-Quick Start Setup-
1. Connect a ¼” speaker cord from your amplifier’s output jack to the speaker ¼” jack on the
back of the SRV-112.
2. Connect the ¼” TRS cord between the speed control pedal and “Control Pedal” input on the
front panel of the SRV-112. (Cord and pedal are supplied)
3. Set up your Guitar and amplifier as you normally would, then turn your amplifier on.
4. Set the slow, fast, and transition knobs straight up, then turn on the SRV-112.
5. Press the footswitch to select desired speeds.
-Sound, what to expect-
In many instances the SRV-112 can serve as the only speaker, both rotary and stationary.
When in complete stop, an optical sensor stops the rotor consistently facing forward
providing sound similar to a 2 X 12 stationary cabinet.
• Quality of sound will depend on a good guitar and amplifier combination, the SRV-112 will
provide the lush, three dimensional, room filling rotary sound. When the SRV-112 is rotating,
sound will radiate from the front and from the sides.
• Volume The perceived volume will be less than that of a stationary speaker cabinet facing you
because the sound is “spun” around the room, facing you directly about 40% of the time.
• Stopped When the SRV-112 is in stop mode, the LED sensor stops the rotor facing forward so
the perceived volume is more like that of a stationary speaker cabinet.
• Reflections Rotary sound is most impressive when reflecting walls and ceilings are present.
An outside venue with no reflecting walls or ceiling would sound the least impressive.
-Control Panel-
• Pedal connection On the left is the ¼” input for the speed control pedal. A 15 foot TRS cord
is supplied, a longer cord or extension (up to about 50 feet) can be used.
• Rotor indicator The LED blinks with the speed of the drum when in slow or fast mode. When
stop is pushed on the control pedal, the rotor will coast to a complete stop facing forward and
the LED will remain lit.
• Slow Set this speed first. A range of rich chorus sounds can be adjusted with this speed control.
“Min” is the slowest position; it does not go to zero.
• Fast Sets a range of higher speeds producing the rich “throb” associated with rotary speakers.
“Min” position adds no speed increase to the slow speed setting. Moving the knob towards
“Max” adds speed to the slow speed setting. The fast speed setting is added to the slow
speed setting when the speed button LED is illuminated on the control pedal.
• Transition is the time it takes to go from slow to fast/fast to slow. “Max” is the fastest time
while “Min” is the longest time.This is a very useful effect, you can step on the footswitch for
speed change and walk away while playing and the transition is taking place.
