Published on 02/10/13 at 09:00 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Pedal Chorus / Vibrato / Leslie simulation size expression pedal (same box as the Dunlop crybaby).
An entry in a release out, a 9v power jack.
A switch to change mode (Chorus or Vibrato).
A knob that manages the amount of effect.
Not true bypass, like most mxr / dunlop.
Housing screws are crap, I broke 3 trying to screw the base.
UTILIZATION
The general configuration is simple. Once the mode is selected and the effect on (activation similar to conventional wah), the speed is controlled by the expression pedal. A small adjustment period is necessary compared to the effects of modulation "fixed" type phaser or chorus to control this Rotovibe properly.

A small adjustment period is necessary compared to the effects of modulation "fixed" type phaser or chorus to control this Rotovibe properly.
SOUND QUALITY
Level of the knob is always thoroughly, and I use 90% of the way "chorus".
If you are looking for a realistic simulation of Leslie, go your way. If this pedal was thought well, it's a failure, but its very special character ended up having his own followers (Zakk Wylde, Jerry Cantrell ...).
It is neither a chorus or a phaser or a vibe, but a bit of everything at once, so it is not always easy to master, but I ended up prefer this to other reports by more conventional effects (phaser, flanger, chorus).
Let me explain: it is clear from this pedal a very dynamic, controllable in real time, you are not locked into a cycle of modulation, and the effect seems to react differently attacks right hand is really very pleasant. I always use a little crunch as its base, so it was very important that the modulation effect does food not once its activated as a chorus sometimes do, for example.
Sound, without being exceptional, is quite good, both in subtle adjustments has pushed back behind a Fuzz.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 months now. I'm not a fan of modulation effects because I tend to find that it affects the quality of a crunch or distortion. This pedal did not so much that impression. The sound is nice, but I can not wait to try the Fulltone vibe already for example. It appears overall impression product fairly standard, and better products must exist for a closer result.
That said, the pedal is engaging, and control the speed up is really a big advantage.
Value for money (120 euros used, the pedal is no longer manufactured) seems honest.
I think I would do this choice.See less70wurly74

This is even more effective with the guitar
I put way to the note, but actually it is pretty poor for the tremolo and perfect for the chorus.
OVERALL OPINION
I had bought for the tremolo as a leslie simulation but I almost never lutilise.
For the chorus against me stuck with the downturn when it snaps into the position slowly!! A basic guitar and an amp with this rotten on the arpeggio air "shine on you crazy diamond" and it does.
It sounds very Led Zep, Ben Harper too.
The pedal in my opinion is indestructible, but also heavy and bulky, I rarely use the pedal shift: I'm mostly in chorus / slow position / maximum intensity.
If I found a small pedal-type boss with this setting and the sound plus the slowdown in the engagement I revendrais rotovibe, but .... a boss chorus does this sound absolutely beautiful.

Jim Dunlop Rotovibe
Published on 11/27/04 at 15:00I bought this unit over the internet at guitartek for £139.95. I bought it because I wanted to add a little spice to my basic valve tone.
I generally really like the rotovibe pedal. It has a enveloping warmth and a quality lacking in many similar chorus/vibrato pedals. I knew that I would love the tone because I remember my friend had one and also from listening to perhaps the best known user of the pedal, dear Jimi...unfortuntately I still don't sound like either of these wonderful players but I'm chipping away at that big block of marble!

It has these two effects, changable by a little switch on the side which you can press with your foot if you're careful and a larger rotary knob for the intensity of the chosen effect. The pedal part (where you put your wah foot) controls the speed, going from a lovely slow swirl to an intense vibey effect.
I love this pedal and it really complements the sound I have which is a seventies Telecaster through oldish valve amps. Like guitars and amps, I think many things were done better in the old days, not just cos I'm getting an old fart, but this sort of gear has a certain quality to it, missing from the new techno age...I think it would suit many styles of music, not just retro sounds like blues, funk and jazz but anything like rock or dance music, you know I bet drums or just about any instrument would sound good through it...quality is quality at the end of the day...
The only thing I could say in a negative sense and it's probably more a matter of opinion than a fault, is that the chorus sound has a slightly thinning effect when on heavy, but it's probably more the nature of the beast than anything and my tele which tend to be thinner in tone than fat humbucking gitars!
The construction was very good, solid and dependable and the quality was, as with most Jim Dunlop products, very good. It is built to last with steel construction and the only maintenance I could foresee would be a squirt of WD40 once a decade!
This is a great pedal, creating some fabulous tones and would be useful to most guitarists, keyboardists or even studio engineers who like to experiment a bit...It's not cheap cheap, but it's definetely worth it, as it'll provide years of groovy sounds for you to drift away into the wonderful world of music, the healer, with!

