ROTARY Page

The Rotary effect simulates the classic rotating speaker popular with guitarists and

keyboard players. It is designed to mimic the characteristics of the mechanical rotating
speaker with added versatility afforded by DSP.

ESCRIPTION

The ROTARY SPEAKER On/Off parameter determines whether the Rotary
effect is active or bypassed for the current preset.

Note that even when this parameter is set to OFF, the rotary effect is still
present, meaning that it will still sound like you're playing through a rotary
speaker cabinet, but with no rotary action. When turned off, the sound will vary
as the rotaries will not always come to rest in the same position, just like in a real
rotary cabinet. (Off, On)

The ROTATION SPEED parameter switches between the SLOWSP and
FASTSP setting. (Slow, Fast)

The SLOW SPEED parameter sets the slow rotation speed. (The horn and rotor
will rotate at slightly different speeds.) (0 to 100)

The FAST SPEED parameter sets the fast rotation speed. (0 to 100)

The ACCELERATION parameter adjusts the length of time it takes to reach the
SLOW SPeed or FAST SPeed setting of both the horn and rotor. (The horn will
accelerate faster than the rotor). (0 to 100)

The ROTATION BALANCE parameter adjusts the relative level of the rotor
(lows) vs. the horn (highs). (Rotor to Horn)
