Monarch of electronic organs, the rich sounding B3 has been a staple of jazz, gospel, rock, reggae and R&Bβnot to mention pro studios everywhereβfor over a half century. Its electromagnetic tonewheel design gave it a beefy quality not found on later transistor organs. The Arturia B-3 V Organ includes an authentic rotary speaker and an array of stomp boxes, plus inspiring updates like analog circuit mods and drawbar modulation for new animated and syncopated effects.
Majestic sound
No other organ captured the hearts of keyboardists, spanning so many genres and years. It had the subtlety for jazz at the hands of artists like Jimmy Smith, Joey Defrancesco and John Medeski. It had the grace for gospel, as demonstrated by Elbernita βTwinkieβ Clark and Cory Henry. It had the energy to drive the reggae behind the likes of Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff, and the soul of James Brown and Sly Stone. Most visibly, it had the raw power to hold its own in a rock world as diverse as ELP, Santana, Yes, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, The Allman Brothers, and Blood, Sweet and Tears.
Whether youβre playing solo, in a group, or in a mix, Arturiaβs B-3 V lets you cover the organ parts for any genre using the sound and feel of the real thing.
Unmatched authenticity
There are organs and there are B3s. Then there are B3 emulations and Arturiaβs B-3 V. Where most other attempts are based on samples that only capture some of the qualities, Arturia created the B-3V using the same critically acclaimed modeling technology that distinguishes the entire V Collection of classic instruments. The put that same attention to detail into the included rotary speaker as well.
