Hammond B3 Sound on a Casio CT-X3000

[Louis Doyle]

Hello, I am fairly new to keyboard forums so excuse me if I am asking questions already asked. Is it possible to recreate the B3 Hammond Sound on Dwight Yoakam 'Fast As You' on a Casio CT-X3000?

Probably not....

Probably not directly.

Connecting up an iPad or iPhone and using an App then yes would would be able to.

One slight problem is that the B3X app costs £129.

There are other organ Apps available

Thank you. I will make do with what's already there

I'm not familiar with that song, or that specific sound. And the CT-X3000 lacks "drawbars" or any other provision for changing the tone color of a basic organ sound. However: according to the appendix, the CT-X3000 has twenty (20) electric organ voices. There's a strong chance that one of them would be a reasonable stand-in for the sound in your country song. My $.02.

IPad and a bit cheaper than the B3X

Arguably the biggest contributor to the Hammond sound is proper use of the Leslie rotating speaker (or simulator); fast/slow/transition. Today's "clonewheel" organs, besides all the Hammond features like drawbars, percussion, chorus and vibrato, simulate the Leslie. Your Casio may have a decent "dry" organ sound, or may include a "fixed" Leslie speed, but unless you wanted to go a very expensive route (doubtful by your choice of keyboard), the answer would be "no."
