Boss RT-20 Rotary Ensemble demo

My quick and dirty demo of the features available on the Boss RT-20 Rotary Ensemble twin pedal.
I'm playing a Strat into a Rocktron VooDu Valve preamp with the stereo outs going directly into the RT-20, and those outputs going into my recording interface.

jbisti Tim Allen said " Real men don't read manuals" I take advantage of these people's laziness, illiteracy, and A.D.D. all the time, and score great deals on cool stuff like old Silvertone and Airline guitars, oddball off-brand tube amps "obsolete" studio rack gear; and nice old test equipment. I have one of these pedals and it works just fine for Hammond if you use a good tube amp like a Marshall or a Twin.

@jpalberthoward9 Yup, exactly. People often don't take the time to learn about what they want or have, and they let stupid outside factors influence their opinions. I devour manuals, and as a result, really love these Boss pedals with lots of "hidden" features. Too many people expect these high-level tools to work like Playskool toys.

Nice Playing,do you do porn music professionally or as a hobby?

[jbisti]

@JJF10101957 Hahahahahaha... why can't it be both?

This just made me want to go play it at guitar center. Much better then Boss' demo, they didn't even demo the univibe efect

[jbisti]

@joewalshman96 It's definitely a great pedal to space out with, especially if you can do a stereo setup. I'm always finding reasons to use it.

[jbisti]

Some people would rather watch a youtube video showing some of the nicer features than read through the manual for a pedal that they're not sure they want to buy.

I'm so sorry for forcing you watch all 8 minutes. Oh wait... I didn't.

You know what you should play? ..... Summertime loving, loving in the Summer (time)!

[UpcomingJedi]

@jbisti If they did what you do then there would be many more satisfied players that would keep their thing rather than put it up on ebay for cheap.

Very good demo, thanks for sharing!

Joey Defransesco [Hammond organ master] used a Ventilator to replace his 122 Leslie while touring with David Sanborn recently....

@moucon I have played guitar & Hammond thru a real Leslie since the early 70's Live & in the Studio, & the Vent is by far the best simulation yet. That is the truth.

@Bertokia Everyone has to justify whatever it is they wasted their money on. I've been doing a side-by-side comparison for months, on about a dozen Leslie emulators. Haven't purchased any yet. The Neo vent. probably does sound a little better in some ways - but it's also twice the money - and to be honest I think the Boss 's spin-up and braking sounds are the best I've heard. Calling it a "joke" -especially an all-caps JOKE is way out of line - and not true at all.
