HX3 in XB-2 Kit

Beitrag von Eriknie »

I've just bought a defect XB-2 to install the HX3 kit.
Is the kit available for ordering on the 15 of March? I hope it could be earlier, as I need my Hammond for a gig at the end of March.

After reading the documentation I still have some questions:

- Is there an option to use the modified XB-2 to send program-changes?
- Is the XB-2 Midi output still sending out velocity?
- Can I still update the firmware of this module?
- I have an FTDI cable, what are the connections on the board?
- Will there be a stereo Leslie implementation?

It seems a logical upgrade to buy a Vent.

How big will the quality increase be?
Is it possible to control it via the buttons from the XB-2?

Sorry for the questions in English, you can respond in German, I have no problem reading it.
Thanks in advance for helping me!
Erik

Is there anyone with some answers?
I'm going to buy a pretty expensive module from a small company with not that much info from external sources.
Also no real documentation (only a rough description in a web-page), I need to now if i can use the updated XB-2 as a midi-controller.

- It would be great if the drawbars are send-out via midi, so i can use them for controlling other modules.
- What can be settings in the menu of the XB2 kit?

I'm thinking about buying a mini organ vent and order the non-leslie Kit, but there is no real demo to check how much I gain with this.

I hope that I can get some pre-sale info and answers to me questions in the previous post.

I really like the demo's and am very eager to buy the kit!!!!
Thanks!

Could you also answer some of my questions? I would really appreciate that.
With the new Leslie and Scanner vibrato, I can most probably skip the Vent -> wow!

Thanks in advance, my XB-2 is waiting!

Erik

There is a change on the webpage, but it is not clear to me how long it will take to get one.

====
XB-2-Einbausatz komplett: Nicht auf Lager oder wird für Sie angefertigt
Still, you are able to put it in the 'warenkorb'

The XB-2-Einbausatz komplett, ohne Leslie is not available and you can not put it in the 'warenkorb', strange as this seems to be only a difference in software...
====

So, what to expect for delivery time if I'm going to buy the full kit?
It is serious money! Any update on availability, new features?
I hope you can also answer some of my questions

I still hope that I can get and install the HX3 in my XB3 quickly and use it!

Thanks!

Hi
The diffenrence between:

XB-2-Einbausatz komplett or XB-2-Einbausatz komplett, ohne Leslie

is ONLY the Software option
complete : with Leslie simulation
complete ohne Leslie : without Leslie simulation.

but in second case You can buy later the software-key for Leslie simulation

Both variations are in moment not available because we wait for PCB board delivery and in fact of this we can´t
buildt up any XB2 kits in moment

If You "put it in Warenkorb" it´s like a marker for us how many kits must be buildt up at once when PCB boards arrive from board producer.

Be shure if You want the items quickly we also want to get naked PCB Boards from board producer quickly as possible.

We also have to wait , that´s the reason for exsiting notice : " in moment not available" on shop site

Thanks for your response!

I hope Carsten can give some answers on delivery time and on my previous questions.
I willing to take the risk to buy this board and install it myself, but need some more info before paying via the site, i hope you understand this.

Regards,
Erik
