There’s
nothing
quite
like
the
sound
of
the
classic
Hammond™
B
‐
3
tone
wheel
organ,
especially
when
played
through
a
Leslie™
rotating
speaker
system.
We’ve
done
extensive
testing
and
analysis
with
several
tone
wheel
organs,
and
created
our
own
models
to
emulate
the
unique
tone
wheel
sound.
We
even
took
into
account
the
way
that
older
organs
start
to
sound
different
(and
arguably
better)
as
their
capacitors
begin
to
leak—and
we
included
a
parameter
that
lets
you
vary
the
amount
of
grunge
(leakage)
in
your
sound.
KB3
programs
use
oscillators
to
emulate
the
tone
wheel
sound.
Each
oscillator
operates
independently,
and
has
its
own
pitch
and
amplitude
control.
You
can
control
how
many
oscillators
are
used
for
a
KB3
program.
There
are
two
oscillators
per
voice,
for
a
total
of
256.
You
can
use
up
to
91
of
them
in
a
KB3
program
(the
92nd
is
reserved
to
produce
key
click).
Because
the
oscillators
start
running
as
soon
as
you
select
a
KB3
program,
there
are
always
voices
available—unlike
VAST
programs,
which
start
“stealing”
notes
when
you
reach
the
polyphony
limit.
The
oscillators—we’ll
call
them
tone
wheels
from
here
on—are
divided
into
an
upper
and
lower
group.
The
upper
tone
wheels
use
the
samples
in
the
PC3K’s
keymaps
to
generate
sound,
while
the
lower
tone
wheels
use
sine
waves.
You
can
change
the
keymap
of
a
KB3
program’s
upper
tone
wheels
to
produce
a
large
array
of
sounds.
By
changing
the
keymap
from
sine
to
a
saw
wave
it
is
possible
to
emulate
the
sound
of
classic
combo
organs
like
the
Vox™
and
Farfisa™
models.
KB3 Mode
KB3
programs
are
different
enough
from
VAST
programs
that
we
use
the
term
KB3
mode
to
describe
what’s
going
on
when
you
play
a
KB3
program.
Whenever
you
play
a
KB3
program,
you
are
in
KB3
mode.
The
blue
LED
in
the
KB3
button
will
light
when
the
current
program
is
a
KB3
program.
If
you
want
to
create
your
own
KB3
program,
start
by
editing
an
existing
KB3
program.
You
can
play
KB3
programs
only
on
a
single
channel
at
a
time.
