Keeley Electronics Rotary Pedal

I’m excited to bring you yet another rotating speaker pedal this week – we don’t see these too often, so having two in the span of a couple days is both rare and exciting! After investigating the Boss RT-2 Rotary Ensemble a couple days ago, today we’re looking at the aptly-titled Rotary Pedal from Keeley Electronics. Also a stereo pedal like the RT-2, this offering from Robert and crew has a bit more on the tonal options side, plus the ability to move from slow to fast speeds with ease…

Rotary speaker cabinets impart a one-of-a-kind type of chorus effect. This pedal faithfully recreates the swirling textures and vintage warmth of those rotary cabinets. Tucked inside Keeley’s laser cut aluminum case is a brand new set of circuit boards delivering the finest tone we’ve ever achieved. The quality is so impressive that it’s knocking industry titans off pedal boards. Syrupy Swirl & Tube Breakup – achieve that classic rotary sound with a rich, “chorus-y” effect and a tube-like overdrive, reminiscent of those era-defining guitar tones!

Sculpt Your Sound:

Blend: Find the perfect mix between dry and wet signals for a subtle warble or a full-on sonic whirlpool.
Drive: Dial in tube-like harmonic saturation that adds depth and character to your tone!
Mid Boost: Three different EQ curves to fatten up the stereo chorus effect.

Rotary in Motion:

Dual Speed: Choose between two distinct rotation speeds for classic slow warble or a more dramatic, fast chorus effect.
Brake: Instantly slow down the rotation for a cool “stopping” effect, adding a dynamic touch to your playing.
Adjustable Ramp: Control the speed transition between slow and fast for smooth or dramatic soundscapes.
Large Speed Knob: Easily control the rotation speed for intuitive adjustments on the fly!

Love the mid boost options here with the Rotary Pedal, especially when paired with some grit from the Drive knob – it really brings authentic, classic and vintage sounds right into your rig, and the spatial stereo field makes it sound absolutely phenomenal. This series of like-sized pedals from Keeley Electronics is extremely exciting – we’ve got a couple more coming in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!!
