The OBL-2 allows standard Hammond consoles to be connected via a 1/4" output jack to an external amplification system. The box is made from heavy gauge anodized aluminum and easily mounts under the generator shelf or other convenient location. The unit has both an overall output and one that is low pass filtered. The low pass output is useful when using a bass amp to reinforce the organ low end. A level control is provided to allow the output signal to be adjusted to match the amplifier input requirements.

A great unit, easy to install, works great with the Neo Ventilator Leslie Simulator. We use them as an economical solution to providing a line out on many vintage Hammond Organs. We also have installed one on a new digital Hammond organ with a custom cable that we made. Saved thousands of dollars istead of installing a Leslie in a large church installation. Some use the low pass out to add more bass to their Hammond organ, for that deep earth shaking effect tat many like as they play the pedals. Here are the specs that Trek II gives for this product....

NOTE: Most commercial and musical instrument amplifiers are not designed for organ use and will not give the same sound quality as a Leslie or Hammond tone cabinet. However there are circumstances where connecting to an external amplifier is still desirable. These include temporary installations, rental instruments, and adding a bass amp to give the organ more low end power.
NOTE: Pre-amps in early console models (A, AB, AV, B, BA, BC, BCV, BV, C, CV, D, DV, and G) receive their DC operating voltage from the tone cabinet and will not produce an output if the tone cabinet is disconnected.
