Interesting point about the Chorus-y sound of the Lester K in slow, I always heard it that in the videos (never seen one in person), but never saw no one mention it. Does it bother you, making it less realistic? Does the fast speed sound bad in your opinion?
Thanks for your feedback. I’ve noticed that instantly especially when comparing with the Neo Ventilator that has a totally other character. But I actually love the sound of the Lester, its warmth, crunch and stereo width, both in slow and fast mode. It gives the Nord organ the realism and organic tone it lacks out of the box. What I "dislike" is that there is no separate remote control and that there are only few parameters to adjust.
Yes, the Ventilator 1 is the older, first generation. According to many users both generations sound identical, but the possibilities to adjust the sound are better with the Vent 2.
Hi, great song (although I just listened to it for the first time just now)! On what platform/format do you want to do the collab? Please contact me via Facebook or PM.
No, I’ve chosen the normal setting und order to have kind of a default basic sound. I found it impressive how "flat" and "unusable" the initial B3 sound of the Nord is (with no further tweaking), and how it gets instantly alive with the Lester. A quantum leap. In this comparison the Ventilator rather sounds muffled.
It’s strange , i have tested a lot but lately found that the organ in NS4 is really good in a live context , i have tested with GSi Vb3 II and other plugins and I prefer now the NS4 , I pass it through effect rack in Logic Pro for iPad via Apogge desktop and use the croma glow plugin , it can create wonders in uplifting the sound to fit the band , in the beginning i was disappointed with the organ engine in NS4 but not anymore , its an engine that has proven its worth over a long time span and I am glad they not rush out new updates on it cause it works on pa and monitor systems 😊
@@niellseen You’re right, playing in a band context will be no problem. But I’m using the Stage only in the home studio for recording, and there the internal sim is really unrealistic regarding stereo width (reverb is mono!) and overall tone (cold, nasal, harsh, narrow). It’s possible to tweak it and together with an additional external reverb it is quite OK. But the experience that I had by just using the Lester K without any adjustments to the organ sound (right out of the box) , was mind blowing.
@@Spektralfarben-Music i Use the GSi rotary plugin when recording , it sounds fantastic , the iOS version unfortunately doesn’t have midi learn but on the os version in Logic/mainstage i can set the rotary fast slow to the sustain pedal as I prefer , the Logic vintage rotary also sounds super , i think the NS4 sounds fantastic when recording in as audio , i can drop a lot of my plugins 😊

PS: unfortunately I don’t have a real Leslie to compare with.
Thanks for the comparison! I have a Ventilator II coming soon, but I guess the Ventilator I is the older model, isn't it?

Hello Alf.We are doing a collaboration for Nightwish "Come cover me". Do you want to play the keyboard parts?
Hi, great song (although I just listened to it for the first time just now)! On what platform/format do you want to do the collab? Please contact me via Facebook or PM.
@@Spektralfarben-Music I send you a message on Facebook
interesting comparison...
is this the "close mic" simulation in the NS?

@@Spektralfarben-Music yes, agree 👍
the "close" sim is more effective but, within a few seconds, it becomes boring to me...
