This means I earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. In this video, I demonstrate the new Leslie simulation in the Viscount Legend Soul.

While it still doesn’t quite feel like playing through a real Leslie which may be too much to ask anyway, BUT this is the most credible Leslie sim I’ve heard so far in a hardware clonewheel organ. It has more depth, movement, and warmth than anything else I’ve tried — especially in the high end, which often sounds too thin in digital organs.

I’ve used some solid plugin-based Leslie sims before (like those from IK Multimedia and Universal Audio), but this is the first time I’ve heard something this convincing inside a physical instrument.

🎧 Headphones or studio monitors recommended.

Special thanks to Pat Bianchi for helping me understand the technical side of the update.
