I frequently use a midi accordion to control the Korg PA800. This video shows Jon Hammond using the midi accordion with a B3 and playing the bass parts with the accordion buttons.

Something a little different. He stops by the Philly area now and again and does promos/concerts for the local Hammond Organ Center.
Ciao,
Jerry

Thanks Jerry, I really enjoyed that. MIDI has really opened up so many possibilities, it surprising that it took so long for the accordion-to-Hammond thing to happen.

I even went to Danny's link and a few other Jon Hammond clips. I wasn't too familiar with Jon's sound before now - not bad at all. He doesn't seem to change registrations much or even use much, if any Leslie, but the grooves are good. Again, thanks much.
