SCHALLER ROTOR SOUND

Rare Schaller Rotor Sound for sale in excellent working order and very good condition.

We have two of these in our studio – we like them that much…

We’ve listed a couple of these recently, but don’t let that fool you – they don’t come round very often and if you want one then now is the time to grab one.

NOTE: THIS IS A QUICK TEMPORARY PHOTO. If you have any questions about this unit please get in touch.

Dating from the mid-late sixties, this has an unusual circuit design using 19 inductors and has a unique sound. It works superbly – unless you really want a realistic Leslie effect (in which case you should buy a Dynacord CLS-222 or Neo Ventilator). I love what it does to beats especially, but it will add movement and interest to any source and makes a great mix send effect. I’ve heard that Kraftwerk used them, but can’t recall the source – I would expect these would have been pressed into service on the Krautrock scene as Leslie emulators weren’t overly common back then.

This mono unit features controls for Intensity (dry/wet mix) and Speed.

If you turn the Intensity knob fully clockwise you get a wet-only setting – the resulting signal seems quieter than it should be, but this is completely normal.

Normally the plastic case is painted silver but this one is black – the casing has some scuffs as you would expect but overall the unit is in very good condition.
