The Viscount Legend Live 61-Key Portable Vintage-Style Organ is a luxury instrument, designed in Italy to recreate the vintage sound of tonewheel organs, such as the Hammond organ. The Legend uses the latest modelling technology to deliver an authentic musical experience, whilst the build quality and layout of the organ will leave those familiar with vintage instruments feeling instantly at home.
The Legend perfectly captures the look and feel of the vintage era by leaving all the modern technology working under the hood – no LCD screens or touch pads can be seen anywhere on the organ itself. The rotary and amplifier simulation algorithms have been newly designed to be even more accurate on the Legend organs. Two full sets of nine drawbars are included for each of the two keyboards, alongside two pedal drawbars. Further controls (sustain, delay, keyclick and so on) can be found to the immediate left of the upper keyboard – the lower keyboard has a panel to its left with reverb, tonewheel and pedal options, among others. The reverbs (spring and hall) are included along with effects such as vibrato and chorus, and the Legend is complete with an 11-pin external Leslie speaker output. Another optional extra available for users of the Legend is the full-sized console floor pedals, featuring 25 pedals connecting to a dedicated output.
The Legend presents itself as a world-class portable organ, accurately matching the high water mark laid down by the classic vintage organs of the past, in a modern unit.
