not to threadjack, but if we could get in touch with this person:
http://people.dsv.su.se/~fk/beatrix_home.html
...and talk him into making Beatrix open-source, we might get a lot
further than asking someone to code it from scratch.
Back in 2007 there was a related thread, named
"Free-as-in-freedom B3, other than Bristol?"[1].
IIRC, I was involved in that thread back then.
Csound b3-emulation patches are mentioned there,
and azr3-jack[2]. I don't know how well azr3-jack suits
for a Hammond emulation but it makes nice sounds.
At least it's a GPL option for not starting to code from
scratch.
I have been using AZR3-JACK ever since that discussion two years ago, on my own tracks,
with live bands, in the studio, on recordings, and now even on a commercial rock record. I
love it. Problem solved, AFAIAC.
The Leslie emulation could be a tiny bit more accurate, and the tonewheel shapes are kind
of "flattened" sines (with several different settings) rather than a 100%
faithful representation of a Hammond tonewheel, but, hey, it works and it's free and
open-source and it sounds great.
