Hi,
Here is a beta version of B3 Library converted to Fantom G format.

Instructions:
Unzip the file (password is jcr) and copy it to your USB memory stick and then load in your Fantom G. You need at least 90MB of free SD RAM to load the samples. There are 10 patches.

PS: I do not have the Fantom G (I have the X), so I am not sure how it will sound on G. Maybe some rework can be needed.

Note: our colleague Pedrokeysjunior is also graciously working in order to convert this library to Fantom G and Juno G format. Let's wait.

Later I will post the Melltrons for Fantom G.

Cesarsound.

Thank you so much Cesar.
As soon I use this sound on Fantom-G I'll give you a feedback.
See you later.

Where are the patches or live sets?

I just loaded this project on my G.


I see 261 samples in my sample list, however.
Wow, do they sound great!

There are 10 patches, you should tweak a little bit that patches to make them sound better.

Wow! Great!

This may solve my organ needs altogether!

There are some bad samples...A few of the high notes on 009 Rock Show (F, F#, G, G#) and a couple middle notes on 006 JM Slow (Eb and E)

Otherwise great so far! I would really Love a Corrected Rock Show! That patch sounds awesome!

I've added the G's Leslie to B3 Full with Excellent results!

Thanks!

@Cesarsound: Great work man. Really good samples, and the patches, although not perfect, with little tweaking, give great results!

Thanks a lot. I suggest that you post the link, together with a new topic, in the Fantom-G's section.
I'm pretty sure that only a few Fantom-G users got to know this library. ;-)

I like all the samples so far, except the broken ones...

The one's I mentioned above are broken (Loud Static), etc.

I probably wasn't really clear on my last post.

I don't know if they got broken in translating to the G or not?

Anyway...Great work!

Hi Andy Keys, madAhorn, cyclops, Pedrokeysjunior, thanks for your comments and interest !

Pedro, good job and very good playing style ! You are a pro !

As I mentioned, originnaly I made this library to Fantom X and I do not have the Fantom G (I have the X). So, I only made the conversion to G format and I was not able to check it and tweak each multisample, patches or EFX. Hopefully in the next revision and I can fix the issues.

Here is a simple video I did. I am demoing the B3 Library in my Fantom X. The samples are in stereo, note the stereo field of rotary speaker and the authenticity of patches, including the wheel leakage, key click and percussion.

PS: Sorry for the sloppy playing, because I just wanted to show the sounds and I was holding the camera on the left hand...

After playing these organ patches for a while longer on the G, I did find some more anomales.

Mostly loop point clicks. On about 20% of the samples I had to move the loop end point over by the smallest margin to the right (when zoomed all the way out) Then they were smooth. A G thing I am sure.

A handfull of samples are broken altogether by mostly Loud Static noises.

After fixing the loop points, about 7 of the 10 patches seem to work really well.


About the broken samples...when I try to replace them with another sample the G won't seem to let me do it...

Maybe some G owner will soon have a solution.
I love the sound of these Organs!

Thanks for comments.

To solve this problem is necessary to load the samples in a PC sample editor and redo the loopings and /or apply the cross fading on loopings. I should do it when some free time is availabe.

Cesarsound,

Thank you for sharing your hard work with us. When extracting the files from the zip I get asked for a password. What would that be.

Thanks
