Ran across this today, being somewhat inquisitive about all of this from that discussion we had about the DC-2 I got recently:

That is some insane stuff. There was a guy on HC a few weeks ago selling a Fender speaker cab that was a copy of the Leslie.

You know, for the longest time I had only equated rotating speakers with phase shifting -- it should have occurred to me (but never did) that the Doppler effect of the sound source moving towards and away was also throwing in some slight pitch bending. I guess that we now know where the idea for analog solid state chorus came from.

Chris,

Thanks for the link. Great stuff.

I still think the Korg G4 is the best Leslie sim I've heard. With all the controls, you can get phaser sounds, slow chorus sounds & fast Leslie sounds. Stereo into 2 amps it goes round & round the room. It's amazing. At 8 1/2" X 11", it's a got a big footprint, but nothing like a giant box full of rotating speakers!

Grace and peace,

Steve

It might have been one like it, but it sure wasn't mine that was for sale... "cold, dead hands" etc

And yes - when you play through a leslie cab running on slow speed (or "chorale", as it is called on a 122/147), you definitely know what the designers of the first chorus pedal was aiming for...
