If you want a B3 type of sound on the cheap you're better off going with something like a Kawai E600 as seen here <code>http://organpron.wordpress.com/2008/05/15/kawai-e600a/</code>. It's kind of at the crossroads between a Funmachine type of sub-synthesizer and a legitimate organ. It even has a series of drawbars! They weigh at least 400 lbs., but they're pretty cheap - about the same as what you'd pay for a Piper Autochord, but far and away a better machine. I do love the Piper, though! Tony -

Or does it only sounds like a "Piano, Harpsichord, Sitar, Guitar, Marimba, Banjo, Trombone, Accordion, Flute, Violin, Trumpet or any combination of them.” I own a Funmachine and I dont want another similar organ. If anyone can clear my doubt, I would be very thankful.

Other than the case, and the fact that the one you have is a bit more rare, there's no difference. They're cheap, cool lil' organs - you won't be retiring on any money made from selling it. For what they are, I love 'em. Hey Mike.

La máquina es bastante fácil de utilizar. Palancas en el ' up' coloque son ' on' , hay una bobina del reverb que se puede activar de un nivel en la parte posterior. El tempo de la máquina de tambor acelera cuando el resbalador del tempo es ' levantado; up'. Iguales para el volumen. Hay también un volumen principal pdeal en el Piper' base de s. Presionándola ' down' aumenta el volumen, clavando ' up' disminuye el volumen. That' ¡s sobre él, <strong>pardon mi español creado babelfish!!</strong> No creo que es probable encontrar en esto última fecha. La máquina es bastante fácil de utilizar.
