163 VALVES. 72 NOTE POLYPHONIC.
The Hammond Novachord was first put into production in 1938. A 72-note polyphonic beast, it used 163 valves to power its oscillators.
Neither piano nor organ, it was misunderstood and was not the success it could have been.
However, its eerie, ethereal sound became a mainstay of ï¬lm and television soundtrack production.
Gone with the Wind, The Maltese Falcon, Rebecca, House of Frankenstein, The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone all feature Novachord as part of their soundtrack.
THE KONTAKT INSTRUMENT
THE FUTURE SOUND OF 1939
No lover of vintage analogue can set eyes on those massive teardrop switches for the first time and keep her composure. Like Darth Vader's door handles, they control a wide range of synthesis parameters on the Novachord. The names may not be familiar, but conventional filters, LFOs and envelopes are all here in some form or another.
