 The Recording of 'Terre Inconnue'
The Farfisa VIP 500 organ is a two-manual electronic organ built probably in the late 1960's or early 1970's.
All of these characteristics combine to give the Farfisa VIP 500 a truly unique sound, underscoring the fact that it is one of the last electronic keyboards to have a strongly individual personality.
My Farfisa got that way by some musician playing the hell out of it, so my feeling was this: compose and perform a piece written specifically for its beauty and allow for its drawbacks due to age.

I own a Farfisa VIP 255 which I picked up for $250 a few months ago at a music store that was going out of business in Newark NJ of all places.
The thing was sitting in the store since it was brand new and just never sold, and a band I had been working with just paid me some money they owed me so I had two hundred in cash burning a hole in my pocket.
I have a red farfisa combo compact organ just like the one Smashmouth had in their "Walking on the Sun" video.

Farfisa Mini Compact - through a shitty Traynor bass head (that serious needs to be replaced, but works for the time being) that is run into a Leslie speaker model 18 - I have also been playing around with running my organ through a fuzz pedal.
Last night we tried to practice with a friends Farfisa, cause the ARP we had been borrowing was repossessed temporarily.
The vibrato on the farfisa is much more subtle than the vox, which to my ear is much stronger.

 New Visions for Farfisa
Although "Sonata for Solo Organ" used this as the opening to one of the movements, it is such an essential part of what makes a Farfisa a Farfisa that it really deserved a movement of its own.
The Sonata was written in tribute to the Farfisa Organ, an instrument which has not been given its due as a precursor to the modern electronic keyboards of today, and whose rhythmic and timbral possibilities have never been completely explored.
It is constructed around a matrix of stops and chord patterns, which allows enough freedom for the performer to place his/her stamp of individuality on the piece.

 Farfisa Organ
Having never used or owned one, I know little about the Farfisa organ other than to say that they represented a new breed of budget organs - compact and portable and based on a simple 'transistor' technology in the '60s.
They were cheap and cheesy and sonically they were no match for the mighty Hammond tonewheel organs but they did have a character all their own that was an important part of the 'surf' and 'beatnik' music of the 60s.
In the dim and distant past when I used to have bands in to record at the studio, someone came in with a Farfisa organ (make and model unknown *) and I grabbed a single sample off it on my S3000 - I have absolutely no recollection of the settings involved....

That's because square waves are used as "raw material" everywhere in the organ (unlike the Farfisa Compact organs, which used an assymmetrical pulse wave).
And I found the noise is louder when the Upper Manual Flutes volume is increased on the output section slider.
So the main suspect was the "Flute Preamp" - that is the summing amp for all UM flute drawbars, whose output is then fed into the output mixer ("Output Preamp" in Farfisa speak).

 IEEEVM: The Sound of the 60s: The Vox and Farfisa
The first transistorized organs were built for home entertainment, and although rockers sometimes brought them on stage, they were not really made to withstand the inevitable rough handling of life on the road.
The Farfisa organ, introduced in 1965, was even less expensive and more compact—in fact, the top-selling Farfisa of the late ‘60s was called the Combo Compact.
By the end of the decade there were dozens of different brands of “combo” organs on the market, many featuring attractively styled, brightly colored plastic cases.
