Leslie speaker sims - mad idea #509

[EliasMooseblaster]

I apologise for asking a keyboard-related question on a guitar forum...but it does involve guitar pedals!

I recently found, to my delight, that I could make my not-very-fancy keyboard produce a more convincing Electric Organ sound by running the output through a Joyo British Sound (basically a Marshall-esque preamp pedal). Whilst I'm very pleased with this discovery, it's a bit limited if I want to sound like anyone other than Jon Lord.

Now, I'm aware there's a range of pedals designed to simulate a Leslie speaker for guitarists. Just wondering - before I get tempted to spend a not-insignificant amount of money - whether anyone's tried running a keyboard through one of these, and how good/terrible did it sound?

Anything here to tempt you..? ...

Lesley Rotary Fx ...

An important point to note would be the simulation, not only of the speed, but of the acceleration/deceleration, too, which add much to the Lesley panoply of sounds. Just sayin'.

Oh, quite a lot to tempt me - thank you for digging that up!

I'm also kicking myself for not guessing why the two version of the EHX pedal were so named - of course, "K" denoted keyboards, and "G" guitars. (I blame it being Friday when I first started looking...) Quite encouraged to see that a lot of the others claim to be equally suitable for keys and guitars: if I'm going to invest in a pedal then that versatility is a definite plus!
