Sorry to once again bring up the rotary pedal issue -- and at that in a separate tread! -- but I´m in a bit of a hurry since there is a used Boss Rotary for sale in my neighborhood.
It goes for something like $130.

I haven´t had time, and will probably not have time for extensive testing (it´s supposed to go before or after my POG2 and into an amp), and it seems like it´s a tad complicated.
Still, I need a roto effect badly.

Any impressions of this from a user? All input valued.
Thanks /Martin

If you go onto Blues Harp Forum search left side scroll down you will see it.Type in the RT 20 and there is some input on it discussed in the past.Good Luck, I hope that helps.The search has some great info for looking up past subjects that we,re discussed here.BTW $130. isn,t a bad price for that unit.

Good point NiteCrawler, and I was stupid/lazy not to check the archives -- although they are not very much up to date.

My impression from a very quick test (ten minutes) of the RT (just harmonica and mic into a random amp) was that it was interesting, but kinda hard to dial in the good stuff.
Also, when in off mode it appeared to suck quite a bit of sound from the amp. (Not many people would want play an entire gig with a roto sim ...)
But I might be going for it. The price, as you say, seems fair. (And it´s exactly what I got for selling my not much used Harp Attack!)

A dated post should not make a difference.The Rt 20 is what it is.Mensh I believe is his handle actually gives you the settings which work best for him when he uses it.Maybe you may want to try those when demo-ing it.(Just A Thought)HAGN
