Neo Micro Vent 16 from Neo Instruments simulates the classic guitar leslie with a 10 inch speaker into a single drum rotor. Yes, we are talking about the vertically suspended magic of the Fender Vibratone. The algorithm simulates capturing the Vibratone with one mic and the distance from the cabinet is variable. Compared to the micro Vent 122, the micro Vent 16 sounds less complex and dominant. It is perfect for rhythm work and for giving lead tones the final touch.
The pedaal has four knobs: Speed, Ramp, Blend and Distance.
SPEED adjusts the initial Speed of the micro Vent. The range is from Slow to Fast while intermediate Speeds are also possible.
DISTANCE controls the placing of the virtual microphones. Closer distances result in deeper amplitude modulation.
RAMP controls acceleration and deceleration of the rotors when changing Speeds.
BLEND mixes the dry input signal with the effect signal. The dry signal always stays analog and latency free.
The micro Vent has two adjustable speeds. Speed 1 is controlled with a pot and ranges continuously from Slow to Fast, providing intermediate speeds as well; Speed 2 is selected via a 3-way switch featuring the standard speeds – Slow, Fast and Stop. S
pecial SWITCH MODES provide flexible switching, e.g. from Slow to Fast, Fast to Slow, Slow to Stop, Stop to Fast, etc. The combinations are almost limitless.The RAMP parameter determines acceleration and deceleration between the two speeds. You will never get tired of listening to the rotors spooling up and down, recreating the sounds that made the originals so glorious.
