BOSS RT-20 Rotary Sound Processor at a Glance:
Classic rotary speaker sounds using COSM technology Years of intensive research and development have made Roland and BOSS world leaders in modeling technology. Roland's breakthrough Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) uses the advantages of multiple modeling methods, and succeeds in accurately emulating existing sounds as well as producing sounds that have never before been created. With the BOSS RT-20, COSM is used to simulate classic rotary characteristics, and beyond. The virtual horn and bass speaker can be independently adjusted, while the BOSS RT-20's unique graphic display provides a realtime view of the rotation pattern and speed. Easy to connect both guitars and keyboards Guitars and keyboards alike can be plugged into the Easy to connect both guitars and keyboards. Use the Drive Type switch to optimize the effects for guitar or keyboard. Surround your listeners in animated sound with the RT-20's dual outputs, which enable true stereo effects. Add color by adding an expression pedal (such as the new BOSS FV-500H/FV-500L, optional), which lets you control parameters such as rotation speed seamlessly from slow to fast in real time. The BOSS RT-20's phone jack is handy for private practice and experimentation. Stunning virtual rotor display Thanks to its stunning visual display, the BOSS RT-20 might be the most eye-catching pedal in BOSS history. The spinning lights don't just look cool, they also show the audio-rotation characteristics of the RT-20 in real time. The center of the display, illuminated in red light, represents the virtual horn. The outside ring, illuminated in blue, displays the rotation of the virtual bass speaker. It's attractive while also being informative! BOSS RT-20 Rotary Sound Processor Features:

Patty, El Sobrante, CA Reviewsbased on 9 reviewsSounds Like A Leslie
by Kevin Ernst from Michigan
The Boss RT-20 is phenomenal. You could use it for both keys and guitar, but I strictly use it for guitar. One of my favorite guitar sounds is the sound Frampton got on his Frampton Comes Alive albu... read more [+]m. He got that sound using Leslie cabinets. I know this because I've seen him several times. This pedal allows you to get that same sound without having to lug around a Leslie and it's extremely simple to use. It's the coolest effect in my guitar rig. close [-]
