UVI Release New Rotary Effects Plug-in

Our friends at UVI have today released a new rotary speaker cabinet emulation plug-in called Rotary. This new dedicated rotary plug-in has caught my eye as it looks like it could replace the old AIR DB-33 virtual instrument trick I have used for years in Pro Tools that delivers realistic rotary speaker cabinet effects in my mixes.

What Is Rotary By UVI?

The effects of rotary speaker cabinets are commonly heard on hammond organ recordings. The tremolo results are rich, vibrant and very distinctive. From what we have read on the UVI website, Rotary claims to be a hard core emulation of several rotary speaker cabinets coupled with clever virtual microphone features. Watch this space for a Pro Tools Expert review of Rotary in the coming weeks.
