B-3 Sound Module, EMU
$649.48



E-MU's B-3 module delivers the magical B-3 tonewheel organ sound in one rack space. Meticulously sampled, E-MU's B-3 offers you an exhaustive palette of authentic drawbar settings, distortion, and tremendous rotary speaker control via the B-3's real-time controls. The B-3 even offers you percussive features that play just like the real thing - no other module can touch it! And the B-3 is 64-voice polyphonic and expandable with an additional ROM slot (or more with Turbo upgrade), letting you fit even more power and sounds into this amazing one rackspace unit. Nothing else sounds closer to the real thing.
