Topic: Wurlitzer organs?

These would be a great suggestion. There are quite a few stops with these, so might be overwhelming for the novice, but a lot of amazing theatre music was made with these organs, and they are still widely used even today. Many were built in the early 1900s, with more modern designs in the 1950s and 1960s.

These would be a nice addition to the list of organs.

I gladly concur. Great idea.

I look forward to Wurlitzer as a nice addition sometime in the future. Now, anyway, there are quite a lot wonderful purely pipe organ stops and timbres for Organteq to model... and no doubt organ sound is really hard to work on, with 25 stops modeled in 3 years... so let's just hope Organteq is a toddler with a long and bright life ahead

Re: Wurlitzer organs?

Regarding Wulitzer organs - Well, quite a lot of amazing theatre music can be made already with the tools we have: Organteq, many different
Pianoteqsounds (and all those sounds that are not ”pianos” + using morphing, layering and combining all these sounds, sound fusion, using a DAW.
I gave it a little try, called it Theatre Organ OrgPiano. Using Organteq & Pianoteq ”fusion”. Most theatre organ musical arrangements are improvised or created by the organist, so did I here too, improvising in my first testdemo in this genre but I’m not an organist 
There is soooo much we can do with this layering/morphing and using a daw. I’m going more deep in these things in summer.

I wonder if a Hammond B3 could be developed as part of Organteq or as a joint Organteq-Pianoteq instrument.

I’ll give it a try. The sound on a tonewheel Hammond organ is varied through the manipulation of drawbars and there are so many of them, giving different ”sounds”. But…..

I think you can at least create one sound similar to some kind of B3. Would start with the tremulant in Organteq + some layers and mopphing together….(a secret so far   
I will return if I succeed with something. I’m sure it will take time.
Thank you Fleer, for giving me inspiration

Thank you! Much appreciated. I liked your experiment Condition, too. If interested in what things can be done with Organteq, (totally different music), I put two links here. I think you may like it

Re: Wurlitzer organs?

Thank you Fleer!

Wurlitzer, Hammond B3 or something ”hammond - like” sound. Well, I’m working on it…..Here is just a small taste of a sound that I am working on and ”developing”.
There will probably be a new kind of ”Organsound” this summer …I hope

The Wonderful Sounds of The Hammond X-66 Organ? Wow! Thank you,  LTECpiano, for the encouragement

I hope I’ll sooner or later can have a wonderful bit of sound/playing to make someone’s day. Which name for the sound - The Orghammondteq 1.0  ?    or.....?

Thank you budo, for your kindness and sorry for late reply.

Re: Wurlitzer organs?

i did like those two videos very much.  the music was excellent and i also really enjoyed the visuals.  at times i felt like i could have been watching a Tarkovsky film.

Thank you for your nice  comment. It gives me the strength to continue experimenting with film and sound, especially thanks for mentioning Tarkovsky ( he used his films as medium for themes like extra-terrestrial future, sci-fi art film, dream-like universe, unnamed place at an unknown time (like a bleak prophecy of the Chernobyl Disaster 1986,  Stalker 1979). I went to Tallinn some days after the Chernobyl 1986……. that was probably not very wise....

Well, I feel overwhelmed, I’m glad my music/video affects you so strongly. it gives me the strength to continue experimenting.

So, here is how far I have come with orgtq/Ptq fusion sound for the moment. I have listened much to the wonderful sounds of The Hammond X-66 Organ and got ideas.
Hope you like some of these 10  examples
