HX5.5 (HX3 mk5) is the follow-up model of the well-known HX3 mk4 board. While maintaining size and cost, it offers higher performance and more flexibilty by using a larger 6th generation XILINX FPGA (3 times more gates than 3rd Generation FPGA on HX3.4). Connectors are mostly compatible with HX3 mk4, so HX3.5 will be a drop-in replacement for many applications.

As an option (extended licence required), the new HX3 RealOrgan engine is capable of emulating all electromagnetic organs including H100, combo organs, several concert organs of the 70s and 80s like Böhm Orchester and Wersi Helios. This implies up to 15 harmonics, up to 12 drawbars per manual with individual mixtures, including phasing rotor (WersiVoice), mechanical and electronic keying available simultaneously. ADSR envelope available on all drawbars, also H100 percussion and "Harp Sustain". New tone generator switchable from tonewheel to TOS (top octave synthesizer) or single note mode, loadable generator waveforms for "cheesy" combo organs as well as fully fledged concert organs.

In many respects, HX3.5 is compatible with the older HX3.4 board (most peripherals, header pinout, mechanical dimensions). However, there are additional connectors, also the connector lettering has changed. A new Editor application is providing access to the vastly increased HX3.5 parameter count.

First lot of HX3.5 boards have been delivered with two obsolete USB data line damping resistors '''R11 and R17''' in place, value 22 Ohms (22R marking, SMT 0805 size). Please replace both with '''zero Ohm resistors or solder blob'''. R11 and R17 can be found near SAM5504 DSP. Send us your board for a free repair if you don't want to do this for yourself.

With these resistors in place, you may experience USB communication problems (especially when using USB on HX3.5 Extension Board), and probably HX3.5 will not be recognized when using a USB hub. If the latter is the case, your device defitely belongs to this particular lot.

Preface

Features

HX3.5 (HX3 mk5) is the follow-up model of the well-known HX3 mk4 board. While maintaining size and form factor, it offers higher performance and more flexibilty by using a larger 6th generation XILINX FPGA (3 times more gates than 3rd Generation FPGA on HX3.4). Connectors are mostly compatible with HX3 mk4, so HX3.5 will be a drop-in replacement for many applications.

As an option (extended licence required), the new HX3 mk5 engine is capable of emulating all electromagnetic organs including H100, combo organs, several concert organs of the 70s and 80s like Böhm Orchester and Wersi Helios. This implies up to 15 harmonics, up to 12 drawbars per manual with individual mixtures, including phasing rotor (WersiVoice), mechanical and electronic keying available simultaneously. ADSR envelope available on all drawbars, also H100 percussion and "Harp Sustain". New tone generator switchable from tonewheel to TOS (top octave synthesizer) or single note mode, loadable generator waveforms for "cheesy" combo organs as well as fully fledged concert organs.

In many respects, HX3.5 is compatible with the older HX3.4 board (most peripherals, header pinout, mechanical dimensions). However, there are additional connectors, also the connector lettering has changed. An Editor application (part of the HX3.5 Manager application) provides access to the vastly increased HX3.5 parameter count.

HX3.5 components are meant to be installed by a skilled technician. Basic IT knowledge is mandatory since software has to be installed and configurated in some cases.
