The Ferrofish B4000+ Hammond B3 Organ Expansion Module delivers an authentic sound experience, reminiscent of legendary Hammond organs in a compact, easy-to-use format.

This module simulates the B3's 91 tone wheels with remarkable precision, including interactions between them, mechanical wear and effects such as scanner vibrato, tube amp and reverb. Additionally, the legendary Leslie effect is perfectly reproduced for an immersive and authentic sound experience.

Thanks to its advanced features, the B4000+ allows 2 keyboards to be connected directly via MIDI ports, thus offering the possibility of playing simultaneously on the upper and lower keyboard.
A third pedal manual can also be added, allowing up to three keyboards to be played simultaneously with full polyphony. Additionally, features such as external volume control and rotation speed switching can be easily added for an even more personalized gaming experience.

One of the standout features of the B4000+ is its built-in effects processor, offering effects such as Rotor (Leslie), Chorus, Amplifier Simulation, Vibrato and Reverb. These effects add additional depth and expressiveness to your playing, allowing you to create a wide range of organic and immersive sounds.

In short, a real Hammond B3, just a little lighter.
