Free Vst Vox Continental

22.12.2020

If you were in a band in the '60s or '70s and couldn't afford and/or carry a Hammond B-3, you opted for an Italian transistor combo organ. One of the most famous of these is the Vox Continental, made famous on such hits as The Doors' 'Light My Fire,' The Animals' 'House of the Rising Sun,' and Elvis Costello's 'Pump It Up.' There are also a smattering of later tunes you might think are a Hammond but are actually a Vox, such as Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' 'Don't Do Me Like That.'

Since Vox is a Korg subsidiary, Korg would be in a great position to do some kind of retro-cool but modern-powerful re-issue, and that's exactly what they've done. Meet the new Vox Continental. If you're one of those organ-centric weekend warriors who can't bring too many keyboards to the gig and is frustrated you have to get your organ sounds from a stage piano, you're now going to delight at getting your stage piano sounds from an organ, because the new Vox is much more than an organ.

Another famous company build the Continental, whose organs were.

Not only does the new Continental nail the classic Vox sounds, but it also does Farfisa Compact (the other big transistor organ) and tonewheel (rhymes with 'jammin') organ tones, all controllable from its LED drawbar matrix. But wait, there's more. Korg has repurposed some engines from their flagship Kronos workstation to include serious grand pianos (SGX-2 engine), plus Rhodes, Wurly, and Clav sounds (EP-1 engine). They also included a complement of sounds from the AL-1 analog modeling engine in case you need some wormy, squirty synths, then a smattering of PCM-based sounds in all categories courtesy of the HD-1 engine.

Bottom line: For live performance, you've got a ton of what matters about the Kronos, in a 61- or 73-key package that looks like you stole it off a bandstand set from an 'Austin Powers' movie. And in case you think the red color means it rips off another company that rhymes with Korg, two things: The Vox Continental was red first, and this red is warmer with more yellow in it.

I'm personally kind of excited, because I saw a non-hooked-up prototype this past NAMM show, and thought it might be too narrow a specialist of a machine. As it turns out, it's something that can do full 'bottom keyboard' stage-piano duties with modern sound fidelity while projecting a credibly retro image. Now, we just need one with quilted leather tuck-and-roll upholstery on the outside. They could call it the Continental Flying Spur.

The Continental will be available this month (September 2017) at $1,999 for the 61-key model and $2,199 for 73 keys. Here's Korg's teaser video.

VOX CONTINENTAL

The Vox Continental is probably the most famous of the 'new breed' of transistor organs that started emerging in the early '60s.

Previously, organs were built around tone-wheel technology. This undoubtedly created a fantastic (classic) organ sound but made the instruments heavy and unwieldy (and expensive).

With the advent of transistors, it was possible to create lightweight, portable organs.... in theory.

In practice, the majority sounded thin and weak by comparison. However, that sound in itself appealled to the new 'surf' and 'beatnik' music that was evolving at the time. The portability also appealled to groups.

The Vox Continental was unusual in that it actually sounded quite good.... not cheap and cheesy like so many of its rivals.

Although possibly better known for their amplifiers (the legendary AC30, for example), Vox actually started life as a manufacturer of 'traditional' home and church organs. With the emerging new 'micro' technology of transistors, they saw the possibility to use this technology in their products.

The Vox Continental was the first of these (1962) and had drawbars to create sounds. The first three white ones allowed you to adjust the levels of the 16', 8' and 4' registers whilst the two maroon drawbars offered a sine wave and a reedy sawtooth wave. The fourth white drawbar was labelled 'IV' (known as the 'Frank IV' - dunno why!) and had the effect of all three main drawbars and the 'Sine' drawbar on their full setting.

Below these were the mains switch and a switch to activate a simple vibrato effect. Although the vibrato wasn't variable in any way, below the panel were trimmer pots which allowed you to set your preferred rate and depth - more adventurous players had these brought out on controls so that these parameters could be set more freely.

Of course, one distinctive feature of the Continental was the inverse keyboard. This styling served no purpose other than to make the thing look more distinctive.

Another distinctive feature of the instrument was its striking, chrome 'Z-frame' legs - this thing just looked cool compared with the stuffy wooden organ cabinets of the time!

Vox went on to make a dual manual Continental and other variations on the theme. Later on, they produced the Jaguar but many claim that this is a poor substitute for a Continental.

The Vox Continental's most famous user was probably Ray Manzarek of the Doors but prior to this, it was also used by UK organist Alan Price (The Animals), the Dave Clarke Five, the Tornados and countless others.

Although lacking the body and depth of a 'proper' tonewheel organ, the Continental has a strong and distinctive sound and still has many devotees today.
