Hello, first thank you keeping this group going!
I have a Hammond 820 hybrid organ from the ‘80s. The entire internal Leslie speaker is gone and a second regular speaker was put in it's place It's still in playing condition thanks to an ingenious area technician.
?
Some parts need to be replaced, am I'm wondering if anyone knows where to get parts for the Hammond 820? The place my technician knew of is gone.
Top on the list for parts I'm looking for are?the preset pistons. Though they work, they are tricky to turn on, requiring a gentle slow press, sometimes several,? which make them impractical for changes during a piece other than punching them off.? They're listed in the Service Manual as:
Piston Switch Assembly?008–055304
It would also be good to have a back up swell pedal, I hear once they wear out there's no fixing them.? And this one already is loose and flies fully open or closed at the slightest touch of the foot.
Expression Pedal?
123–000101
The speaker buttons?look very worn, I don't know if the echo button works (which I assume is for the external Leslie output), but hopefully I'll it in the future.
Main Echo Switch Assembly?
008–056736
An even bigger long shot, I know, is finding the external Leslie Speaker for it.? The 820?apparently works with only one specific model,?which I think is the?Leslie Cabinet 716. []
Any suggestions or leads would be very greatly appreciated!
thanks everyone, John

XB-1 & XM-1 sysex file compatibility
Hello,
?
I've got a fully programmed Hammond XB-1, and want to copy the patches onto an XM-1 module for backup.
?
Is there any way to copy sysex, even by editing sections of the files (e.g. in text editor), or do I have to do it all manually (a long job!)?
?
Piers.

Hammond/piano players wanted in London, UK
Dear all, I am running a study for which I need a number of professional or semi-professional keyboard players.
If you (or any of your friends!): - are willing to spend 90 minutes doing my study, and get paid 30? for your time - are based in or around London (or visiting in the next couple of months)? - have experience playing Hammond organ and/or piano at a professional or semi-professional level - can improvise on a simple Jazz tune, reading the score off a Real Book
Then please email me at g.moro@... indicating * details of your keyboard-playing experience, including if you have played Hammond organ, and/or Hammond clones before. * your availability
The study will take place at Queen Mary, University of London (E1 4NS). Please forward to anyone who may be interested.
Thanks, Giulio

Re: H111, cable MYSTERY........
Makes sense. Common cable assemblies across similar models helps reduce manufacturing costs and speed up production to for adhoc incoming orders.

Re: H111, cable MYSTERY........
Apparently that connector and wire harness was in all the models but only used on the 300 series to connect the rhythm section, as that is the only difference between the 100 and 300 series. Probably easier for the factory. ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

Re: H111, cable MYSTERY........
Didn't some H-series organs have a "Rhythm II" fitted? Could it
be the connector for this? Where is this connector in the organ?
Top, bottom, right or left? If it was for a rhythm unit mounted in
the top of the organ, it would be at the top.

Re: H100 - One Lazy Drawbar
Kudos to Chris Clifton - followed his clear instructions - studied the schematic, ?following the (Orange / 8’ tone wiring, ?identified the culprit contact, applied gentle pressure to the offending contact until signal enabled. ?Complete, 44 drawbar rehab 100% complete.
So far in this H111 rehab project…. Reading light repair - stuck “on” - replaced .022mfd cap in parallel with on/off switch. Homemade “O” Ring drive belts for vibrato can scanners - vibrato live an well. Oiled vibrato can scanner bearings - rattle sound gone. total drawbar(s) rehab.
狈别虫迟… Percussion section. All work fine as second voice. Touch control stop - no effect.? Reiteration non existent. Cymbals/Brush very low volume. All but the two upper “D” keys trigger selected percussion stop.
Solutions? Percussion preamp (semiconductor type) caps? Upper Manual B Preset contacts?
Suggestions welcome and much appreciated.
Thanks Norm

Sometimes the moving contact leaves in the switches develop a
slight bend which prevents them making a proper contact. A little
gentle bending using the tip of a small screwdriver is sometimes
the answer, I stress gentle, you don't want to sharply bend the
contacts and make things worse. A bit of study of the schematic
and following the actual wiring to identify the culprit contact is
worthwhile.

The "B" upper manual drawbar signals go
through the percussion switches before going to the
drawbars. This is so that the harmonics needed for the
various percussion voices can be tapped off. If I
recall, when a percussion voice is selected, the
harmonics for that voice are routed through part of
the percussion circuit before being returned to the
drawbars. When the percussion tabs are up switch
contacts in the percussion switches direct the tones
directly to the drawbars. What I suspect is happening
here is that a bad contact or contacts in the
percussion switches is preventing the 8' signal
reaching the drawbar.

9 Pin Leslie Cable Plugs?
I need three 9 pin male and one 9 pin female Amphenol octal connectors to repair some broken leslie cables. Mainly the connectors themselves with or without the caps. I'd take more to have spares on hand. Please let me know if someone has a reasonabllly priced source. Thanks!
