Description
The V3 is a Hammond organ synthesizer module which simulates the sound created by the 91 rotating tone wheels in a Hammond console model organ -- B-3, C-3, RT-1, A-100, etc. -- as well as a number of subtle nuances associated with the "Hammond sound", all electronically. The V3 uses both analog and digital technologies to provide its sounds, and digital controls to program and modify its numerous customizable features. Included in the design is the equivalent of Voce's highly praised Spin Leslie simulator. The lightweight unit is mountable in a single 19" rack space, plus an optional drawbar module which sits on or near the MIDI keyboard used with the V3.
The V3 can produce up to three channels of output: an upper channel, which also controls the overall tone and character of the patch, a lower channel, which can use its own set of drawbar controls, and a bass pedal channel. The V3 is designed to use any and all of its 91 oscillators at the same time, providing dual 61-note plus pedals polyphony.

David Rosenthal utilizes a Voce V3 in his understage control center, as confirmed by a feature in Keyboard Magazine.
"here's a Nord Lead, Roland JV-1080s with every expansion card ever, a couple of crummy old Casios that always seem to have sounds I can't get any other way. We've got a Wurlitzer, a Rhodes Mark V, accordions, a Voce V3, there's a wide variety of stuff. I have the studio configured so I can just plug anything in and go. Working this fast, I couldn't do it any other way."
