It is not for nothing that the Wersi organ is the preferred instrument of professional organists. This exclusive instrument offers today what is possible in sound quality and playing possibilities, and that with an intensity that simply thrills every creative music lover!

Via two large manuals with 76 keys, both velocity-sensitive and playable with Aftertouch, a velocity-sensitive full pedal with 25 keys and the intuitive control panel with the large central 13.3'' touch display, you conduct your orchestra, big band, jazz combo or rock group in real time while playing. Enjoy a musical experience that only an organ can offer - with the WERSI SONIC OAX800 Mother of Pearl White at its best!

The EASY PLAY concept

After switching on the instrument, only the most important controls are displayed. And everything in the same way as it is found on the instrument. At the top first the Total Preset, with which you can change everything with one keystroke. Then the Upper Manual, below that the Lower Manual, and at the very bottom Bass and Accompaniment. Tap a tone on the control panel and a page opens with the corresponding instruments. And just like on a modern smartphone, you can "advance" the stops. The same applies to the lower manual, the Bass and for the accompaniment section. You will be amazed that in EASY-MODE you can operate the SONIC without a manual! Tap a register briefly twice and another control panel will appear on the Display, but only the one you need at that moment. Just great to use and you enjoy the great sound of the instruments without having to struggle through big manuals. Of course, you can also switch the SONIC to professional mode if you want to layer more than three sounds. Then everything becomes more extensive - but is still no witchcraft. The new PROFI-MODE allows you to distribute up to 16 tones to the manuals and many other setting options.

Unique WERSI timbres

It's not just the large Display and ease of use that make the Sonic so impressive. It's the great sounds made possible by newly developed audio boards. Listen to the brass, the convincing grand piano, the choirs, the great strings with huge kettle drums in the low key range. The many cutting-edge synthesizer sounds are usually only found on the most expensive synthesizers. And of course, the fascinating organ sounds that can be operated via drawbars. What a treat to slowly pull them out and enjoy the change in organ sound. You can control special sound effects via the After Touch function, which is available on both manuals on the SONIC. Control z. B. the Vibrato of the pan flute by lightly after touching the key. Open the filter on synthesizer timbres or turn your trumpets into fantastic shake trumpets. You can't describe this - you just have to feel it.

WERSI Drawbars

Admittedly, nothing feels better than the drawbars of an organ! That "full" feeling when pulling them out... simply thrills every organ fan. The OAX system offers two independent drawbar systems that can be adjusted via mechanical drawbars. With the WERSI drawbar sound you play the classic WERSI sound and via the WERSI VB3 you are very close to the old electromechanical sound: yes it is the sound of the old mechanical sound wheels! Pull out one drawbar after the other and then switch the rotor to Slow or Fast - the sound will blow you away or better ... off the organ bench!

In addition to these two drawbar systems, there are over 100 tones of the legendary WERSI models from earlier times. These include analogue instruments like Helios and Galaxis, with the famous Klaus Wunderlich sound, drawbar timbres of the DX series and of course the drawbar timbres of the Spectra and Atlantis from the WERSI CD series.

Integrated synthesizer

A professional and very flexible synthesizer has been integrated into the WERSI SONIC. All important synthesis forms like analogue, with three oscillators, wavetable synthesis and the FM-Synthese are available. In addition, these synthesis forms can be mixed with each other and can still be expanded with samples. With over 50 effects, such as distortion, echo, chorus, filter or a compressor, the timbres get the final touch. This way, fat analogue brass, monophonic lead sounds, pad and motion sounds up to complex synth/electronic sounds are created. A total of over 400 modern synth tones are available. The integrated Arpeggiator automatically turns the pressed chord into complex tone sequences. By the way, the Arpeggiator always adopts the current tempo. So you can create fantastic soundscapes to a running dance style.

Fantastic grand piano sounds

Experience the natural and unmistakable sound of a great concert grand piano, whose variety of sounds covers all musical genres such as classical, jazz, musical and pop. So that you can achieve the entire sound spectrum from gentle pianissimo to powerful fortissimo, 6 dynamic layers plus an additional soundboard with a memory size of 1 gigabyte are available. An absolute grand piano experience on the new WERSI SONIC!

The tone colours of the electric pianos range from old Rhodes to modern electric pianos. Choose a soft, bell-like electric piano with a great chorus effect for a ballad or a groovy electric piano with the right groove for a pop song.

You can also achieve particularly impressive sound experiences by mixing a grand piano with a modern electric piano.

Fabulous strings

Whether moving film music, sophisticated classical compositions or emotional ballads - here you will find a symphony orchestra and a chamber orchestra with strings, brass and woodwinds and fantastic orchestral percussion at the touch of a button.

The tedious compilation of individual timbres is no longer necessary - finally, you can concentrate on the essentials. You will conduct and play your SONIC orchestra with much joy and enthusiasm!

Realistic choirs

The SONIC offers extremely realistic and expressive choir timbres. With the jazzy scat vocal timbres, your swing tracks will be a special experience. Or use the classical choirs, which can be wonderfully combined with fantastic strings to create a very special sound.

A church organ with the Agnus Dei choir will add a special sparkle to your Christmas music.

Or modern pop vocals for the currently popular current titles! In the SONIC you will find the right choir for your music.

Real accordion sounds

As soon as you select Accordion Live, an original - accordion register bar appears in Display. Switch from one register to the other, you will also hear the original switch click. And then the sounds! Unbelievable! All common accordion sounds can be found. Real sonorous Hohner Morino sounds, the beautiful double octave sound (4 feet with 16 feet) or a great sounding Supita accordion. In the famous French musette accordion, the individual choruses are slightly out of tune with each other, producing the lively floating musette sound. This makes it possible to play French accordion chansons or the world-famous Styrian button accordion sounds very effective. The Alpina accordion fits especially well to alpine music.

Furthermore, many fixed accordion tones are stored for all music directions.

SONIC Accompaniment Band

The SONIC accompaniment band works with a special transposition of the played chords. The result is musically outstanding and sounds fantastic.

But just as important for their band are the sound colours. The incredibly realistic drum grooves (realdrums) are real drum beats, recorded and saved in the recording studio with many microphones.

What would a backing band be without acoustic guitars, the electric guitars and an electric piano. Or get a brass section in your own band. With a WERSI SONIC all this is possible.

Of course, your backing band can also consist of a 16-track MIDI sequencer or a modern multimedia player.

Built-in Hi-Fi amplifiers

In the OAX 800, power amplifiers and speakers for Bass and mids are located in the bass console. The tweeter, on the other hand, are built into the top of the cabinet to the right and left of the music stand. Via the 2 x 120-watt stereo power amplifier and high-quality loudspeakers, the OAX 800 offers a pleasant, voluminous sound. If you want an even better sound, you are advised to connect two additional Vocalis speakers. They improve the sound considerably.

State-of-the-art hardware and software

A new audio board with excellent technical data was developed for the OAX system. This results in the clear and warm sound of the organ. WINDOWS 10 64bit and the powerful PC components such as a strong CPU, fast RAM and the SSD hard drive are the basis for a modern musical instrument designed for the future.

Repair service via internet

Thanks to the latest computer technology, with which all new Wersi organs are equipped, most faults can be repaired online. After consultation with you, our service department connects to your organ via the Internet and locates and repairs the fault. At the same time we often install the latest software.
