Ken Griffin (Instruments He Played) The actual synchronous motor of the Hammond organ is known as a reluctance synchronous motor, and as far as we can determine, it was developed by Hammond for his electric clocks. The reluctance synchronous motor of the Hammond organ is considerably bigger than that of a clock, and yet it is also mechanically and electrically one of the very simplest electric motors in existence. Nevertheless, the Hammond organ's means of creating and managing the phase shifts and developing the resulting vibrato are considerably different, more complex, and musically much better than those obtainable from the Wurlitzer system, which just splits the signal into two signals that are 90 degrees out of phase and gates them selectively. theatreorgans.com /hammond/keng/kenhtml/HammondEricb.htm   (6176 words)

Vintage Hammond Tonewheel and Tube Organs The primary differences between the M-100 and the console organs (B-2, C-2, A-100, etc.) is that manuals and pedal sections are shorter. To explain: If you look at a B3, or any tone wheel organ from a technological perspective, these are built on the principle of additive synthesis; which means: fundamentals are generated and then combined to generate harmonics, which is acomplished by the mixing by drawbars. The tones of the chord organ, in contrary, are generated by highly unstable tube oscillators - 3 systems genrating sound, that is somewhat out of tune, hence a completely different sounding instrument. www.ultraelectronicactive.com /ClassicTubeOrgans.html   (2633 words)

A Look At The Theatre Organs Of New Zealand The organ was installed in the school’s assembly hall where it became a feature of the music department and played for various school functions for many years. The console was situated to the left of the proscenium on a turntable lift. The console was mounted on a so-called “worm-drive” turntable lift that is believed to be one of the highest organ lifts in the entire world. www.rjeproductions.com /NZArticle.shtml   (3518 words)

Electronic organ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The most revolutionary difference in the Hammond, however, was its huge number of tonewheel settings, achieved by manipulating a system of drawbars located near the manuals. On the other end of the spectrum were larger and more expensive home models, known as “console organs” because they resembled pipe organ consoles. Many hobbyists have used these tools to assemble home-built organs that can rival or exceed the sound quality of commercially built digital organs at a fraction of the cost. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Electronic_organ   (3029 words)
