## Overview

The Ferrofish B4000+ Hammond B3 organ module delivers authentic tonewheel organ sound with 9 real drawbars, advanced mechanical emulations, and a high-res TFT display. Powered by ARM Cortex M3 and Sharc DSP processors, it offers full polyphony, customizable Leslie speaker effects, and comprehensive MIDI/USB connectivity in a compact, rugged metal chassis weighing under 5 pounds—perfect for touring professionals and studio musicians craving classic Hammond vibes with modern flexibility.

## Description

The B4000+ combines the legendary unique Hammond B3 organ sound with modern design and ease of use. Built like a tank, the tone module features 9 real drawbars. With high-resolution endless potentiometer knobs, a TFT display and full MIDI control, the B4000+ packs the authentic sound of the mighty B3 in a light-weight package – ready to travel around the world in your shoulder bag. Based on the incredible processing power of a Sharc DSP and a Cortex 3 ARM, all the features of the glorious ancestor have been modeled with the highest accuracy. Starting with 91 tonewheels, including leakage and condition – digital “Clonewheels”. Adding full polyphony, scanner vibrato, tube amplifier emulation with overdrive and – of course – a convincing rotating Leslie speaker simulation. Even the notorious key clicks and percussion sounds are reproduced just like in old times. The B4000+ allows it to connect up to two keyboards via the MIDI ports plus pedal and sustain controllers for the full playing experience. The integrated Split Mode allows it to split a keyboard for the upper and lower manual on two sections. MIDI data is also transferred via USB. All incoming MIDI data is transferred to the PC via USB and can be recorded in a sequencer. The B4000+ can feed an external audio signal into the internal effect section, e. g. the rotor and reverb effects. The signal can either be fed directly to the mix or pass trough the effects section.

