Cherry Audio Novachord User Guide - 1
The Hammond name is invariably associated with the tonewheel organs that
changed the face of rock and jazz keyboards, but Hammond made a number
of other not-exactly-organ keyboard instruments. The most ambitious of
these by far was the Novachord. Released in 1939, it was a failed product in
its day, because like many other forward-looking inventions, it was so far
ahead of its time that customers didn't know what to make of it. For all
intents and purposes, the Novachord was the world's first fully-polyphonic
"divide-down" synthesizer, making use of the now-familiar tone generation
system used in endless organs and string machines. It also included
embryonic versions of analog synthesizer-style filter and envelope
generators. Unfortunately, the aforementioned "what the heck is this thing"
factor, its unstable room-heating 163 vacuum tubes combined with its huge
weight (500 lbs!), and ultimately, a materials shortage at the start of WWII,
brought Novachord production to a halt in 1942 with around 1000 produced.
These days, precious few have survived, and even fewer remain in working
order. This is a shame, because the Novachord makes a sound like no other
instrument - a sort of haunting and vibey "old film" tonality - particularly
when swamped in spring or tape echo. In fact, years later, the Novachord
found new life when used in 50s and 60s sci-fi film soundtracks.
