  • Wurlitzer/Baldwin Organ headphone line out to keyboard amplifier

    So Im aware that some of these Electric organs have headphone jacks in the back, but I am unsure of what kind of output it has. Im assuming they have high enough output to push headphones obviously, but is it too much for a keyboard amplifier? Is it too hot for a line out?

    Electronic organs (the term 'electric' really means tonewheel Hammond, and electrostatic organs) will have headphones outputs which are sometimes mono (earlier organs) and sometimes stereo (1970's onwards). The level is too hot for a line out, so you'd need to pad it down. If it's stereo, you'll also need to mix the two outputs with resistors, which could themselves form part (maybe all) of the padding.
    It's not what you play. It's not how you play. It's the fact that you're playing that counts.
