Critic Reviews

Hammond XB1

soundonsound.com

The Hammond XB-1 impresses with its significantly improved Leslie simulation and sleek design, providing a solid Hammond sound and extensive MIDI capabilities. While it excels in sonic quality and ease of editing compared to its predecessor, the XB2, it stumbles with a slightly 'fizzy' overdrive and less convincing percussion tones. The need for an adapter to connect to an external Leslie speaker is a minor inconvenience. Overall, the XB-1 is a worthy choice for those seeking a portable, MIDI-friendly Hammond experience.
