The Vox Continental is a transistorised combo organ that was manufactured between 1962 and 1971 by the British musical equipment manufacturer Vox. It was designed for touring musicians and as an alternative to the heavy Hammond organ. It supports drawbars in a similar manner to the Hammond, and has distinctive reverse-coloured keys. The sound is generated by a series of oscillators, using a frequency divider to span multiple octaves.

  • Die Vox Continental ist eine transistorisierte elektronische Orgel (Combo-Orgel) des britischen Herstellers Vox, eingeführt im Jahre 1962. Typisch für die „Connie“ war ihr dünner, heller Klang. Konzipiert wurde die Orgel als ein transportables Instrument, um Schwergewichte wie die Hammond-Orgel zu ersetzen. Dies wurde nicht erreicht, doch spielten in den 1960er Jahren viele Musiker eine Continental und machten sie zu einer der beliebtesten und bekanntesten Combo-Orgeln. (de)
  • Il Vox Continental è un combo-organ (cioè un organo a transistor di dimensioni contenute usato negli sessanta/settanta dai complessi musicali), progettato dalla ditta inglese Jennings Musical Industries e commercializzato nel 1962 dalla Vox, una società di strumenti musicali, amplificatori ed effetti elettronici. Noto per il suo suono sottile quanto penetrante e acido, fu progettato nelle intenzioni per essere usato da musicisti che si dovevano spostare frequentemente, eliminando i problemi di trasporto dei pesanti organi elettromeccanici, come ad esempio l'Hammond B-3 e simili.

  • Vox Continental — транзисторный комбо-орган, который был представлен в 1962 году. Известный своим ярким, но тонким, с придыханием, звуком, «Конни», как он был нежно назван, был разработан для использования гастролирующими музыкантами. Он был также предназначен для замены тяжёлых органов с фоническим колесом, таких как почитаемый Хаммонд В3. (ru)
