Control the instrument’s signature percussive click and sweet modulation. Blend your dry signal to create lush layers. Enough tonewheel and combo organ inspiration to light your fire and cook up some green onions!

The B9 transforms the tone of a guitar and/or keyboard into that of a convincing full body electric organ.

The tracking on the B9 can keep up with the quickest musical passages.

Controls

Dry Volume Knob
Controls the volume of the untreated instrument level at the ORGAN OUTPUT jack.

Organ Volume Knob
Controls the overall volume of the ORGAN preset.

Mod Knob
MOD controls the speed of modulation. The type of modulation is contingent on the preset selected. The different types of modulation available are vibrato, tremolo and chorus. See the preset descriptions for modulation type.

Click Knob
CLICK controls percussive click level. It was designed to simulate the harmonic percussion effect on classic B3 and C3 organs. The click will be added to the very first note or chord played. The click will retrigger only when current notes have been released and their amplitude falls below a threshold. For a few presets, CLICK controls parameters unique to the preset. See the preset descriptions for details.
