fireberd Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 The included Leslie simulators (Rotary and Rotary Drum with Horn) are not very intuitive or realistic. I had a killer rotary in my XT and later X3. But the one in the HD leaves a lot to be desired. Any suggestions to make it better? I tried adding a 4 band EQ and that helped a little but it still sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiCantwell Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Agreed. I find them weak, no matter where I put them in my chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireberd Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 I've fixed the problem. I'm sending the HD back. I found a NOS X3 that I am buying. If I were using amp modeling and distortion, I would not notice the difference between the HD and the older XT/X3's. But, as I only use it for effects only it is very sterile. Sort of like comparing the XT/X3 to a tube amp and the HD to a solid state amp. Or another comparison, I have a Boss DD-5 delay pedal, it does not change the guitar's tone. I tried a Boss RV3 (tried several) and it changes the basic guitar tone slightly (guitar tone loses some body). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
