Designed for guitarists, the RT-2 offers rich, immersive sounds with pulsating, swirling, and chorus-like textures that add new depth to your performance. Beyond the classic rotary speaker voice, it features three distinct rotary types, adjustable preamp drive, and balance control between horn and bass rotor, empowering you to craft dynamic, three-dimensional modulation effects.

WHO'S IT FOR?

• Guitarists who are interested in rotary or spatial modulation effects.
• Keyboard players and vocalists who want that authentic swirling sound.

AUTHENTIC TONE AND FUNCTIONALITY IN A COMPACT FORMAT

• Classic rotary speaker and preamp tones, along with enhanced variations for richer ambience and a broader drive range.
• Advanced tone shaping with new dual-axis knobs to control rotor speed, preamp drive, slow/fast speed settings, and horn/bass rotor mix.
• The pedal switch enables seamless transitions between slow and fast rotor speeds, while accurately capturing the tonal nuances during transistion
• Virtual Rotor display visually syncs the motion of the horn and bass rotors for intuitive feedback.

MULTIPLE MODES FOR INSPIRATION & CREATIVITY

• Three distinct rotary voices:
  • Mode I: Authentic vintage rotary speaker and preamp tones, recreated using cutting-edge BOSS modeling technology.
  • Mode II: Expanded tonal range delivers a more natural spatial ambience, making it an ideal match for drive pedals and beyond.
  • Mode III: Enhanced modulation and drive range delivers a fuller tone with improved presence in the mix.
• Rear-panel Drive/Balance switch reassigns the Drive knob to adjust horn and bass rotor volume balance, functioning like a hi/low-pass filter.

EASY TO CONTROL

• Multi-functional pedal switch enables both speed (slow/fast) and effect (on/off) control.
• Dedicated speed jack supports separate slow/fast switching via external footswitches.
• Unlock Brake function emulates the natural inertia-based stopping motion of rotary speakers.
• External expression pedal input allows real-time control of assigned parameters.
