Pigtronix Rototron
The Pigtronix Rototron - Analog Rotary Speaker Bliss
Authentic Analog Rotary Speaker Experience
The Pigtronix Rototron is an all-analog rotary speaker effect pedal designed to deliver unparalleled three-dimensional rotary realism in a compact format. Combining frequency modulation, phase shifting, tremolo, bucket brigade-based chorusing, and a three-way crossover, the Rototron recreates the warm, swirling tones of classic rotary speaker cabinets like the legendary 122 and 147. Inspired by the same rotary effects used by iconic artists such as Peter Frampton, Danny Gatton, and The Beatles, the Rototron brings the rich, immersive sound of vintage rotary cabinets into the hands of modern guitarists and keyboardists.
Meticulously Voiced for Realism
Designed by Howard Davis and David Koltai, the Rototron’s analog circuitry offers a warmer, fatter sound that captures the true essence of rotary speaker cabinets. Unlike digital rotary effects, the Rototron’s analog design provides an authentic feel and response, with a depth and realism that surpasses other options on the market. The pedal’s three-way crossover ensures that each frequency band is voiced to perfection, allowing the Rototron to produce the full, swirling richness of an actual rotary cabinet.
Full Stereo Capabilities and Line-Level Headroom
The Rototron is designed for both guitarists and keyboardists, offering full stereo input and output options that make it ideal for stereo setups in live performances or studio environments. With line-level headroom, the Rototron handles high-output signals with ease, ensuring clarity and precision whether you’re playing through a keyboard rig or a high-powered guitar setup. This versatility makes the Rototron a must-have pedal for musicians seeking the immersive sound of a rotary cabinet across multiple instruments and setups.
Independent Speed Controls and Brake Functionality
To emulate the dynamic nature of rotary speakers, the Pigtronix Rototron features independent Slow and Fast speed controls, allowing you to dial in the exact speed variations you need. The adjustable ramp time provides a smooth transition between speeds, mimicking the iconic accelerating and decelerating sound of a physical rotary speaker. The Brake function, which can be remotely switched, adds an extra layer of authenticity by allowing you to "stop" the virtual rotors for a more controlled rotary effect.
Expression Pedal Control for Added Flexibility
The Rototron offers separate expression pedal jacks for the low and high rotors, enabling players to explore unique variations on the classic rotary sound. This feature provides real-time control over the speed of each rotor, unlocking new creative possibilities for guitarists and keyboardists alike. Whether you want to experiment with extreme rotor speeds or create subtle shifts in tone, the expression pedal functionality gives you complete control over your sound.
