I am using a Mini Vent II and TC Hall of Fame 2.

Currently using a KMix and have the HoF in an aux send loop and the Mini Vent coming back in two channels.

My signal route is Stage 3 >> Tall&Fat >> Ventilator 2 >> Hall of Fame 2 and it sounds good (like the Tall&Fat more than the Organ Grinder and also mor ethan the build-in distortion of the Vent 2)

For the pre-Leslie I use the Spring FlowWowers TonePrint - a very nice spring reverb
I really dig that “swirling” sound in the Leslie. (Best example would be Perfect Strangers)
As I read in some Hammond forums, it’s kind of a hot topic Pre- vs. Post Leslie
also Stage series beginning with S3 uses Pre-Leslie now
Post-Leslie I mostly use the stock “Room” preset.

On both HoF I tweak the settings very often during every gig or even song
(That’s why I put all pedals and power supply on top of my custom d3m )

You’re probably right - but I found the pretty much perfect sound (for me) based on what I read on the “Stage 3 Hammond B3 sound” thread - Overdrive 9-10 o’clock on S2EX and mostly 10-12 o’clock on the Vent

Coming back to the original intention of the post...

Andertons shows off a few pedals with a Nord in the first 6 videos of the following playlist

The Strymon Big Sky Reverb is something I think I read about in this forum and others multiple times.
This one and others of its kind have MIDI I/O, so you can toggle presets with your Nord

A rather nice new pedal(board) is the new Plethora X5 by TC Electronic - which would be an “all in one solution”

The Strymon BigSky is a great pedal, but I think because of its popularity a bit overrated.
This week I ordered the Specular Tempus from GFI Systems, a reverb and delay pedal.

Strymon El Capistan is wonderful on anything.
