Hmm, maybe this isn't such a great plan after all.
I played around with the TAP Rotary speaker plugin, and,
uh, I guess the nicest thing I can say about it is: it sounds nothing
like a Leslie.
Likewise, the CAPS Cabinet emulators are excellent for simulating guitar
amps, but the unique "woody" tone of a Leslie just isn't among its emulated
amp types. And Hammond/Leslie distortion has somewhat different
characteristics than guitar amp distortion, IIRC.
I have no idea what a real B3 organ sounds like so I don't know if this
is good advice or not, but if you want to try one more I have a mostly
finished port of the AZR-3 organ VST plugin to LV2 which will be
released some time after the LV2 spec is done.

no-frills tonewheel emulator in ChucK. I'm not sure I'd need to go to
the level of detail in modelling that he's gone to (i.e. including the
leakage from terminal strips), nor extra things like distortion,
reverb, or Leslie simulation since those are available through LADSPA.
