Hi. Sounds like a live trio that just got together to jam something out in the pm before the club opens. Very cool. I hate recording in a DAW so this gives me an idea. Thanks.

I have a Leslie 16 .. Its a lot heavier than it looks.. it never leaves my house. Get a pedal lol.

I would refrain from using deoxit. Instead, use a fader lube which is designed for faders. Cheers.

On gawd! I swore "Ice on the Dune" would always be their masterpiece... but "Two Vines" and "Ask That God" ... are running neck & neck ! And "Changes" ain't even a song...that's a whole dam experience...like u put it on as 1 person and by the time it fades, you're a completely different person spiritually altogether.... Almost on the level of "witnessing the dawn" with PRINCE....Almost... I fkng love those 2! The Lord & The Emperor can do no wrong! They never disappoint...ever!

Hi Josh hoping you ok. I’m having mega problems with TH-cam and my MacBook like you having trouble with yours it seems. I’ve been on with this short piece on the 688, it’s took some sorting with one thing and another, it’s been a while and everything seems to be screwed up what with passwords on the net and such, what a job. Looks like I’m gonna have to have a massive clear out here to sort it out. Hope you get to hear this newbie I’ve just done Josh, best wishes to you my mate take care Jon. th-cam.com/video/tho3DkgEGr0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WrE49MXvdFFDrunI

“Letting go, letting go, letting go, letting go.” How this song breaks my heart is impossible to explain. I love it. I love the lyrics the beat, the chords everything entirely. These guys are saving music in real-time. I feel so much hope and joy when I hear this album it’s difficult to not cry. Thank you!!!!🙏

The Kite String Goes Pop is the greatest album 😂

Use 60 minutes tape instead of 120. 120 is the worst. Unless that is the goal

Sounds so good even on my iPhone. I have a Hammond L102 would love to get a real Leslie for it but I would need to get a kit for the organ for connection to the Leslie. Where can I buy a kit?

Hi Josh I’m with you on this 100% The times I’ve dismantled my equipment and either tried another method or to make more room or other I cannot tell you, so please don’t feel alone. All this messing is not what we want, it’s a great big distraction in what we’re striving to achieve. One of my main issues right now is ROOM. I’ve had to move into a very small room, initially my thoughts were it will never ever work, I’m going to have to downsize so much which I’ve had to. Hence where the 688 comes in somewhat. At least all integrated and no mixer board needed. The main problem was I couldn’t see life without drums. Whether electronic or acoustic, not much less foot print in either really only the kick. So I’ve settled for a very small Yamaha custom hip 4 piece, still taken much of my space but just about manage. I’ve had a few Roland electro kit the last being TDK 17 but I was picky with it, ghost notes and such just not doing it compared to natural hits. I think maybe when your talking the TDK 50 range, then your getting up there with more perfection. It is the perfection that we are seeking right? I think I speak for you on this so much also. One of my dilemmas is working my analog gear along with ITB, routing and stuff. I’ve tried to get things patched so there’s never any re patching of cables, but no such luck. Always re patching this and that. Unless of coarse we live entirely ITB which that isn’t our goal. I agree so much all of this side tracks us from getting things done. Another massive issue for me is what to track first? Or do I track to a click or not. I have a very good ear but, if guitar or keys go down first there can be issues with laying drums down just that split second or two. Try laying drums down first, you just don’t know where you are. So some accompaniment most certainly has to be tracked first, question being click or no click? There’s some of my barriers Josh for discussion 👍

You’re very welcome Josh, it’s nice to know about the history of your songs. I went to see Barclay James Harvest at Sheffield UK when I was around 20yrs old early 70’s, they were on with Gilbert O Sullivan, they were awesome. Oh how I wish I could go back to those magical times and sounds. The members of the band all came from very near to my partner’s place of birth “Lancashire UK” Yes Hymn would be great to cover. I ceased playing live some 10 years ago Josh. I made my living from my music for many years, loved and lived it until I couldn’t keep it up anymore with poor health, but have great memories of many gig’s and venues throughout the UK. The live scene has pretty much gone over here to what it was in the 70’s 80’s 90’s. But hey ho… it most certainly doesn’t stop me from grasping at my original stuff Josh. I’ve been seriously writing originals since 1995 and have quite some stored away. I’ll have to dig some out and let you hear Josh. My mixes aren’t to my today’s standard obviously, but I’m still very fond of them. My philosophy in writing is to“ Always be content with my work, but to never be totally satisfied” That way we’ll always aim higher and want that little bit better next time, kinda makes sense and works for me buddy 😁😁👍👍

