Hammond SK2 stage keyboard

General

The Hammond SK2 Stage Keyboard is a remarkable instrument. With two 61-key keyboards and an expansive arsenal of high-quality, very usable sounds, this is an absolute dream of an instrument for many keyboard players. The Hammond SK2 is everything you'd want from a Hammond - the renowned JazzTimes magazine showered it with praise. The VASE III sound generator can create 96 digital tonewheels that emulate the sound of the original electromechanical Hammond organs. You can't have a Hammond without a Leslie, which is why you'll find 8 professional speaker modes, so that you'll always have the right Leslie sob or scream at your disposal.

Hammond SK2: sounds

It's probably quite clear that the SK2 has much more to offer than just Hammond organs - as it offers both VOX and Farfisa sounds, and even a complete pipe organ. Furthermore, it features 37 High Def sounds, such as various pianos (like the Yamaha C-7 and CP70), Rhodes, Wurlitzer, harpsichord, orchestral sounds and various synth sounds. The SK2 can be personalised by downloading additional free voices from the online library. With 100 user presets, you'll have plenty of room for your own (customised) sounds, which is perfect for eclectic performances. It even supports MIDI and features a USB connector for added storage capacity.

Two keyboards

Both die-hard organ players and cover band keyboardists know that one keyboard often won't cut it. Of course, the SK2's 'real' Hammonds have two manuals, so that you won't have to simplify any organ parts. In band settings, the SK2 also offers virtually endless possibilities: an organ on top and a piano on the bottom, or a Hammond on the bottom and wind instruments on top, whatever suits the song. This makes the SK2 a perfect portable solution for all your keyboard needs. The Hammond SK2 offers that true Hammond soul with a modern twist.
