| The
Hammond X77
Flagship Hammond Console, which featured alongside the Hammond X66 and
HX100.
Snip from brochure:
"The sound of the
X77 is as modern as its styling. You will thrill to the excitement of
the sound created by the exclusive X77P Leslie Tone cabinet. Hammond X77
features include harmonically enriched tone-bars, pre-set percussion
tabs, super quint, rhythm section, string bass and arpeggiator (for
instant arpeggios). Each keyboard, pedal tones, reverberation and
percussion can be independently directed through the multi channel X77P
Leslie Tone cabinet."
