Nice but it won't change my life as much as I thought it would...

Sounds best to me when I have my signal split and straight signal into one amp, Vent into the other as opposed to the stereo Vent signal into both amps. This might change as I experiment more with it again.

It is not as big as I thought it was which is a good thing.

The power unit sucks.

The power unit does suck which is why I ditched it. Be sure to try it in keyboard mode. IIRC it sounded better than guitar mode. Also mess with the Hi/Lo gain in both modes.

Did you replace it with anything else?

It can be powered with 12V DC 300ma as well but it has the opposite tip- negative I think...

I wrote Michael Molenda at Guitar Player some time ago to have a shoot-out or "Battle of The Leslie Pedals to no avail.

Bottom line: who can lay claim to the best rotary/Leslie tone on a pedal?
Neo? DLS RotoSim? Roto Choir? Option 5 Destination Rotation? Line 6 Pod HD series? H&K Rotosphere?

Where do we go from here? Yikes!
