Massimo Caldonazzo in Rome has started a FPGA based Hammond clone project. On this (distorted) video, Riccardo Fassi and Marco Quagliozzi plays the soon-to-be-released baby. Sadly, the video shooting was done with a mono smartphone, in a very adventurous mood with wrong level settings ad several crude distortions. That's is: a sneak preview of the machine. Maybe, in a next meeting with our usual recording equipment, it will be possible to fully evaluate the sound quality of the Maxcal clone. The third keyboard drives a Dominion MFB synthesizer encapsulated in the main body of the instrument. Many thanks to Riccardo Fassi and Marco Quagliozzi for playing, Massimo Caldonazzo for engineering and Attilio De Simone for video shooting.
