Donald Leslie. Donald James Leslie (Born: April 13, 1911, in Danville, Illinois â Died: September 2, 2004, in Altadena, California) created and manufactured the Leslie speaker that refined the sound of the Hammond organ and helped popularize electronic music.
A musician controls the Leslie speaker by either an external switch or pedal that alternates between a slow and fast speed setting, known as chorale and tremolo. The speaker is named after its inventor, Donald Leslie. Leslie began working in the late 1930s to get a speaker for a Hammond organ that had a closer emulation of a pipe or theatre organ, and discovered that rotating sound gave the best effect.
