Oh. A Leslie speaker gives a complicated mixture of amplitude and frequency modulation (the FM is due to doppler shift from the moving speaker) that bounces around the room in 3D. It's not easy to replicate it with an all-electronic circuit.

yea that's true, but if you go to the music store and play with one of the Hammond variants with the built-in Leslie, its really hard to tell the difference. Now they're just doing it through one amp, but if I split the mono into stereo and place the speakers far enough apart, it will sound like its moving. And especially using the RC time function of the BS2, I can use a pot and a capacitor to create the variable time input to the program code and ajdust in real time.
My dad has the Pro Sound 3 rotary horn, but has no low or mids with a rotating speaker. So this may be really close. Also, its not just that the Leslie speakers rotate, there are 2 horns for 1 bass, and they spin in opposite directions. Aside from that, the weigh too much, and if I can put it in a project box, heh, its worth it.

Actually, its quite easy. There is a huge different between the built-in Leslie and the original. Growing up, we had a C-3 organ with a Model 45 Leslie and it blows away anything made nowadays including the hammonds with built-in leslie. Its just not the same.

Whee, music! I have a pretty varied taste. You can tell from my last.fm page my general music likes (love Final Fantasy music; Oingo Boingo and Jimmy Eat World are probably my two favorite bands in the world; and my new-found music loves are Anberlin and Eisley) but one thing that's difficult to tell from that is my insane love of video game remixes (though if you frequent the chatroom you might know that :P). They're by different artists and for different games and whatnot, so they don't show up in any coherent way on the stats. I also love soundtracks to movies and anime, a dabbling of jpop, and pretty much anything alternative rock.

I'm also teaching myself how to play the guitar. It's hard. :-@

I listen to all kinds of musics, from classical to hip hop. But the orgasmic nature of CARMINA BURANA, (Carl Orff) makes me listen to it very often. Goa psyTrance ( Astral Projection for example ) is quite orgasmic for me too.

I have a 800+ cd collection, comprising of mainly metal, rock and alternative (with 20 or so classical disks), but no opera or country to be seen or heard. As of late I've been on a Type O neg kick ---about as heavy as my library gets.
As an aside... I just had a mri done on my noggin and it (the mri apparatus) made the coolest techno style sounds, I really wish I could have sampled it. It was awesome. Rich
