Variable rotary speeds please!!

"Profiling a rotary speaker cabinet
The Kemper Profiling Amp already ships with some rotary speaker profiles and rigs which were captured
from the real thing, but if you have access to a different brand of rotary speaker, you can take your own
profiles, too.
To do this, first set up the rotary speaker as you would in a normal recording situation. Next, connect the
whole chain to the PROFILER, just as you would with a guitar amp. This time, however, two microphones
should be used to capture the cabinet - one for the bass rotor, and one for the tweeter horn.
Connect the microphones to a mixer, create a mono mix of the two, and send this to the PROFILER’s RETURN
INPUT. The idea is for both microphones to be captured at the same time, resulting in a single profile.
Now, switch your Rotary speaker to high speed and start the profiling procedure. The profiling process
will ignore the rotation of the cabinet and only capture the typical sound character. The resulting profile
will probably sound weird and uninspiring on its own, but when you engage the “Rotary speaker” stomp in
the MOD module, you’ll hear the rich and animated sound of your original rotary cabinet.

✔Tip: Although the profile is captured in mono, you can use the “Rotary speaker” stomp in the MOD or X
slot to recreate the typical stereo movement of the signal. The Rotary speaker effect will automatically
separate the bass rotor from the tweeter horn."

Thanks a lot for your reply and advice. I never tried profiling (though it should be tried) my passive Leslie (with no horn), just only the rotating drum in front of a single 12".
I just can hear a difference between my overall sound "in the room" (especially when the slow rotating leslie-sound mixes up with the amp's direct sound). This always was an issue with all the different simulation-boxes, and also with my KPA,
maybe due to the fact that there is no horn driver in my cabinet. I should give it a try to profile my constellation.

That's a very nice demo of the transition effect, Don. I'm not sure how to set that up with my midi foot controller (Ground Control Pro - any help here would be great). But my real point in suggesting variable fast and slow speed controls is that we are playing guitars here, right? We don't have to emulate an organ's transitions to be creative with this nice effect. Having total control over the speed parameter, as in so many other effects on the KPA, would only enhance it's value imho.

all of this has pretty much been already discussed here

Hi Guys,

+1 for adjustable rotor speed here...I like Rotary much more then Chorus but i could deffo use an adjustable control especially for the slow speed...preferable with an expression pedal....

Thanks in advance KemperCrew

Another +1 for this feature. I generally use the Rotary with a fixed speed, and often find the preset rates are not ideal for my purposes (that being said, the "Ramp Up" feature is pretty accurate to a real Leslie Cabinet). This is such a great sounding effect, and I would love to be able to use it in a more practical manner. Thanks!

Adjustable would be great!

+1 to the feature request. Full range of the speed 0-127 would be gerat if we can control it from pedal
