I wanted to compare Leslie simulation of the Strymon Mobius with the Neo Ventilator for Hammond organ and decided to do it as a blind test.
I dialed in the settings given in the Ventilator manual as being "an average" Leslie in terms of high/low speed, ramp up time, etc. and then I tried to mimic the settings as closely as possible on the Mobius. Afterwards I had to tweak the settings for microphone positioning and balance between top and bottom on both units to try to get them as close as possible. I'm surprised how similar they sound. What do you think?
Sorry for any sloppy playing. I've been playing a real organ for less than a year and playing pedals is still something I struggle with, but it sure is fun :)

This was a cool comparison... I wish more reviewers would try to make it blind like this. I actually got this one right!

In a band context, i feel A would cut through a bit more. I like both but slightly prefer A.

"A" for effort but so confusing the way you executed this. Arbitrary switching of channels between A and B, along with inconsistent lengths of play time and performance content. And honestly, what were you even doing pressing those buttons like that? Were you switching between slow and fast speeds? It was utterly unclear what the purpose of that was. It just added to the confusion. In any event A sounded MUCH flatter and less three a dimensional than B. I guessed right in spite of the confusion.

Thanks for this! I liked B a little better than A. B sounded slightly fuller and more stereo spacious.

Musical instrument comparisons should always be done this way. Congratulations for this fabulous idea !! By cons, I am very surprised looking at the solution, it will influence my future purchase.

I will say on guitar the mobius is quite more lively than that.

B is the ventilator. Between the two, when comparing which on better to emulate a leslie, it is obvious the ventilator, way faaaar much better than the mobius. But if you use the ventilator for guitar and compare it with the mobius, I believe the mobius will have the edge both sound and possibilities

Indeed, I like the sound of B much more!
