Hi,
Does anyone know of any samples of the Farfisa organs electronic piano cousin?

Jim

I did not know that such a thing existed...
Here are some mp3s:

Not sure I am missing anything!

I suppose you could say it's unloved and it's possibly no more than a Farfisa organ with a piano envelope. Put it through complex chorusing though and it's sublime. I would cite "Vernal Equinox" by Can the "pad" sound on that isn't a synth or string machine.
As it was though, it still made it onto a few hit records in the 1970's and I don't think it's any less an instrument than the RMI piano.
I would see it as an idiosyncratic tone source for further processing. If Clavia were to give the modeled Farfisa organ some envelope options it would be nice

Try RMI electric piano quite similar flavour...
