Billy86 35 Posted August 18 I’m interested in the sound of this instrument. Also sometimes called a melodium. Sound wise and functionally, kind of a cross between an accordion (the use of air bellows to generate sound) and a mini pipe organ. In a larger version, their also called pump organs— Neil Young plays a pump organ on his Unplugged album and it sounds really cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Saw that and wondered if the instruments that make up the hybrid instrument could be used separately, but I don’t think they can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the suggestion! Also, I was wrong about the Toontrack Hybrid Harp. You CAN access each instrument that comprises this hybrid instrument separately. So it essentially has a number of different and discrete instruments, including two Harmoniums. See the vid: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
