Splitting your Hammond sounds?
Posted: 17 Aug 2025, 09:44
Hello folks,
Talking Hammonds here.
The Stage is one "manual" not two like a Hammond.
Do you guys "ordinarily" split your keyboards?
Normally, for a Bass sound on the Hammond (if you are not using pedals) is 2 drawbars out. That is rarely wanted on the RHS.
I think there might be other ways of using the split - particularly if you have a solid left hand.
If you were to construct a GOTO all purpose Hammond what would be in each split? Jimmy Smith?
How about for a very playable right hand - maybe something verging on a Rhodes?
