The Best is Back GG Audio's Blue3 tonewheel organ is back, better, and more affordable, with a whole new look from Cherry Audio. Blue3 is a meticulously modeled — not sampled — vir tual instrument that replicates the most famous tonewheel organs in the world: the B-3, C-3, A-100, L-100, CV, and M-3 models. With 31 tonewheel sets accurately capturing variations between vintage instruments, 91 modeled tonewheels with phase synchronization, and authentically emulated scanner vibrato/chorus, Blue3 delivers the iconic, soulful sounds associated with nearly a century of blues, gospel, rock, and jazz classics. Cherry Audio's Blue3 features a new, beautifully designed user interface with Main, Edit, Cabinet, and Perform sections. And it goes beyond the traditional B3 sound by adding three studio-quality stompbox-style effects: Tape Echo Delay, Reverb with Spring, Plate, and Hall, and a Seven-band Graphic EQ. Blue3 offers full polyphony for upper, lower, and pedal manuals, a customizable keyboard split function, and handy drawbar utilities including Copy, Swap, Reset, and Randomize. Tones can be further refined with settings for condition, key click, percussion, and multiple overdrive options. The Cabinet page provides six speaker options and adjustable rotary speed with acceleration and deceleration. The microphone simulation includes spread and distance controls, four mic selections, and click-and-drag placement in an updated UI. With MIDI mapping and a rich library of over 200 presets covering classic to modern tones, Blue3 is the ultimate package for both stage and studio. “What surprised me most about your Blue 3 was the purity of the sound together with the minimal load on the processor. I expected that it would be some kind of standard organ emulator, but it turned out that this instrument can be used in almost anywhere in any of my tracks.” Majed Salih Musician, producerMedievil Music “Blue3 just sounds more “real" than everything else I’ve used. It’s going in the top position in my Sessions Template. I’m particularly fond of the 57 recapped C3 with the close miked 122, and the ability to dial in the “wind on the mikes” sound I’m so used to hearing in my phones when my ’51 C2/122 is miked in the studio. It’s richer, warmer, aggressive or sweet and soulful, whatever the track calls for. Everything from Winwood/Whiter Shade/Jon Lord to Jimmy Smith to Charles Hodges….it’s all there! Nice graphic interface too. I’m sold.” Steve Nathan Nashville-based session keyboardist, “Keyboardist of the Year” by Music Row Magazine for 13 consecutive years, and advisory board member of The Music Player Network/Keyboard CornerOver 100 top talents from every genre including B.B. King, The Beach Boys, Billy Joel, Taylor Swift, George Strait, and countless others. “Even as an electronic musician you want some dirt, fire and personality. The Blue3 is a terrific organ plug-in with tons of control. Another great everyday instrument from the geniuses at Cherry Audio.” Michael Whalen Michael Whalen 2X Emmy® Award Winning Composer and Recording Artist with more than one billion streams to his credit. “Congrats Cherry Audio, Blue3 is completely awesome! Authentic Hammond and Leslie rotor tone with an acoustic dimension and a realism that is hard to beat. Add a beautiful interface and several wonderful options makes this my favorite Hammond emulation by far!” Phil Bennett KeyboardistStarship “It’s warm and crunchy, just like the real thing! The layout is impressive, easy to navigate, loaded with crafty presets, and manipulating your sound on the fly is a breeze. I’ll be turning to it regularly in my production work.” Kevin Gerzevitz Professional musician, composer and teacher based in the San Francisco Bay Area, and part of the Artist Roster at Hammond Organ USAB3B4 Organ Jazz Quartet, Vintage Jukebox, The KG Trio and Quartet “Amazing! This sounds so close I wish I could take it on the road with Lucero. The interface is gorgeous. Effects placement just perfect. And, as always with Cherry Audio, the presets are abundant and so good.