I would love to have a real leslie for my Hammond SKX Pro, but for now I don't really need one because the leslie sim on that is super nice. You can go in and tweak a lot. You can change the mic positions and distances, and choose between a few different Leslie cabs. I was blown away with how in depth their newest built in simulator was. If I do end up getting a leslie, I'm probably going to just get a 2101 Mk.2 since I'm already running out if space in my home studio. The compactness of that unit is nice for lugging to gigs I imagine. I haven't heard much about how good they sound though.

Much appreciated Jon, this song is a kind of ballad I had nagging at me for some time to sit and write and I’m glad it’s finally out of me to be honest. 😂 I’m very glad to know it has brought about a good vibe as well. Barclay James Harvest is one of my favourite groups from the 70’s and I always marvel when listening to the absolute stellar production on their albums. Particularly when listening to “Hymn” from the Down to Earth album or “Ra” from Octoberon album. All their songs are excellent. I’d actually like to cover one of the two just for fun some day. Thank you so much for the kind words Jon and I am very much looking forward to more of your music.

Hi Josh hope you ok buddy Jon here again. Sorry I lost you on the live feed yesterday, I was loving it listening to you and your wonderful music. I’ve just had yet another listen don’t know how many listens now of this wonderful put together piece WUNDOM feed the lions. Oh how I love this so much. I don’t know where your ideas come from but embrace them my friend you are gifted. Your accompaniments and great melodies really are something, there so much up my street. Remind of a band called “ Barkley James Harvest” from the 70’s. Love your video to it also Josh, you show it how it is and that ticks every box with your creativity. Take care Josh for now and will watch out for you doing another live stream TH-cam Your mate Jon from the UK.

The true Leslie according to the Doppler effect you hear frequency, amplitude and phase modulation !In other words pitch, volume and waveform modulation all at the same time! I used to do the maths behind it in my younger days! 79 years old now, Fraser

Wow, kudos to you for some outstanding performance skills there on multiple instruments. I really enjoyed that.

I hear you so much with the dilemma with which and what way to initiate our ideas, to get thing’s started and not loose our musical ideas. Your so right in saying “feeling like wasting our time in doodling away and maybe not capturing important parts that could be used” My thoughts are…as a lone writer with no other input from third parties, this is where, well, my brick wall can show its ugly head from time to time. I love to be self contained solo and being totally in charge like yourself I guess. I think by this token our heads become one big compromise and we can become limited in hitting this so called brick wall, almost confused wondering which way to go. 70yrs old here and love my musical creativity as much the day it all started at the tender age of 13 yrs old. However as we add years on our shoulders, our thoughts seem to become a little more difficult to process and untangle, this can be a hiccup. After all, you are doing a mighty fine job in all what I hear with all your music and your intentions. I can tell your writings, mixes, mastered pieces come from within yourself so original, it is this what is the most importance. Whatever it takes, which ever way it takes, and I guess however long it takes, as long as the finished piece suits your needs, your goal has been achieved. My method of writing may sound very odd to you but I seem to have ok results. That is to have no other influences at all, not wanting my sounds to be like some others. This way my originality will shine through and you will hear one’s self more purely and not be a copycat, it makes big sense. I better end my WAFFLE here and further wish you everything in your superb work Josh John from UK 👍👍

So beautiful my friend, real music being played and recorded the real way to capture all tonal frequencies unlike digital. I love your playing, you have just earnt a new subscriber, here’s me hanging around with you for sure 😁😁👍👍

