Leslie speed

Post by Wired »

Ns2 ‘s Leslie adj don’t seem to make any change to Leslie speed in fast mode, ideally it would be nice if fast mode could be a bit variable , slow is good enough, fast seems tooo fast

The system menu includes a setting for horn speed and one for horn acceleration. I have both set to "slow", which seems about right.

If you Morph the Rotary with the ModWheel you can get continuous control of its speed, that's the only alternative at the moment to set the "fast" the way you like it (but manually)

Are you listening in mono?

Because the mono button and just plugging in the one cable will both just sum both the left and right channels to mono. This does NOT make a mono Leslie setup — you still have two mics on the horn, so the horn will peak twice on each cycle.

This sounds like s*** IMO, so when I go mono, I always plug in both channels, but only hand one off to FOH/amp.

Same effect, btw, when you run both lines into a mixer or interface, but forget to pan them hard right and left for listening.

Thanks for the infos, I haven't played a real Leslie since late 80's so, I don't recall exactly how it sounds.... I put the 122 close after your advices and some others on this forum and I like it a lot in fact, I will try the slow speed, I think I Have kept it to normal....
