Neo InstrumentsMini Vent II Rotary Speaker Simulator Pedal

The funtions & sound are perfect for my application , when connected with a line directed box from TREC II to my 1956 Hammond M 3 it gives true stereo to the Boss B R 900 C D recorder , eliminating the need for mics & dosent weigh 140 lbs . ( Note , Before I got the line direct box I did mic the on bord speaker in the organ to the VENT I I with an X L R 1/4 adapter & got good results )

I don’t like leaving negative reviews but for $400 this pedal should have sounded close to a 122 Leslie. My box was not sealed so maybe it was a defective unit. This did not sound anything like a Leslie. I use a Korg keyboard which has some good Organ sounds. In fact the built in Rotary effect on my keyboard sounded better than this pedal. I know they make a Vent II but at that price it’s not for me. I might have to lug my keyboard to a Guitar Center to try different pedals.

Incredible. I own a 1962 Hammond C3 and 1958 Leslie 51C. I play an HX3 organ module through the vent in mono when I play live. I'm not disappointed, or wishing I hauled my 160lb Leslie. Of course it's a little different than being right next to the real thing, but close enough- much better than the internal clonewherl sims I've heard so far (I haven't updated to HX3 firmware 4.25 from 4.22 yet so can't comment on that). Note: I had to put it on low gain mode.

Very good imitation of the Leslie Rotating speaker for organ or guitar. I prefer the Rotovibe for guitar, though. I'm using this with a Hammond L-100 organ through PA or an old Fender Bandmaster Amp and it sounds great. It can be adjusted as to distance, distortion, etc. but kind of complicated to program. I heard about this box when Chuck Levell used one with a B-3 while touring with the Rolling Stones. A lot lighter and cheaper than a leslie 122. If it's good enough for Chuck...

I ordered one of these Mini Vents for my SK1 because so many organists who are way beyond my level raved about them. After setting it up and playing my first licks, I was a bit disappointed. While it appeared to be well built and while the sound of the top rotor was pretty good, the pedal drastically cut the natural bottom end, causing my SK1 to sound thin. I've since replaced it with a Lester K which gives a fatter sound at a lower price. It's not perfect, but I think the overall sound is better.

Schweet!

Just buy it. No comparison to my onboard sounds. Not even close. Mad at myself for not buying this years ago.