G'day from Australia 🦘🐨 New Subscriber 👍 sending support 👍

Nice! Reminds me of Pink Floyd. :D I actually sold my Hammond L-122 after FINALLY having found a PERFECT sampled Hammond L-102 (essentially the same organ). I wanted to get rid of my Hammond ten years ago, but the only plugin I could find was a free L-122 plugin and even though I'm sure it's useful to someone, it didn't sound like an actual L-122 at all. Last year, I found a library someone made and it's for free, so I downloaded it, played a chord on my keyboard controller and my jaw dropped onto the floor, haha. "There it is!!" So, I got rid of that massive and heavy machine but kept the Leslie. Even though IK Multimedia's Leslie's damn good, it's still lacking something in my opinion, so what I do now is: I send the L-102 plugin to my Leslie and record it back into my DAW. It's just perfect. :D Oh, I also kept the L-122's spring reverb which someone converted into a little reverb box for me. The plugin does have reverb in built but once again, a digital spring reverb doesn't quite cut it (yet!) and as far as I'm concerned, it's a huge part of the overall Hammond sound as well. The sample library itself...... I can't hear any difference between my (ex)organ and the sampled L-102. He sampled everything. Every drawbar, the percussion, the bass pedals. I think it's on Pianobook.

BEAUTIFUL !!! I love it !

Was it you purposeful intent to make this video in the dark?

The true sound of a Leslie can only be heard by mic'ing the space that the Leslie is speaking into. The effect is partly doppler effect and partly a product of the Leslie interacting with the physical space - much like the true sound of a pipe organ.

Real Leslie speaking into a real physical space is the best.

coming to deal wit you

im warning you pricec e of crap leave or we come for you

I’ve used a Sharma 2000 Leslie and then over the years at different times two valve (tube) 145’s and a 147. I now use a solid state silent switch for a quiet switching as some Leslie are noisy. On solid state vs valve…..listen to Three Dog Night’s organ sound to hear a difference. ( They use solid state Leslie 900 ).

😍😍😍😍

This is like a 15 min. Commercial 😂😂😂…. Now I want one 😊😊😊

I use a Hammond XK-1c w/a Leslie 2101mk2 that’s 125 watts w/a real rotating horn. The 31H is my Leslie simulation w/the distortion set at 50% on the organ.

I love my Neo Ventilator, but nothing compares to being in a room with a real Leslie. Even a sim in stereo, as cool as it is, doesn’t envelop you like a real Leslie.

Can’t beat a real Leslie. I ran an 815 for years. I now have a neo vent 2 and a Lester K. The Neo vent is very close sounding to a Leslie. I prefer a real Leslie. The sound is three dimensional and the sound is thrown out around the room. My 815 was very powerful. It’s only down side was it was very heavy. Simulators are two dimensional sound and in very large clubs we perform at times the simulator is very close sounding to a miked Leslie. Particularly the Neo vent 2. On another subject it is like comparing a real tape echo to digital echoes. I own a few vintage tape echoes and their analogue sound cannot be beaten. On stage I use a Danelectro reel echo which isn’t tape but analogue. It is the closest sounding none tape echo to a real tape echo that I have heard. I own a few digital echoes including Roland Boss but they mainly stay in storage. Brilliant video by the way.

12:19 to 12:24 is just so good. I wonder it is from a song or just an improv.

Good luck finding one.

💜💛

how about the weight of this guitar? about how many kilograms? thx

7 all day

Assalomalekum❤

wow ! that was my very first guitar and i still play it today , i fkn love it <3

I’m a guitar player. I’d love to take a 122 to a gig. Try taking a Leslie to a gig.😳😳😳😳🥺🥺🥺🥺😪😪😪😪 The Neo Vent ll, is the best sim pedal made. I use a NUX Roctary.. it’s better than all other Leslie pedals. I really like your sound and what you’ve chosen to play.

The 900 series are the worst Leslies

Hi can you teach me guitar again please

Listening here guys🎉

Your comment about tonewoods is interesting ….. they are an all-laminate instrument. Basically, a heavy duty, indestructible plywood box - which is why they were the “weapon of choice” for many touring musicians back in the day, and why so many still survive ! Don’t get me wrong … I have one of that vintage - branded as “ Eston” for the Australian market - and love it.

it really is time for a Ventilator 3!

Bad photography unfortunately distracts

Parting out 63 or 64 Leslie rotary and other odds and ends. Anyone interested?

post more music soon. waiting for your next live streaming.
