Hi- I just got a SK1 used, a 2014, quite mint, sounds great. But when programming a split ( Ive had many full size hammonds, B3, B2, C3, so I like to a/b sounds, and set things up to function similarly as possible) the manual says to hit "split" button- but nothing happens. Checked the menu window, verfied the B2 default split point hasnt moved. but, hit "lower" in the left side "Drawbar" departmewnt, and the drawbars are not active at all in "lower" switch, only "upper". The other "test" is back on the right side, the "octave" department, pressing "lower", "down or "up", makes no difference to the lower part. So, seems I have a non functioning "split" button?
Id really like to have an octave higher, no Chorus/ Vibrato left hand part, and B2 seems a fine place. Anyone got any ideas? Asking around, I heard these are pretty bulletproof, if you take care of them. But the manual is so shabbily put together it quite possible some arcane function is hidden-
Also, Ive got what many consider the best sounding B3 ever, a '61 red beast- its been played by Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, Booker T, Dr. Lonnie Smith, very fire breathing but stock, no solid state crap. I have the Jim Alfredson custom stuff, but Id like to "clone " my B, see much about custom sounds but no mention of this service, yet it exists, and is a free download. Ill take a B over a C2 any day. Its the scanner vibrato that sounds so different on my B, wonder if just that can be modeled.
