I had in the early 80's the good old Farfisa (until my brother sold it 
without asking). What could be the best way to synthezise that sound in 
csound? I think it was just UJT-transistor oscillator.

thanks

its a pretty simple sound - i would think additive synthesis would be fine
(i organized a performance of reich's "four organs" a while back and we played on cheapo $50 keyboards and it sounded pretty authentic, imho!)

thanks, just have to grab from the Doors album a sample of Ray 
Manzarek's Farfisa and look at the spectrum.
