STRYMON LEX ROTARY Strymon

Manufacturer Part #:  LEX
Features

The Strymon Lex Rotary Speaker Simulator pedal is a highly acclaimed effect designed to faithfully recreate the complex, three-dimensional sound of a vintage rotary speaker system (like a cabinet) in a compact stompbox.

It models the entire system, including the rotating low-frequency bass rotor, the rotating treble horn, the tube-driven amplifier, and microphone placement.

Key Features and Controls

The Lex offers extensive control over the sonic and mechanical aspects of the rotary speaker:

ControlFunction
Fast Rotor SpeedAdjusts the rotational speed of the effect when in the "Fast" mode.
Mic DistanceVaries the perceived distance of the microphones from the rotors, going from an intense, close-miked swirl to a more ambient, distant effect.
Preamp DriveControls the saturation and grit of the simulated tube-driven amplifier. Turning this up adds growl and harmonics.
Horn LevelAdjusts the output volume of the high-frequency rotating horn.
Slow/Fast FootswitchToggles between the and rotor speeds. for the effect, where the rotors slow to a stop.
Bypass FootswitchEngages or disengages the effect ( or switchable ).

Advanced (Secondary) Functions

The controls also access deeper settings, often via holding down the footswitches and turning a knob:

  • Slow Rotor Speed: Fine-tunes the rotational speed in the "Slow" mode.

  • Acceleration Time: Controls how quickly the rotors transition (ramp up or down) between the and speeds. The bass and treble rotors accelerate independently, just like the real thing.

  • Cab Filter: Tailors the high-frequency response for optimal use with either a traditional guitar amp or a full-range speaker system ().

  • Level (): Allows for a boost or cut to the output volume when the effect is engaged.

  • Bi-Amp Mode: A specialized stereo output option that sends the treble horn signal to one output and the bass rotor signal to the other, offering independent processing possibilities.

Connectivity

  • Stereo I/O: Features mono or stereo input and full stereo outputs, which dramatically enhances the swirling, dimensional effect.

  • Expression Pedal: A dedicated jack allows for real-time control over any parameter.

  • MIDI (V2 models): Full implementation, including clock sync and access to up to presets.
