1. INTRODUCTION
GSi BURN is a digital simulator of the "rotary" effect as that of the famous rotary amplifiers from Leslie mod. 122 and 147
and similar, dedicated to electromagnetic organs and their simulators, but can also be used with modern keyboards as
well as electric guitars, and is also a versatile multi-effects with MIDI control. The presence of a MIDI interface, an
alphanumeric display and a non-volatile memory to save the preset make the BURN a tool that perfectly integrates with
any modern set-up for both live and the studio.
In order to simulate the famous "doppler" effect of the rotary speakers, the BURN takes advantage of a
powerful microprocessor that runs at 6,4 MIPS and processes the digital signal at a 24 bit resolution,
granting a clean sound and a dynamic range of well over 96 dB.
The distortion effect, much desired from musicians all over the world, is obtained by
means of a true vacuum tube and a special circuitry that recreates all the sonic
character of both the preamplifier and the final amplifier of a rotary speaker like the
famous Leslie 122 and Leslie 147.
