Testing 2 different Leslies with the Hammond XK5.
I used an old Leslie 251 converted to a 147 with slightly more power due to the extra transformer for the stationary channel being routed to the rotary part. It is connected with the XK5 thru a 11 pin to speak converter from Musifix.
The other leslie is a 3300P. I adjusted the speed and speed transition as close as possible to a Vintage Leslie. From the factory they have slower speed on both choral and tremolo, and a very slow transition. (mine did at least).
Not telling right away which one's are used on what track :-)
Recorded with a single microphone (AKG 414) sitting halfway the top and bottom speaker on +/_ 60 cm distance. I used this method to give an idea of the ambient level and balance between horn and bottom speaker.
I tried to mimic some impro's between takes, to have a fair comparison, I even used a looper for the second impro.  So Bis 1 and 2 are exactly the same, only thru an other leslie.
