Description
The Super II is based on a 1965 VOX super continental dual manual organ. Many variations of this keyboard exist : single manuals, dual manuals, with and without the percussions switches. The one we used is a rare for it is a dual manual with an extra output for a pedal keyboard and has percussion switches.
The VOX continental was used a lot by bands in the 1960’s rock bands that included The Beatles, The Doors, and The Animals.
Acoustic Samples recorded every drawbar of each of the 3 keyboards separately so that you can control the interface and explore every available tone of the Super II. They also sampled it with and without the vibrato effect. The pedal keyboard also has a sustain feature as well as a legato up function that we recreated to mimic the behaviour of the original instrument.
They also added a complete chain of effects : a spring reverb, a saturation and a cabinet simulation with 20 different cabinets and microphones combinations plus a rotary speaker.
