GEM organ samples

Post by remymallett »

Tomorrow I am going to sample a GEM organ into the Stage 3. I just wondered if anyone had already done this by any chance? Would save me lots of time. :lol:

Thanks in advance,

Remy

I looked up "GEM" and surprisingly found that I used to own one - actually a Baldwin Howard Combo that was made in Italy by GEM back in the mid-late 60s. YouTube videos of folks opening them up show the similarity down to the circuit boards between the GEM and Vox Jaguar. From what I recall the sounds weren't all that different than the other "transistor" organs at the time. Have you tried your GEM side-by-side with the Stage 3 through the same amplification to see if you can get close with the Stage 3 with Vox or Farfisa and the EQ/AMP section?
