As most of you know, I have three organs; a KeyB DUO Mk111 (my main and rehearsal ax), a Nord C2D (WAS my main gigging ax), and a Nord C1 (which I keep in my studio). Well now I have (or will have) FOUR!!! I just ordered a Viscount Legend EXP organ module from Kraft Music. Here's why. My KeyB (which I love) is in another room (my rehearsal room) which means it's a PITA to record it with the other instruments in my studio. I don't use the Nord C1 in my studio because it is so inferior to the KeyB sound-wise. Solution: use the C1 as a controller for the Legend EXP (same or better sound as the KeyB). The C1 already has a rotor switch and Expression pedal and waterfall keys and three midi outs for upper/lower/pedalboard on the EXP. I will essentially have a new dual manual Legend for the miserly sum of $795.00 in my studio. I think I'm a 'stable genius' . I always wanted the KeyB and SEVEN together for easy recording purposes, now I have it. Hog heaven.

Sad, but true Chas...

Reminds me of the old Schlitz beer commercial "you only go around once in life so ya gotta get all the gusto you can."

Have fun with your new toy.

Chas, enjoy evert bit of it. Happy is good, put all the negatives away.

Chas, I’m jealous, I am going out to by something.

Thanks guys, but practically speaking, I only have TWO in-use organs; the KeyB and the 'Frankenstein' (that will be) in my studio. The C2D is boxed up 'for sale' like it has been for the last two years since I stopped gigging. I've just neglected to put a 'for sale' ad anywhere (yeah Donny, I know...Hoarder ).

The EXP module is very compact, about 1 sq ft. so it will sit right on top of the C1. That way I can control it directly without having to program the C1. Pedalboard, rotary switch, and expression pedal CAN go directly into the module (or through midi from the C1 - very flexible). This works for me 'cause the module has drawbars and the C1 does not. As you can tell, I am very excited about getting the KeyB sound into my studio for easy recording.

I can relate to that.

Have a Blast Chas...
