So definitely a plus for flexibility!īTW: this is the reason that TH-U is seeing a lot more usage from me currently than S-Gear, even though S-Gear is the better amp. I like the Arturia approach of giving lots of pedal options in their instruments - easy to create pretty crazy presets that would otherwise require a lot of separate plugs plus routing in Cantabile.
Was actually positively suprised by the B3 - the previous version was pretty much unusable the current one - whilst not up to the discriminating taste of our Hammond connoisseurs - will be “good enough” for live performance in a broad range of use cases. I finally took the plunge and updated to v7. Now if I start playing in a Classic Rock cover band again or one of my old bands does a reunion, I’ll need that Arp 2600 sound, the Continental Organ, Hohner Clav, etc … Man, I’d have killed for this set back in the day when I was carting around a Rhodes 88, a UNIVOX MultiMan, a UNIVOX Organizer thru a crappy Leslie 825, and whatever synth I could borrow and hoping the venue had a real B3.ĭifferent horses, different courses. It’s better than my Kurzweil 2500/2600s and beats my Gen I Receptor.
Just the Analog Lab may have enough classic sound for me. Diva or Zebra will be my go to synths, Blue3, M1 and a few of the Arturia plugins. The band I’m in now is all original material, so I’m not looking for that exact Floyd sound or whatever. The Arturia B3 with their piano in a layer is better than Korg M1 or B4 (or stupid NI Classic organ), but for that ballad B3 pad underneath a piano or something else, hmmmm OK, this giant pad layer is taxing my CPU, so why not? The rest of my band doesn’t understand why I don’t just get a cheap Casio keyboard so I don’t have to lug around the computer and stuff. I’ve really fallen for Blue3 with IK Leslie and Klanghelm IVGI. Now, there are certain things that will never be good enough even with vintage ears. I already contend with a mean horn section, too loud guitar, too loud drummer, busy percussion … I get lots of contention live. My first impression is a lot of this is “good enough” for live.
