No prob. I'm happy to have something to share.

There are a couple Cream songs with Leslie. This convolution only gives the "wood" sound, and doesn't do the "whirling". But, there's a LADSPA plugin that does a pretty good Leslie whirling Doppler, so maybe experiment with running the plugin before or after the convolution.

Also, note that the convolution outputs 4 channels. You'll need to mix them somehow; in my demo I just sent channels 1 and 4 to the left side, and 2 and 3 to the right side.

Oh, the times they are a-changin'!

My B3 now fits in a backpack, along with a 1923 Steinway grand piano, not to mention a Fender Rhodes suitcase 73 and a Rhodes 88 stage. I can take all this on a bike, to the beach, or hiking in the hills.
