PA or Leslie? Active monitors etc

Post by Octopus »

What do you use at home for your nord organ, Leslie or pa? Maybe something else?

Not for gigs, just for homeplaying!

Im gonna order à nord c2d with nord pedals 27.

Leslie or PA?

Cant decide....

Hi mr A :).
Leslie is the way to go.
Using a PA and sim is for sutations where you would mine the the leslie to feed the PA.
But even with the best monitors you will still not have the sensation as with a Leslie.
I is like driving an MG with the top up or down.
It is still nice with the top up (PA) - pull the top down and suddenly everything comes together (Leslie)

I can say now that I just last weekend purchased a Roland SA-300 and so far am happy with it. A true Leslie is better of course, but who wants to schlepp that beast around?

Just for homeplaying.

When i gig with My band i use ventilator.

Leslie must be the best alternative to have at home (the place where i play organ Everyday).
