Can anyone tell me how to get a Jimmy Smith type organ sound for playback? None of the existing options on either Garritan or Smartmusic Soft Synth are anywhere close.

Let's start with SmartMusic Softsynth. Try the Percussion Organ Sound. That's a drawbar sound that is about as close as you'll get. I'm not sure there's a way to get the Leslie Speaker tremolo, however.

P.S.: The attached is a quick demo of the SoftSynth Percussion Organ. Disclaimer: "Lame composition. For demo purposes only".
P.P.S.: The additional demo is with Garritan. The sound is Percussive Organ.
