I've never heard of an out-of-tune Hammond being a problem? Perhaps because we are not partying yet when the factories close down and all the switching is done, and on Sundays when we go to church - which we all do, no? - the factories aren't running at all. What can be said though, is that in order to mimic the electric sizzling sound of a melting power-station in America, you will build up your drone in the key of A# rather than in G - which would have been closer to the European 50 Hz There is a switch on the backside of the Hammond to spin it down in remembrance of those unforgettable brown-out moments. -- jedes mal wenn du eine quintparallele verwendest tötet bach ein kätzchen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43RdmmNaGfQ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
