The KeyB Solo uses DLQ's own unique "Physical Instrument Modeling" algorithm. With PIM you hear an exact clone of the classic tonewheel organ. The result is the natural sound of tonewheels that can't be obtained when using traditional sampling. PIM provides the best reproduction of the sound produced by a tonewheel organ, including cross talk, tonewheel flutter, electric hum and octave tapers.
Maybe you don't have one or it's not convenient to take a rotary speaker with you. Don't worry! The new KeyB Rotary Simulation is incredibly realistic. It's so good you'll have to look twice to see where the rotors are, this is because of the PIM engine.
When you sit down at the KeyB Solo, all you have to do is turn it on and play. Everything you need and are familiar with, on a classic tonewheel organ, is there right where it belongs. No confusing menus or LCD screens full of features that you most likely don't or won't use. After all, it's an organ.
If you have been playing a classic tonewheel organ, then you will feel at home with the KeyB Solo. It has two sets of 9 drawbars and 2 pedal drawbars.
Along with the best sound and being easy to play, the KeyB Solo has a heavy-duty 61-note keyboard with the feel of an organ, not a synthesizer or cheap portable keyboard.
Located right where they belong are the rocker tabs to control the 2nd and 3rd harmonic percussion. Soft and normal percussion volume, fast and slow percussion attack.
You can use vibrato/chorus independently for the upper and lower manuals or together just like the classic drawbar organ. Use the familiar rotary control to select all three Vibrato and Chorus settings.
The realtime controls include transpose, bass, treble, key klick, crosstalk, volume, reverb and overdrive.
The split controls include split on/off, octave up on/off, and pedals to lower on/off.
The rotary control allow you to change the speed or stop the internal and/or external rotary simulation, and select drawbars set A/B.
The KeyB Solo can be connected to either a keyboard amplifier or if you need more power, connect it to an external rotary speaker via the line outs.
The KeyB Solo has MIDI in and out for the keyboards and the pedals, and inputs for a rotary switch, expression pedal and sustain pedal. The Gospel set switch allows you to invert the upper and lower drawbar sets. A USB connector is available for easy software upgrades.
The KeyB Solo organ automatically supports 115 - 230VAC 50/60Hz mains power.