Review: Makes Me Want to Join a Grandpa Rock Band - I want to get a couple of quirks I experienced out-of-the-way first. I'm sure that they're unique to my installation, but I feel that I should mention them out of a sense of completeness. First, when I plugged in my expression pedal to the controller, (a vintage Roland A33) it responded backwards. Checking the manual on the controller, it is an expression pedal, not assigned to CC7, which is main volume. I tried the reverse switch on this device, still backwards. I use the controller for this and a board that has a bad key bed, and that one worked normally. Swapping the cables, the old board still worked normally and, this device was still backwards. I plugged the pedal directly into the back of the module and it works normally. I guess I'll just have to get one more for that old board. (Sigh.) The other is that the harmonic percussion is too loud, even when set to minimum. There are a few notes that are ear-splitting. That's my monitor speakers, I'm 99% sure... an off-brand pair of 10" two-way speakers with horrible crossovers. (Update: After playing with some EQ, it's much better.) I used to have a Hammond B with Leslie speaker. I'm not even sure which version of the B. It didn't have harmonic percussion, reverb, or even vibrato or chorus. It did have the plate for the rotary switch, but not the actual switch, assignment tabs, or scanner. I think that a previous owner was going to retrofit it but gave up trying. But what it DID have was that sound. That breathy, growly, beautiful Hammond sound. When I became a dad, I would play kiddie songs for the babies on electric piano, Farfisa Compact, and various synthesizers. Nah, not interested. Musical toys? Same thing. Crank up that old Hammond and that did the trick. Later, when I got a job as the Maintenance and Setup Guy at a recording studio, I brought it with. (That's where my handle comes from. Not as a performer.) When I left the studio, I had to leave it behind. So does this unit live up to my memories? Pretty darned close. I've had the opportunity to play a few real B3 and several different clonewheels over the years, and I'm impressed. Playing with the settings, I was able to get pretty close to that growl that I so miss. Unlike a synthesizer or sample playback instrument, it responds like an organ. I'll spare you the technical details. Just that the tone generators are always on and gated by the keys, so the relationship between notes is consistent. Most clonewheels do that, no synthesizers or sample playback instruments that I'm aware of do; if you can get the percussion layer to single trigger, that's lucky. The rotary speaker simulator has a lot of control and customization, the distortion sounds good at low levels, not quite tube, but it still sounds good. Personally, I like having the acceleration a little faster than a real Leslie speaker... I use the acceleration as an accent, and it brings it out a little. The reverb has a lot of variability, and can sound like a spring reverb or like room ambience. While it's not the focus, it will do a pretty good transistor organ. The same thing applies for the tone generators, so better than a synthesizer or sample playback instrument. There is a rotary speaker simulator speed controller jack. You can either use a single switch for fast/slow; "chorale/tremolo" if memory serves, and a dual switch connected to a TRS plug adds brake. The pedal can be set for momentary or latching switches. You can use velocity for volume, but really? Okay, it's there. On the other hand, you can use velocity to have the different partials to trigger slightly staggered, like on a real organ. Cool. (Every key on an organ controls multiple contacts. If you press the key slowly, it will stagger when the partials make contact.) For the wish list? When in play mode, I wish that the alpha knobs could be assigned to things like percussion on-off or the chorus/vibrato mode. My controller doesn't have any assignable switches, so that's something that I miss. Speaking of assignable functions, there is no MIDI implementation chart in the manual. It's available on the website, as is a list of the factory presets. I would also recommend panning the sound system a little less than hard left and right. Most likely, your speakers are further apart than the width of a rotary speaker cabinet, right? Also for the wish list, there are two audio outputs. One is a headphone jack, and one is just labeled as an output. Since there's also a stereo input, it would be nice if the "output" could be assigned to the tone circuitry pre-effects, so the input could double as an effect loop, then use the "headphone" output as a main. It will easily drive a mixer input. I don't have the facilities to try this, but if I was going to record it, I'd try a couple of tube guitar amps like Fender Twins, back to back or in a tight "V" and two good dynamic mics in an x-y configuration. A studio that well-equipped probably has a real Hammond, so just a thought exercise. This instrument Makes Me Want to Join a Grandpa Rock Band and relearn all the Cold 'n' Moldies that I played in high school. What's a Grandpa Rock band? Just like any rock band, except when you sneak out to the van on break, it's not to smoke a little weed, it's to check your blood sugar. And if you bring that girl that was giving you the eye out with you, it's not for a little romance, it's to rub a little Ben Gay on your back. Those speakers get heavier each gig! Ferrofish is a company that makes recording gear, and this device seems a little off-brand. I'm glad that they make it, but my guess is that there will not be a keyboard version. Shame. They could put the circuitry with some dedicated switches and two sets of drawbars with a good unweighted key bed, and it could retail for a lot less than the competition. Maybe partner with Behringer...?
Review: Well-Built, Feature-Rich, But… - Drawbars and harmonics are excellent. Percussion and chorus are adjustable, but too prominent, even at their lowest settings. Leslie effect is acceptable. Most settings are buried in the button-row menu system. Display is small but very readable. Built very well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will i be able to hook this up to my keyboard?**
A: You should be able to connect this to a keyboard, as long as it has a Midi interface. I simply connected the module (Midi In) to the Midi out jack, via Midi cable, then ran 1/4" to my amp from the module. Hope that helps.

**Q: On leslie, does it have both fast and slow speeds?**
A: Yes has fast and slow speeds.  You can also adjust the rate the fast and slow motors speed up and slow down. Think of a Leslie with old worn belts. You can adjust mic angle and distance.  

Every adjustment you can think of is there.

I use mine with a MIDI sequencer, which allows me quick access to all controllers.

**Q: Why does this have "channel analog multitrack recorder, royal blue" in the description?**
A: Hi J. Thomas.  Where do you see that?  In the Amazon Description? In the Ferrofish manual?  I'm pretty sure the device doesn't have any 'recording' capability outside of being able to dump and load patches via USB.

**Q: Compatible to yamaha p293. ?  ( has usb and out put jacks) accessories needed ( usb /power supply?**
A: That should work -- the Ferrofish B4000 has a USB MIDI in jack which will also power it.
