The best!

Just amazing!!! A couple of requests: sustain pedal triggers a bass note (Mojo has this, for bass thumping) and percussion volume. Willing to pay extra for that!!!

Problemas para grabar con GarageBand iOS

Spain

Es una pena, pero no se puede grabar con el sonido que quieres con GarageBand, cuando conectas con la App siempre sale la misma combinación y si intentas retroceder para cambiar el sonido se desconecta y no deja grabar.

Impressive organ!

It sounds amazing!! One of the best B3 emulation that I've tried on IOS. The ergonomy is very good and intuitive and the presets are very nice. But I personaly find the GUI not very appealing especialy the words ( in the organ page) that looks like pixelised or blurry. It's also quite heavy on CPU.

Grandes sonidos, buen control MIDI, pero falta control del Leslie mediante foot switch

jalomichu on

Spain

La calidad de los sonidos es excelente, imitando el de un Hammond B3 con una asombrosa fidelidad, y el control MIDI externo de los parámetros es muy bueno. Tengo un Hammond SK1, desde el que toco los sonidos del VB3m, y puedo mover drawbars, realizar split de teclado, cambiar los presets de sonidos, etc. Puedo controlar todo menos uno de los parámetros más importantes de un órgano Hammond: el cambio de velocidad del Leslie. Sería perfecto si en la próxima actualización de la app pudieran añadir control del cambio de la velocidad del rotor (rotary) del Leslie mediante un pedal de foot switch, para pasar de slow a fast accionándolo.

Fantastic almost the real thing

Been waiting for this emulation have used just about every vest and iOS clone and this is the boss is there any discount for upgrading to the granddaddy vib3 2 but if not I’ll make this app my fav till I can afford the next level. I do have a B2 with trek percussion but this is sooo good I hardly use it

Thank you for your work on this app!! I have had many Hammond organs and Leslie’s in my day and this satisfies me completely! The percussion is awesome. I haven’t yet tried double manuals and a volume pedal yet but that’s next. The Leslie effect is wonderful as well. If you love the Hammond experience don’t hesitate to get this! I can’t recommend this enough! It’s great to see someone who really cares deliver such a wonderful musical tool. Thank you Guido!

Superb Programming

Tedh222 on

Guido’s brilliant programming has truly captured the essence of the unique and rich sound of the Hammond tonewheel organ/ Leslie tube type rotary speaker. I used the original VB3 on my laptop for live performances on a regular basis, for years. He has since brought this remarkable sounding Hammond/Leslie combo to the IOS platform. Taking VB3m to the next level, Guido has now given us the option, for a very modest price, to add the very same Leslie emulator, to our IOS devices, as is included in the newest laptop version of VB3 ver 2. This new Leslie emulator gives you greater control over its entire operation. He has accomplished all of this in an extremely tiny footprint. Purchasing VB3m and Rotary speaker is a must have combo for all keyboard players! Thanks, Guido for your remarkable programming abilities

What would I do with this instrument?

TTMusic on

United States

I’m an old Hammond player. My back X-rays will prove it. How thrilling to get the sound I love in an iPad app with all the flexibility and history of the original instrument. I’ve been using the app for 5 months on live gigs. Tremendous work, Guido! Never a problem in live performances. I am so grateful! Thank you.
