    Elegante and Leslie 720



    I'm wanting to give a friend my Leslie 720, will it fit right into his Hammond Elegante, meaning is the Elegante an 11 pin organ? Will he be able to 'plug and play', control the leslie from the organs tabs or will he need a connector kit installed. Any info appreciated.</P>

    I'm sure the Elegante is an 11 pin model. The 720 should be plug and play, but it's only 2 channel. I think that to get the best out of the Elegante, you'd need the matching 540 'top box' for the extra channels in the organ.</P>

    It's not what you play. It's not how you play. It's the fact that you're playing that counts.

      that makes sense, for the non flute voices I guess. Thanks, Andy.</P>

        <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Yes the Elegante does have a 11 Pin Leslie socket. One can however still use the internal multi-channel speaker system with or without the Leslie.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

        <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'">A later revision with two illuminated pushbuttons on the right side between the manuals routes the sound output. The available combinations are Main Off and Echo (Leslie)On.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
