The New Hammond XK-1 is Hammond’s latest Pro Keyboard project. This amazing Pro Keyboard like the B3 and XK3 is powered by the critically acclaimed VASE III Digital tone wheel generator plus a host of other essential features familiar to the Hammond Keyboard Players, like ‘real’ drawbars, Waterfall keys, on board twin rotor digital ‘Leslie’ and many more.

The XK-1 features 61-note Waterfall keys keyboard with Velocity, and at only 15 kg it has becomes an essential for gigging keyboardists. If you have ever played a console before this is the original. The sounds are so close that it is like the sound of the real Hammond, if you have ever heard and experienced the power of a real Hammond. Leslie simulation and programmability is fantastic. As for programmability the draw bars registration are the same as the B and C, other parameters are all well laid out.

As the Hammond XK-1 is a single manual keyboard, the key split is nice and the bass to the lower keys give you that extra thump you need when you don’t have the midi foot pedals attached. Amazingly, the portable keyboard cost less than half the price of Hammond XK3. Unbelievable! but true.

The new Hammond XK-3c has been designed with the professional musician in mind. Built upon the outstanding features and astounding tone-wheel type sound found on the legendary XK-3 keyboard which is no longer being produced. Hammond engineers have added many of the most requested advanced features and effects never before found on a Hammond keyboard of this price range.

The XK-3c features 73 (61 + 12 preset keys) Waterfall keys with velocity, two sets of 9 and one set of two drawbars, Vase III sound generator creates 96 independent oscillating digital tone wheels for accurate reproduction of B3 sound, original B-3 reverse color keys presets, split upper and lower vibrato/chorus switches, assignable controller for MIDI instruments, advanced digital Leslie and vibrato scanner. The XK-3c is also equipped with a vacuum dual tube preamplifier and overdrive. Most importantly, the XK-3c has full polyphony. Like the Hammond XK-3 keyboard, the new XK-3c can be used strictly as a single keyboard or expanded into a two-manual B-3 like organ when used in conjunction with either the innovative PRO or Traditional XK Systems.

The XK-3c is so well thought out and is set up to be reminiscent of a very fine vintage Hammond B-3 Organ. However, the XK-3c allows you advanced and comprehensive control over all of the different features of a Hammond Organ. This allows you to mold your XK-3c into your dream organ which will sound and play exactly as you wish. Normally, technicians command high prices to customize a B-3 to individual tastes. But, now you have all of this control at your fingertips, in a simple interface. Or you can just play your XK-3c without modification, either way the XK-3c is designed to be mirror image of a classic Hammond Organ.
