Tech 21 RotoChoir Guitar Pedal

The Tech21 RotoChoir pedal emulates a vintage rotating speaker cabinet.

Employing the legendary SansAmp technology, the Tech21 Roto Choir delivers the entire signal chain, from the original valve power amp to the low-frequency speaker and high-frequency horn, to the microphone used to capture it. This pedal can be used with guitar as well as keyboards, synths, and vocals, and to record direct.

The Tech21 Roto Choir features a Fast/Slow footswitch which allows you to speed up, slow down, or even stop the rotating speaker. There’s a dedicated Top Speed control to custom set the rotor speed and a Position control to adjust the virtual mic closer to or further from the horns.

Other controls include Drive to adjust the amount of compression, harmonics and grit, active dual-band EQ, and Level. The Biamped switch allows you to change to single speaker mode and there’s a Speaker Sim switch for direct recording. Stereo output, buffered bypass, and a silent-switching, custom footswitch actuator completes the package.
