Nice! I like the effect with chromatic better, without bends.
I liked your use of partial chords and especially the technique you used at 1:03 which sounds like an organ fingering.
I agree that it would be nice to hear octaves and maybe occasional 3 or 4 note draw chords. I thought I heard a moment or two of that. Maybe that multi note draw fat sound doesn't work so well through the pedal?
Anyway, thank you for going to the trouble of recording the pedal with chromatic in 3rd (Dm). I like it with chromatic better than with diatonic. ----------
I'd say you have achieved "organ" sound. I heard something that reminded me of something I discovered in using effects to get organ sounds, and that is harmonicas bend far more than traditional organs and you can loose the organ allusion if you get too heavy with the bending. I think you can disregard all critiques. What we are hearing is a sample, not an arranged and practiced song. You are there.
Yeah that sounds pretty sweet. I have never played through a B9 pedal but have played through several of these organ simulators in the past from bandmates and jammers who had them and I found the more octaves you do the more "confused" the simulator gets and it sounds more "chorus-y" and accordion-like than like an organ. For those of us not gigging and quarantining at the moment, there are free effects in Garageband and BandLab (and I'm sure other recording programs on different PC Platforms) that do a Leslie-type sound that you can play around with, for fun. Doesn't sound as nice as Diggs' sample here, but they give you an idea of how to navigate your playing (less bending) to get the effect...
