The rebirth
of cool
Warbling and resonant, the Vox organ was one of the only ways to get hot new sounds onstage before synthesizers went mainstream.
Thanks to our TAE® technology, you can enjoy the Continental 300 in all its transistor organ glory, then take it places the original couldn’t go.
Going far beyond the capabilities of any sample set, Vox Continental V models the circuit behavior and every other nuance of the Continental 300, a rare and desirable dual-manual organ. We added an extended mode with more drawbars, and even let you get inside the machine to tweak its electronic quirks.

Whether retro is the main ingredient in your music or just a dash of spice you add, Vox Continental V pours on exactly as much flavor as you want.
True Organic Power
Why settle for generic organ patches for your projects? Use the same iconic sound of the instrument the original artists used!
A Full Organ Rig
VOX Continental V goes beyond faithful emulation. Expanded controls, a preset library, and even a built-in FX rig meets every production need.
Always Ready
Drop Continental V directly into your tracks with no hassle and minimal CPU impact. It’s like having Ray Manzarek on speed dial.
From England
to Italy
Vox is famous for guitar amps that defined the sound of the British Invasion. Tom Jennings saw the potential for keyboards that rocked just as hard.
Jennings had built home and church organs until the 1950s. His first portable keyboard was the Univox, a monophonic preset “synth” that mounted on a piano and gave the player extra instrument sounds. Jennings, designers Derek Underdown and Les Hills, and the Thomas organ company then teamed up with Italian manufacturer EKO to design the Continental whose sound we know from The Doors’ “Light My Fire,” The Animal’s “House of the Rising Sun,” “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” by Iron Butterfly, and so many more classics.

In the Box
We duplicated all the original controls and behaviors of the fabled Continental 300 for the faithful transistor organ experience.
Then we added guitar amp and rotary speaker modeling and vintage pedal FX. It’s the most perfectly authentic Vox experience you can have short of owning the real thing.

01. Hit Some Bars
Drawbars duplicate the single pipes, Roman-numeral blend tones, and waveform balancers of the original, and can be quickly MIDI-learned to your controller.
02. Command the Sound
Access both manuals and the bass pedals from a single MIDI controller or many with these quick setup tabs.
03. Kick Some Bass
A one-octave bass pedal board features its own drawbars and adjustable decay for being your own bass player.
04. Speak Brightly
Add that signature “ping” to the upper manual with adjustable harmonic percussion.
05. Pedal Down
Vox owners processed their instruments through pedals and so can you, with Flanger, Phase, Chorus, Analog Delay, Overdrive, and Wah.
06. Amped Up
If you had a Continental, you had an amp. Try our lovingly modeled cabinet options, or put a spin on it with an incredibly realistic Leslie simulator.
Beyond
Continental
Extended mode packs more of everything players loved about the Continental. Then, the Advanced Panel lifts the lid for customization - no soldering required!
After being ousted from his own company in 1967, Tom Jennings kept designing combo organs with more features. With one click, Continental V becomes the Vox that might have been.
Extended mode offers eight drawbars per manual and an additional sawtooth waveform for tonal control on par with a B-3.
Fine-tune the rate and depth of tremolo and vibrato. Your sound will never be static or boring!
State-of-the-art convolution technology reproduces the classic spring and plate reverbs often used with the Vox organ.
Tuning screws for each note’s generator dial in just the right amount of detuning for a completely authentic sound.
Select the Continental engine or the even rarer Jennings J70. Bring in hum and key contact randomness to simulate a Vox of any vintage!
