B4 II

The B4 combines the classic and robust tonewheel organ and rotating speaker sound with the convenience of software. The B4 software organ broke new ground when it was released in 2000 and was an instant success. It reproduces the sound of the legendary B3 and its rotary speaker cabinet with unmatched accuracy. Its expressiveness and immediate playability continues to amaze even the most experienced organ players.

The B4 II raises the bar considerably by generating a much wider sonic range and a far richer and even more authentic sound.


The B4 combines the classic and robust tonewheel organ and rotating speaker sound with the convenience of software. The original B3 organ set many standards with its beefy sound and unique interface.
