Description
The Pinwheel captures the churning, doppler-rich motion of a rotating speaker cabinet and packs it into a pedalboard-friendly box. Instead of a single generic “rotary” setting, it offers three distinct voices, including the shop’s own Vibratone-style character, so you can dial in anything from a subtle shimmer to a full-throttle spin.
- Three selectable rotary speaker voices, including a dedicated Vibratone-inspired setting
- Switchable Slow and Fast speeds for classic ramp-up, ramp-down movement
- Onboard Overdrive stage adds grit and texture on top of the modulation
- Sensitivity control ties modulation intensity to your pick attack—dig in harder and the swirl deepens
Placement-wise, this pedal rewards experimentation. Run it after your gain stages for a lush, ambient wash on cleans and light drive, or push it earlier in the chain and let its built-in Overdrive interact with downstream reverb and delay for a more layered, vintage-organ vibe. The dynamic Sensitivity response means the effect isn’t static—your playing dynamics shape how hard the speaker “spins,” giving pedal steel-style swells, keyboard-esque sustain, and psychedelic breathing textures all from one footswitch-controlled box.
Whether you’re chasing Leslie-cabinet nostalgia or just want a new modulation flavor that reacts to touch rather than a fixed LFO, the Pinwheel earns a permanent spot on boards built for tonal depth.
