UNUSUAL MTI ROTOPHASER LESLIE SPEAKER UNIT WITH FOOTPEDAL
Have decided to let this go - an MTI Rotophaser rotary speaker box, similar to the top section
of a Leslie speaker.
It's quite effective, gives you most of the Leslie sound without the weight of a large cabinet
with the bottom speaker rotor.
Since I have 2 full Leslies, I don't really have need of it any longer.
This unit is in very good condition, given the age (standard wear on the exterior Tolex).
It includes the hard-to-find footswitch controller, which allows control of the motor speeds
(SLOW / FAST / OFF), and a BYPASS control for muting the sound (and switching the amplifier to
the EXT output, I believe, but I haven't tested that, just that the INTernal sound cuts off).
The speaker requires an external amplifier to power it - I'd say something in the 25W to 100W range
would work well. It's been fully checked out, all functions work, and it sounds very good,
gives a great Leslie chorale and tremolo effect.
This unit is great for organ players who don't need a full Leslie cabinet, guitar players and
harmonica players.
The RotoPhaser measures 21 inches by 24 inches by 15 inches.
It weighs 50 pounds by itself, so probably 60 pounds packed up.
FedEx Shipping to most of the country will run somewhere between $20-30, and packing will be $15-20
(I don't think I have a box large enough for it).
This includes the MTI RotoPhaser, MOTOR / BYPASS Footcontroller pedal and the AC power cord.
