Anyone using rotating speakers?

[Sortasonic]

Sorry if this is too OT... I'm just really in need of advice. I'm looking for a rotating speaker solution for B3 and guitar. Don't have room for a Leslie in my space-challenged studio, unfortunately. I hear the Motion Sound Pro3T is the next best thing. Is anyone here using it (or anything else) who could comment?

I have used it, if you don't need the overdrive of a loud Leslie then it's great but it won't get you that Deep Purple sound.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I've had a hard time finding people who have used it.

Remember that this is a live speaker so it will make noise in the room. Motion Sound also makes an enclosed rack version of this that is supposed to sound real good (it actually has an horn inside and some mics that you can change position. I have a H&K Tube Rotosphere that is very ballsy and has nice overdrive (12ax7 tube). It's worth checking out.

Hey...check around for something called a "porta-leslie"...it was an 8" driver and a rotating foam thing that did a great job of the leslie sound, all in a box about 1x2x2foot....very cool! Truth is that I actually think I have the guts of one if you're into a little cabinet-making.....
you can email me if interested...
