PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- Authentic tonewheel organ Sounds One of the most impressive features of the Viscount Legend Soul 261 is its incredibly accurate and lifelike sound made possible by Viscounts proprietary Tonewheel Modelling Technology (TMT). As opposed to conventional sampling methods TMT algorithmically generates and simulates a natural and authentic sound flawlessly reproducing the iconic tonewheel organ sound. The Legend Soul 261 doesnt just deliver one sound it includes several vintage transistor and pipe organ models allowing you to capture the essence of different eras and styles. This instruments keyclick sounds further contribute to its authenticity. Keyclick the distinctive "clicking" sound produced when a key is pressed and makes contact is an important characteristic of tonewheel organs. The Legend Soul 261 features enhanced keyclick simulation which adds depth and richness to the harmonic components and provides additional realism. This is another testament to Viscounts attention to detail and commitment to creating an instrument that truly emulates the sound and feel of playing a classic tonewheel organ. Revolutionary nine-contact keyboard The hallmark innovation in the Legend Soul 261 is its unique virtual 9-contact keyboard mechanism. This patent-pending feature is designed to digitally replicate the 9-contact mechanism of vintage tonewheel organs an important aspect of their distinctive sound. When a key is pressed on a traditional instrument nine electrical contacts are engaged in a staggered sequence creating the organs characteristic attack and sustain phases. This nine-point contact is crucial to the sound of the classic organ and the Legend Soul 261s 9-contact keyboard mechanism perfectly reproduces this offering an unmatched level of authenticity. With this innovative feature the Legend Soul 261 manages to capture the nuance and depth of classic tonewheel organs satisfying even the most discerning organists.

The user-friendly layout and comprehensive controls ensure a seamless and intuitive experience allowing musicians to focus on their performance and not on navigating through complex menus. Authentic effects and dynamic simulations An integral part of the Legend Soul 261s sound engine is its comprehensive set of effects. Its built-in effects include a vibrato/chorus modelled with meticulous attention to the behaviour and sound characteristics of actual electromechanical organs. This allows for a sound that is both deep and lush providing an inviting richness to the instrument&rsquo
- s overall sound. The vibrato/chorus can be used independently for both the upper and lower manuals or combined for a fuller effect. In addition to the vibrato/chorus the Legend Soul 261 also features an enhanced rotary simulation. This effect perfectly replicates the unique Doppler effect of a rotary speaker adding a dynamic quality to the instruments sound. The rotary speaker effect can be easily controlled using a convenient switch enabling musicians to adjust the effect to their taste.
