The BEST Organ Plug-in ....Period!!!!

This is the all-new updated version of VB3, released last year in 2018. ....just when the majority of us were giving-up hope on an updated version (its been 8 years, since 2010). It is vastly improved over the original VB3 version 1.4 and now works very well with Windows 10. Why do I think it is the BEST? Because, ....IT HAS THE SOUND. Even the multiple-choices and parameters of Leslie rotating-speaker effects are great! ...and they do this with "algorithms" (not samples) so it is low-resource intensive. No other organ sounds like VB3, w/ exception of the Crumar Mojo (which utilizes the VB3 II engine in its firmware), Nord Stage series and the Hammond SK series. I have tried other organ plug-ins and hardware boxes and always go back to VB3 ....plus, I use it in conjunction with the newly released (2019) Crumar/GM Labs D9X organ MIDI controller-box which gives you 9 drawbars and most of the primary controls that are laid-out on the plug-in.
