I'm currently exploring the sounds from my SK Pro to perform the iconic "Won't Get Fooled Again" synthesized Lowrey organ sound from the iconic song by the Who. (Some say Pete T used a Hammond, but I've read it was done first on a Lowrey, yet one video shows him playing it on a Hammond).
Anyhow, the Hammond SK Pro has an organ patch called "Wont Get Fooled" and it's pretty close, but it needs some tweaks. It has the square-wave tremolo set at the correct depth and rate -- which matches up exactly with the BPM of the song when I play it from my iPhone -- and it has an Ace organ tone as the foundation. I've played around some using the Farfisa or Hammond tones, and still haven't settled on "the" organ sound I will use yet . But I did add a flanger effect to help enhance the sound, but I'm finding, to my ear at least, that it's missing the sound of the filter sweep...
* Has anyone added a polyphonic synth tone -- which could have a filter sweep added in time to complement the tremolo (maybe every 4 beats), as controlled by the LFO -- and allocating that into the mix with the organ sound? I haven't gotten to test it yet, but it seems it could do what I want.
* Or are there another SK Pro options and/or settings to play with?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
