Hello -
I had to smile about the phrase "only a Hammond sounds like a Hammond". I
would have agreed prior to purchasing a Roland Atelier to compliment my
Rodgers 905 (digital). Now, I sometimes tell people that my Atelier is
capable of sounding more like a Hammond than a Hammond. The Atelier is, of
course, all digital.

That is true, ...but in the same semblance of thought
expressed as a commentary by the uninitiated, "...OH!,
it sounds like a pipe organ." ...(of course, a well
set up and voiced analog organ that sounds "like"
a pipe organ <grins>), you have a certain
flutish ensemble of sound with fat tremolo that
reminds one very much of the Hammond. THAT is what
I was describing when the organist at the funeral
played "ad infinitum" from beginning to end with
the same sound. What a burden to endure.
By the way, this in no way demeans the Rodgers on
which it was played. Just that the organist wanted
that "funeral parlor" sound for this experience.
