Hey everyone,

There’s no doubt that there are great emulations out there (even free ones) but I think the strong suit of EZ and what Sjaak refers too is the “player” section and midi packs, as it is a great tool for producers and songwriters that don’t play keys. A Hammond organ is in the top 5 instrument that you will find in any pop/rock production as it fills the space really well and it is so versatile.

It is really curious to me the Toontrack hasn’t jump in this territory yet, it must be something referred to the way they sample stuff that makes the B3 more complicated than the rest. I mean, they have a Pipe Organ emulation!, I don’t see how in any case somebody will use that more than a Hammond organ. This guys are based on Sweden I believe, maybe there is a big scene for Pipe Organs over there? 😛

Anyways I would jump into any B3 emulation Toontrack would make right away, as I currently using the piano one to lay down some chord pads and then edit/change the midi files with the B3 Protools plugin.

PS1: if you type ‘Hammond” on the Toontrack search, it gets back with tons of “When does TT planning to release a B3?” post of all sorts.

PS2: it seems to be that TT has a big market among Metal folks, which would explain the Pipe Organ emu, as those folks really love those medieval stuff 😉
