leslie motor question

[Guest]

does powering both the slow and fast motors result in slow speed without any damage? or is necessity that they never be powered simultaneously?

Hey Shblay, what you do today, idiot?</p>

Ok, i'm gonna pipe here, but ONLY because your name is shwaggetyshfifty. I actually have never had both motors plugged in together. </p>

Here is a list to consider:</p>


1. Why?</p>

2. Even more why?</p>

3. As a rule of thumb, or a rule of common sense, you can't have both motors running unless you intentionally plug them in that way.</p>


The fast motor is the main drive shaft for the operation here. The end opposite the pully has a large flat disk with rubber edge. The slow motor has its own short drive shaft. When powered, this shaft pops up and makes contact with the edge of the disk. If I were to guess you would not be causing damage. The result would either be fast speed, or a speed slightly less then fast.
</p>

4. See 1 and 2
</p>

5. Shfiftyfive.

Re: leslie motor question



1.it's good to find someone else who appreciates group x and the hammond organ, as the popularity of either is usually tied to non-crossing age groups, however i grew up listening to bands like Uriah Heep, so i can say my age does not effect my opinion on the organ like most. and every account i've made in the last couple months on any website has been shwaggetyshfifty, because its NEVER taken. please try not to take it on any other forums and such on that note.
</p>

2. i need to take this into consideration because like previously stated, someone modded the leslie for another organ, and then proceeded to modify the b3 to a point where the 6 pin output was essentially dead and disconnected i imagine in the process of biamping or something i can't remember what the guy said(tho i wouldn't trust the guy, theres some things about the organ that suggest "WANNA-B"!! which is usually a c3 or a100 in a b cabinet, in this case, i think a b2 cab), and anyway i would imagine if i could keep one motor powered at all times and the other one powered on with a light switch, i could save myself the trouble of trying to wire a double poll double throw switch as originally the plan.</p>

3.even more why- thats just the way it is</p>

4.thanks for the help. i can almost never get a reply on any of my questions here.</p>

5. in the event of #4 could you give some insight to my thread about the trim capacitor on the b3?</p>

edit: turns out i was wrong about the previously stated part, that was on another thread i made today</p>
