time is tight

Trying to get a better handle on how to use my EH organ machine. Great potential but hard to handle with volume etc. Here is a recent effort on Booker T's classic tune. Any feedback appreciated.

The problem as far as I can tell is simply distortion, the organ sound is extremely distorted which probably means it is too loud at input.....so either ti=urn the volume down on the guitar itself (which should work) or on the organ machine (which I am not familiar with other than hearing about them). Also a little stereo separation could help, the clip sounded mono on my crappy computer speakers. Good luck.

Sorry I missed this one earlier. I agree with jtees4, it sounds too distorted and mono. The signal is too hot somewhere for sure. It sounds more like guitar than organ, sorry... I can also hear the pick attack. I wonder if it would sound more authentic if you plucked the chords with the fingers instead?

Thanks guys. Appreciate the honest feedback. I am determined to master this pedal but it's a bear. For example, the guitar's volume controls have very little impact until you get to a certain point and then volume disappears entirely. I will get it right but back to the drawing board. Thanks for taking the time.

Yeah, the "organ" sound is just too distorted. Maybe if you monkey around with the knobs enough you can get it smoother?
