HaNon B70 ToneWheel Organ +4

Pretty good basic tones, but...now I eat crow!

edit: HOLY SMOKES!!! Excellent developer is quite responsive and updates have fixed nearly all of the previous quibbles I noticed.

The tones on the drawbars are really quite good.
The chorus/vibrato 1’s are rather subtle but still sound good and the knob for the other settings is authentic.
The percussion settings and sounds are all there and do the legato thing like they should.

The Leslie fast/slow button is in a good location. A new “Tweak” button provides controls to adjust fast, slow and ramp speeds. Nice stereo separation but no adjustment there, yet. Also there is little perception of a separation of the horn and drum on ramp up/down, as if they are on the same pulley. However the horn/drum mix slider level works well and is handy where it is located.

The Leslie Drive slider is one of the BEST parts of the app. Good job on this bit. Many hardware keyboards and pedals don’t get the drive to respond as well as this app does. Sounds great, if just a tad bright. A tone knob or eq would be a real nice there.

The key click and leakage sliders are handy and useful.

The reverb is great with loads of adjustment. Good job there, too.

(edit: fixed) All issues and bugs reported in my first review, have been removed from this post because the developer fixed them all with the first update. Very impressive.

Well done!

Hi Pete, thank you for your expert feedback. In the new 1.3.1 version, a lot of issues you raise have been fixed. The interruption wav only with virtual keyboard (and now has been fixed). The Black drawbars have now a better contrast. The percussions didn't goes in the C/V anymore and the retrigger time has been adjusted. In the next weeks I plan to add access on parameters tweaking (Leslie speed/ acceleration / percussion level, etc ... ). 

UPDATE: I said if they added AUv3 it would be a 5 star app. The did & IT IS!

UPDATE: The Audio Unit implementation is flawless. A real gem, the sounds were never the issue. No you can use them anywhere in any AU host. A must buy...Highly recommended.
Original 3-star Review: The sounds are great, the GUI is clean and easy to use and the price is very competitive. The only thing that’s missing is Audio Units. Unless we can use the app in our DAW’s etc. it’s value is going to be limited to keyboard players using it as a rompler B3. There isn’t even Inter App Audio. Bring connect-ability to the app and I’ll change my review to 5 stars.

Hello, thanks, the AUv3 support will come in the next release very soon!

Great but Additonal Features such as two manual support and pedal organ support

This works great for hammond organ virtual software on a budget. Sounds Great and works worderfully. The only major suggestions that would improve this program are the following:

Two manual support, pedal organ support, and realtime drawbar control support.

Other than that, Great Virtual Hammond Organ Software.
