As a mere guitar player who is interested in the organ, this is the first time I have ever heard someone clearly explain the function of drawbars. Nice video.
Thanks so much for the explanation of how an organ works. I've been a keyboard player for decades and an now just thinking about diving into the organ world. With the Crumar Mojo 61 in fact. Cheers
Extremely thoughtful, thorough and honest review. Very informative. You explained and demonstrated the drawbars clearly. You are a terrific player and very insightful from a practical standpoint. Thank you! 👏👏👏
great vid. What's the name of the tune at the 6:12 mark? I love that tune and would love to learn it, but cant remember the name to search for it. Any help would be appreciated.
I often use the built in rotary sim. It’s good. Vent is better, thicker, broader. Since I play guitar and other synths, I love using the Vent on those too.
To turn off the Leslie on the Crumar Mojo 61 for use with the Neo Ventilator, is it good enough to just push the Run/stop button? Or is there a way to completely turn it off on the mojo?
okay. i think to completely turn off the leslie sim we'd have to use the browser app editor. (though for some reason i couldn't get it going last night.) that said, i had good results completely braking the leslie, and turning the drive to off.
that's tricky. i liked the sound of the Mojo 61 better when i bought it, but it's possible it's less robust for touring/gigging than the hammond. i suppose it'll depend on your use(s).
I’ve got a mini vent that if I’m honest I only use in the studio. The vent just sounds better, mostly in the saturation, than the built in. But it’s a slight difference on stage, in an amp. I also use a “tall and fat” pedal for saturation in front of the vent. Again mostly in the studio. This may be because I’m always trying to scale down my pedal set up
I use a couple of systems. 1.) stereo Bose S1 s with a sub or 2.) center point stereo keyboard amp with or without sub. Recently I’ve been using in-ears and routing to the front of house.

it's a mystery...thanks.

"use me" the great bill withers. check out lachy doley's version.... (whammy clav) ua-cam.com/video/eAKoTYFZH6Y/v-deo.html
@@ImpliedMusic Thank you so much!
Why do you need a Neo Vent? Doesn’t the Mojo organ have a built in Rotary affect? How is the built in rotary affect?

I owned the original neo ventilator and loved it and lost it
Is the second iteration of it the same - better ???

There’s a way. The mojo is at my drummer s studio, but I’ll be there tomorrow and figure it out…👊🏼

Just been offered a good price for my Hammond XK1-C, I’ve never been blown away by its sound… thinking of the Mojo to replace it.. or a bad idea?

@@ImpliedMusic yeah I’m touring with it
Good idea. I have flown my Mojo 61 a number of times, no problems. In Gator case exactly 50 lbs. not to mention the sound and action are great.
Which differences between leslie and overdrive on the crumar than the ones on the vent?

Thanks for the overview. Super helpful, I’ve been looking at the Mojo 61 for a while, what kind of system are you running sound through? PA? Ampflier?

Good job but how about woolly bully watch it now😮
Too bad there’s not a separate organ output so you can dedicate the organ section to the mini vent
agreed. if i'm honest though, i RARELY use the other voices. i'm using the mojo in a two keyboard set up now, and it's really just B3 cloning.
what volume pedal are you using?
moog CC pedal. it's the best i've found, after trying a few.
I like it a lot, but I heard that it causes a lot of problems
I’ve had to send mine in for service, yes. Mine is from its first year. Perhaps they are better now. Also, it’s been going great for some years now.
