happens to be the
Hammond-Suzuki dealer in Chile, Mrl Pablo
Gallyas. It is a wonderful
instrument. Better than any Hammond made by
the old Hammond Organ Corp.
after the b3. Of course it is not the same,
but certainly the closet one.
The bass sound is incredible, and the
Leslie 900 with iys 400 Watts of power

magnificent.

Re: [hammond_zone] Hammond tracks with reverb
Hello Wim!
?
Happy to hear you liked the music.?? The "Fender
Rhodes" on Kingston Hop is one of the rare occasions that we didn?t use the real
thing.? During composing we used a rhodes sound from rolands sc 880 that we
liked so much that we didn?t replace it with our real rhodes.?The effect is
part of the sound, some kind of phasing.
Elisabeth can?t remember the registrations used on Sarah?s
Prayer, but she is shure that no internal chorus / vibrato was used.? If
you want to know any other registrations in one of our tracks - please
ask.? We are glad if we can help.
?
Take care;

Hi Peter,

I heard the recording of Sarah's prayer and Kingston Hop. I
like it very much,?off course the Hammond sounds great on both
recordings, but the Fender Rhodes on Kingston Hop is really cool... which
effects does Elizabeth uses?on it? And which registrations?is she

Re: [hammond_zone] faulty hammond or leslie?
I doubt you will find any PCB's new for the B200.
Its possible you could get one second hand, but then it would be as old as
yours.
?
If its just the edge connectors you can get a
special abrasive tipped pen which takes all the crud off of the contacts on the
PCB. its a fiddly job but well worth it.
?
The worst thing you can do..(I know because I did
it once!) is to add new solder to the PCB edge connectors..it doesn't work..in
fact made things worse.

If you really love your B200 its possible to clean
the contacts on the PCB sockets too..but its very fiddly and very time
consuming...something your engineer might not want to tackle

I find you need new pcbs for B-200 - Which one do you need. I have several PCB-s for older Hammonds on Stock and might be able to help you out.
Best regards
Lars

Hi Matt.
If the problem was intermittent the first thing to check is dry solder
joint and/or poor connection. Its hard to say whether its from the organ or
the Leslie. If its the organ its most likely a PCB edge connector. Hammonds
from the late 70s early 80s suffered from this. Usually unplugging the PCB
and then re-fitting can cure it.
If its on the Leslie then you need to look carefully at the boards attached
to the rear plate. I have drawings at the workshop, I could scan and email
the relevant page if it will help.

Ray Colignon the Belgian Hammond B3 player
Guillermo Garcia-Huidobro
Dear B3 fans,
?
Could anyone tell me how to find old records for
sale by Ray Colignon.
He started as a piano player accompaning silent
movies.
Then he was part of that group of europeand that
brought jazz to the old continent.
Stephane Grappelli, the French violinist used to
play with another famous belgian of that time, the guitar player Django
Reinhardt.
?
Ray Colignon was very successful during the fifties
and sixties recording for Philips Long Plays that were recorded fully as medleys
20 minutes in one single shot, like George Feyer, the Hungarian pianist, and
other pot-pourries.
?
Many thanks,
?

Dear Lars,
I play often the XB3 at the home of a friend who happens to be the
Hammond-Suzuki dealer in Chile, Mrl Pablo Gallyas. It is a wonderful
instrument. Better than any Hammond made by the old Hammond Organ Corp.
after the b3. Of course it is not the same, but certainly the closet one.
The bass sound is incredible, and the Leslie 900 with iys 400 Watts of power
is magnificent.

You do not have all the edit-possibilities, and you even have some stupid ways of programming, but analyzing the sound it is actually better.
The XB-1 and big brother XK-2, does have a lot of usefull and nice
features, but the sound is different. Some like it better than the XB-2. Again a matter of taste.
If you put the keyboards through a leslie the result does become a lot
better. And there you are, for me the XK-2 on a Leslie 147 was an amazing experience.
As a back-saving Hammond these keyboard organs does it very well. Also the
double manual version - XB-5 - or just the top of the XB-3, has had great success through leslie. I have seen several XB-3's top only in flight design, that really did an amazing job.
I also do recall that Mr. McGriff played the XB3 on a 722 solid state
leslie at a festival, and everybody talked about the good sound from the old Hammond and tupe-leslie. They where very surpriced when they learned that the this was the new digital stuff and solid state leslie.
I believe that it is very much a matter of hooking up a good combination
and do the job on the registrations etc.
Best regards
Lars

I think the B4 sounds weak at best! I had a Farfisa that had more balls.
I don't mean to be a purist but lets get real. The closest thing I've heard
is the XB-2 (which I use for small gigs) and even that can readily be
identified as a clone. If anyone takes exception to my opinion, sound off, I can
take it. But lastly, a hammond clone is better than no hammond at all.

Subject: Re: [hammond_zone] The Ultimate
Sound
Hey all.
????????? I think for
everyone to see where I am coming from you have to
have heard the best
rock Hammond player ever born…Lee Michaels! He performed
with only a
drummer, played left handed bass, and was surrounded by a wall of
amps
pumping out his Leslie. He put out some dipsy tunes for commercial
radio,
but don’t judge him by that. If you can get a hold of his
live-in-studio
record (circa 1970 simply titled “Lee Michaels”) you will
hear someone who
has truly taken The B-3 as far as it can go, which by mortal
standards is
beyond comprehension. My point is, after experiencing this
record you will
never be able to play any clone without feeling you are in a
high chair,
or feeling like you are riding a Moped rather than a Harley. I
urge you
all to hunt down this album, crank it up, and get back to the forum
with
your thoughts.
