Still incredibly cool though - I miss my '62 Custom 440 sometimes... They made tone cabinets that were their attempt to bypass the Leslie patent, their stereo vibrato with the speakers facing oppisite sides of the cabinet. Works pretty well.

Yep, doesn't exist. Totally hypothetical at this point, and doubtful if it would work at all. In other words, sounds like I need to actually try it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vteckid22 Posted December 19, 2006 Members Share Posted December 19, 2006 Somehow strap a speaker to a stationary excercise bike, and pedal as you play! Or maybe that Boss RT-20 pedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members comfortablynumb Posted December 19, 2006 Members Share Posted December 19, 2006 The Leslie sim on the Digitech EX7 sounds wonderful. Very organ-like. Plus the speed is foot controllable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old 440 is the third one down: http://www.vibroworld.com/magnatone/440.html Also the M35 and the slave and the PA from that period are mine. Solid state and in need of major TLC on the power amps, but still freakishly cool and stereo. The 440 rules. That period was their peak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mike McLenison Posted December 20, 2006 Members Share Posted December 20, 2006 The Line6 RotoMachine is excellent and realistic. Elliot Easton uses one and he is a big Beatles fan. I read a review on the Boss unit, and they claimed that it was hard to get a clean sound out of it. You can't beat the RotoMachine for the price; -and for live work, I doubt you'd be able to tell the difference between it and other excellent Leslie simulators. Oh, and yes, I've got one. It's a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members us2bslim Posted December 20, 2006 Members Share Posted December 20, 2006 I've used the following: Motion Sound AR112 Sidewinder combo (real deal rotating drum)Lexicon MPX200 and MPX550 Line 6 RotomachineH&K RotosphereOption 5 Destination RotationArion SCH1T Rex BetaVibe The Motion Sound is the bench mark. It is awesome and is more about the feel of the sound bouncing off of the different parts of the room. Very seductive. The lexicon's in stereo were my next favorites. The Rotomachine is the best for the money. If you are going for a pedal, then I like the Rotosphere and Betavibe best, although they are a little bit different. The SCH1 is a cool chorus, but it didn't sound like a leslie to me. I love the Destination Rotation, but ONLY in a dedicated stereo setup. One out is the "horn" out and the other is the "drum". The bass and treble are attenuated accordingly, whether the pedal is engaged or not. If you plan on this to begin with its great, but otherwise, its a pain.

Members la0tsu Posted December 20, 2006 Members Share Posted December 20, 2006 If you run, or are willing to run a stereo rig, I highly recommend the Dunlop Univibe Stereo Chorus. It's the least artificial sounding chorus I've heard, with a bunch of different but usable tones on tap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with ya there -- with all the debate on the AM, FM/doppler, phasing, etc behaviors that "make the sound", I think the 'dynamic ambience' (ie the interaction of the source with the ambient environment) is really a where a lot of electronic solutions just miss out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
