The Legacy of Rotary Speakers
The rotary speaker effect, with its distinctive Doppler pitch shift and swirling modulation, has been a staple in music since the 1940s. The Leslie speaker, originally designed for use with Hammond organs, utilized a rotating horn and woofer to create a unique three-dimensional sound. This effect, often described as a "chorusing" or "tremolo" effect, quickly gained popularity and became synonymous with the sound of the Hammond organ. Over time, the rotary effect found its way into recordings by artists like the Beatles, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer, and Soundgarden, solidifying its place as a classic effect.
Rotary Chorus in a Pedal
The JHS 3 Series Rotary Chorus captures the essence of this classic effect in a compact and user-friendly pedal format. With three simple controls—Volume, Intensity, and Speed— can easily dial in a wide range of swirling, pulsating tones. The Volume knob controls the overall output level of the pedal, while the Intensity knob adjusts the depth of the modulation. The Speed knob lets control the rate of the modulation, from slow and subtle to fast and intense. A toggle switch adds a "Room" effect, simulating the ambience of a real Leslie speaker cabinet in a room, adding depth and dimension to the sound.
Versatility for Any Instrument
While the rotary effect is often associated with keyboards, the JHS 3 Series Rotary Chorus is a versatile tool that can be used with a variety of instruments. Guitarists can use it to add swirling textures to clean tones, create psychedelic leads, or thicken up rhythm parts.
