Have you looked at the Electro Harmonix B9 or C9 pedals? There are YouTube videos that demonstrate how they sound.
You might coax out of the Kemper effects to somewhat simulate an organ, but I don't think you'll find anything very satisfying.
I put some organ-ish sound experiments in Rig Exchange awhile ago:
Touch Speed Rotary 2 (the below sound clip is using separate fast and a slow Rigs, instead of this one that changes speed by touch)
Surf Organ 1
VoxContinOrg
If you search for my user name in Rig Manager, you will find some other sounds, too.
This is the Bill Ruppert free rig pack.
Use a pitch shifter(s). In a different multifx modelling device I add a -12 and a +12 to get a basic organ sound. You can add +5 -7 to fatten it. Some phaser or swirling speaker can help give it some movement while reverb helps to smear out the sound. Using a Boss Slow Gear style fade in effect to remove the pick attack sound from the pitch shifted sounds helps alot.
The EHX Hog2 is very good at making organ sounds.
Guitartone Pls forgive me but I cannot find Bill‘s cathedral profile in the download area:
https://www.kemper-amps.com/downloads/10/Rig-PacksCould you pls. give me a hint where exactly to find? Thanks.
I think the Profiles are on Rig Exchange...search "Ruppert".
I think the Profiles are on Rig Exchange...search "Ruppert".
Unfortunaley not. It is not preinstalled, nor in the Rig Exchange (at least I couldn't find it with a search on "Ruppert"), nor in the downolad section. I finally found it with a search here (factory rigs reference list):
Quite confusing how Kemper provides their packs!
Thank you very much Guitartone for providing the video and ajbsmirnoff for the whole idea behind and paultsand cmbrowns for your help and ideas!
Here's the Chromatic pitch effect from Cathedral which does the heavy lifting. Choose a Fender clean amp from your collection. Pop your Chromatic pitch effect into a slot 1-4, . Set Voice 1 -12, voice 2 +12, experiment with the 'chords' Put some chorus [chef's kiss Ruppert !!] some reverb after it.
Stick to single strings or 2 note chords to avoid warbling.
Reading the above posts made me dig out mighty Hog2.
Yes. They're expensive (buy a used one).
Yes, Like alot of EHX digital pedals they are very 'digital noise to ground if you don't isolate them.
Yes, its huge. The downside is that they come with a terrible EXP pedal, which you need to swap out for literally anything else.
I've had the Hog - which is 90% as good as the Hog2. The Pog is probably just as good for the job at hand here. But its great at making FAT sounds, organ sounds, celeste. 12 string, bass, flute/piccolo, delicate angelic voices, demonic wails, its a whammy (add a decent EXP pedal), its a wah (exp pedal and the filter section), its Boss Slow Gear (envelope section). Its got great tracking, stores presets, and did I mention its huge ?
NB - if you do get one. Make sure the filter section has Freq all the way up, and Resonance all the way down, other wise you'll think its broken.
NB. If you have access to a Helix - I have 'poormans organ' and 'bigger organ on Line 6's CustomTone. And 'Celestial Menace' which uses dynamics to swap tween lower and higher registers and a Xenomorph fuzz to spoil your neighbours day.
The EHX synth pedal range is cool. I've got the Mel9. I'd like the String9 and Synth9.
Well. I live near a great guitar shop with a large 'used' section.
I picked up an EHX C9 pedal on the way home this week....... and its excellent. (although its just as noisy electrically as other EHX pedals needing good isolation). It has a nice mix of Hammond and other organs with nice varition with the Mod/Click control which do modulation and other effects depending on the preset.
Interestingly - stacking them seems top work just fine. The Mel 9 can get enough pitch detection from the C9 output to work.
