Description
A Hammond-emulating drawbar organ of the second-latest generation (ca. 1992). In module form factor, thus basically a Viscount D9 without the keyboard. Identical (except for the colour of the casing) to the Oberheim OB3, which is the predecessor to the way cool Oberheim OB32. This beastie is also available in a stage-organ version with a keyboard, called the Viscount D9, which is again identical to the Oberheim OB3O, predecessor of the OB32O.
The D9e is essentially a solid metal box with wooden side panels and a full set of nine drawbars on top. At the back, there are MIDI In and Thru connectors, mono output and headphone jacks and connectors for two foot switches and an expression pedal. You simply plug a MIDI-capable keyboard into MIDI in, hook up the output to your amplifier and there you are, roaring away Booker T. style.
There's more, however. Solid, LED-studded buttons on top provide access to six sensible preset registrations; you can use a foot switch to switch between the currently selected preset and the current drawbar setting. Other settings include: percussion 2nd/3rd/off; percussion loud/soft; percussion slow/fast; keyclick on/off; vibrato 1/2/3/off; Intersound on/off; Intersound slow/fast. Intersound is a bad, though footswitchable, Leslie simulation; use not recommended.
