Manufacturer Part #:
USEDROTOSPHERE1
Used Hughes & Kettner Tube Rotosphere MK 1 in Very Good condition. There are a few signs of wear, some velcro along the bottom, though everything functions as it should, see photos for details. Tube-driven Rotary Speaker sim, perfect for guitar or keyboards (featuring a switch on the back for either) for slight vibrato to full blown swirling madness! Comes with original power supply. Feel free to contact us with any questions!
Here's some info from Hughes & Kettner: "Music history has been written with tube-driven Leslies. These original rotary-speaker cabinets with their tube amplifiers and unusual effects were standard equipment of the most popular musicians and bands for the longest time.
Only a few of these originals have survived to the present day. Now history is repeating itself. The Leslie effect is again very much in demand by guitarists and keyboard players who want to breathe some real life into their digital world.
Clearly, nothing proved better than the original. Numerous attempts at purely digital simulation were made, but so far none of them sounded quite real.
We know!!!
In the Hughes & Kettner Rotosphere, the complex manner in which tones were generated in the original Leslie is not "copied" by some "virtual" scheme. Instead, the tone is created using real tubes and the natural dynamic interplay of more traditional analog circuit designs. Rotosphere sounds real for several reasons.
Like the original, it achieves authentic acceleration and deceleration with a breaker switch; like the original, it offers two clearly defined rotation speeds; and, like the original, its sophisticated high-voltage tube circuitry generates highly detailed tube harmonics and dynamics. In stereo mode, it reveals the same kind of tonal subtlety which makes it nearly impossible to differentiate from the original.
In short, Rotosphere captures the musical essence of a tube Leslie in a compact unit that is very easy to use.
Back to the Future!
Rotosphere gives guitarists a cool new way to create sounds that "move".
And keyboard players can enjoy original "Hammond" sound in original quality in a package that is both transportable and affordable."
