This knob controls the amount of modu-
lated signal being fed back into the input,
creating feedback. Higher amounts add
more resonance to the effect signal.
Tremolo/Pan Stereo (Wet only)
Tremolo and Panner create rhythmic
changes in signal amplitude. Tremolo
affects both channel’s amplitude simul-
taneously, while the Panner affects the
amplitude of each channel in an alternating
manner.
Tremolo/Pan Controls
Knob 1: Speed
Controls the modulation rate of the
Tremolo/Panner.
Knob 2: Depth
Controls the intensity of the volume ampli-
tude change.
Knob 3: Phase
Controls whether the amplitude change
occurs in both channels simultaneously
(Tremolo) or alternates between channels
(Panner).
Rotary Mono (Wet only)
Rotary speaker cabinets were designed
to provide a majestic vibrato/choir effect
for electronic theater and church organs.
The most well known rotary speaker is the
Leslie™ Model 122, which has two coun-
ter-rotating elements: a high-frequency
horn and a low-frequency rotor with slow
and fast speeds. The sound generated as
the spinning elements change speed is
truly magical. The swirling, spacious effect
is difficult to describe – but clearly recog-
nizable.
The Rotary effect is modeled after a
Leslie-style cabinet. The input signal is split
into high and low-frequency bands. The
rotation effect is created by a synchronized
combination of pitch shifting, tremolo, and
panning. Like the physical cabinet, the
high (horn) and low (rotor) frequencies
are “spun” in opposite directions. Horn
and rotor speeds are independent, and
designed with acceleration and decelera-
tion characteristics to simulate the inertia of
the original mechanical elements.
A virtual requirement for organ music,
Rotary also sounds remarkable with guitar
and electric piano rhythm parts. In fact,
these programs are great alternatives to
the Chorus and Tremolo effects for any
sound source.
Rotary Controls
Knob 1: Speed
Controls the modulation rate of both rotary
speakers. The lower frequencies rotate at
a slower speed than the high frequencies.
Knob 2: Doppler
Increases or decreases the Doppler pitch
effect that is created by the physics of a
rotating speaker.
Knob 3: Stereo Spread
Increases or decreases the stereo imaging
of the Rotary effect.
Vibrato Stereo (Wet only)
Vibrato is obtained by smoothly varying
the pitch of the signal just sharp and flat of
the original at a determined rate.
