16' Pedal DB has higher DB mixed in with it

[nordym]

On the Hx-3 Expander, firmware 3.83, I've just noticed that the 16' Pedal Drawbar has either 5 1/3' or 8' mixed in with it.

Can we get this sorted out please.

Thanks,

As only a couple of Hammonds had more than two drawbars for the pedals (e.g. H100) I was surprised that the HX3 included a 5 1/3 option on the expander itself. The default seems to be around 50% so you could try turning it off on the module or via the editor. I play mine through a real Leslie and the bass sound is virtually identical to my B3. I noticed that the 5 1/3 is more prominent when used with the 8' drawbar. Overtones on the 16' are more noticeable in the lowest octave.

In same matter it is realized in HX3
So You never can hear a clean 16 or 8 foot drawbar either at a real Hammond or at HX3
