Love it as-is, with one exception

VB3m is great. Sounds almost like my A100. I run it thru a Pro3T rotary, and it’s excellent. If you want more features get VB3-II of course, but the one thing I’d love to see ported from VB3-II to VB3m is the parametric EQ. I have just a limited frequency range that needs to be tamed when 3rd harmonic percussion is active, and it would be far better to do it in the app than via external EQ. I’d gladly pay another five bucks to get that upgrade.

Thanks for the August 2025 Update

The original and greatest organ. Sounds so authentic.Thanks to the dev for updating the ui and making it better looking. I can’t afford version 2 of VB3 at the moment, so thus is appreciate.

Fun and Functional

Just amazing. Nothing else like it. Always been a fan of the Apple GB organ but the flexibility and controls of the VB3m are on a completely other level.
