TC Electronic VIBRACLONE ROTARY Speaker Emulation Pedal

Rotating Speaker Emulator Pedal with Simple 2-Knob Interface

Thicken your guitar and keyboard tones with the warm warble of a vintage rotary speaker with the VIBRACLONE ROTARY from TC Electronic, a pedal that emulates the classic Vibratone speaker. Sporting simple Speed and Drive controls along with two vintage-sounding modes (Chorale and Tremolo), you'll be ripping Hendrix-tinged solos in no time.

The 2-knob interface makes it easy to produce everything from earthy and swampy to psychedelia-dipped tones in rapid fashion. Drive lets you tune the warm and dynamic tube-style overdrive to your liking, while Speed controls the rate of the rotary effect. With true bypass, you maintain your pure signal, free from high-frequency tone suck, when you disengage the pedal. Top-mounted I/O jacks make it easy to fit this compact pedal onto any pedalboard. And with options for 9V battery or power adapter input (both sold separately), you never have to worry about being without power.

The classic sound of those old rotating speaker systems may have been born as an effect designed for the electric organ, but guitarists have always pushed the envelope when it comes to finding new tones. They soon found that when they plugged a guitar in and turned up the tone cabinet tube amps, a surprisingly sweet and dynamic overdrive sound was created; one that has been immortalized on myriad classic rock recordings.

VIBRACLONE ROTARY's Drive knob lets you dial in that same sweetly organic and rich tube amp sustain accompanied by the lush modulation of a rotary speaker. You have the choice of either the slow and rich Chorale setting, or the fast, almost watery-sounding Tremolo setting, just like the original. Turn the Speed knob to adjust the delayed response from the pedal, which simulates the acceleration and deceleration of the speaker baffle.

VIBRACLONE ROTARY is built to stand up to anything that a touring musician might demand from it. The built-like-a-tank metal frame houses high-quality electronic components.

And the best part? Unlike the original Vibratone, you won't need an army of muscular friends to help move it.