Published on 12/01/11 at 21:38The JD4s is a vibrato pedal, even though the name doesn't really indicate that at all. Technically it is chorus and vibrato, which gives it a bit of a different feel.

The manual is pretty much unnecessary unless you need further definition for what these effects are, in which case you probably should not have bought the pedal.
SOUND QUALITY
Like the pedal's namesake, I prefer to use this with a Strat, but rather than a Marshall I use my trusty Twin. This is a pretty cool vibrato pedal. It can actually get a surprising range of sounds for having only the two knobs. There is the basic "wiggly" vibrato that gave the pedal its name, and that sound actually dominates most of the settings. There's actually one configuration that will give you a decent Leslie speaker emulation too, which I think is an unexpected but surely welcome bonus. The chorus effect I find less appealing, but that's because I generally like that effect less in general. As a chorus, though, it holds up pretty well. It avoids modulating too hard, and doesn't drastically alter your tone the way that a lesser digital pedal will.
OVERALL OPINION
I like the fact that this pedal is really cheap, and actually has a great sound. Like most Moen pedals, there are certainly better ones out there, but it's surprising that this one is actually so much cheaper and can still hang with those. I'd recommend this to anyone who really feels the need for a good vibrato but doesn't want to pay too much money (or frankly doesn't have it!).

A manual isn't necessary for this reason, although I've never seen it so I can't speak to how well put together it is.
SOUND QUALITY
While not the most versatile chorus/vibrato pedal that I've used, the Dunlop Rotovibe JD-4S does provide some pretty awesome sounds. I've used the pedal with a Fender Stratocaster and a 1976 Fender Twin Reverb, which definitely gave me a pretty good idea about what the pedal sounds like. It isn't the best simulator of a Leslie that I have heard from a pedal, but it does sound pretty damn good. I like the vibrato mode better overall, but both of the modes are pretty comparable in terms of sound quality. The best feature that the Rotovibe JD-4S has over other pedals of this type is definitely that it has the expression pedal to change your sound on the fly...
OVERALL OPINION
I don't think that I would recommend the Dunlop Rotovibe JD-4S to everyone looking at a chorus/vibrato pedal, but only a select group who think that they will be using the expression pedal to its maximum capacity. While the sound of the pedal is definitely enough to warrant getting this pedal, there are a lot pedals out there for the same price and cheaper that have similar sound qualities and more control. All in all though this is a great pedal that should at least be on the list of pedals to check out if you're in the market for a chorus/vibrato pedal...See less00songboy

SOUND QUALITY
I honestly don't care for this pedal overall. The vibrato is pretty fun because of the expression pedal, but in order to turn it on, you need to push the pedal all the way down, and that means you always have to start at minimal vibrato and adjust it back up. It would have been nice if there was another way to activate it so you didn't have to reset it everytime you wanted to turn it on. The chorus is ok. I own a Diamond halo chorus and the Rotovibe can't even touch that baby. I used to use this in my synth/alt vocals Mixer's effect chain to create some crazy vibrato effects, but in the end, I took it out of my arsenal and am trying to sell it. The
OVERALL OPINION
I have had it for six months and I never really used it during that time. What I like about it was the idea of the built in expression pedal, but when I got it, I realized the activation flaw and was very sad ): Also, it doesn't even have stereo options, whats the deal with that. Even cheap boss chorus pedals have that. Again, if you want fantastic chorus, get the Diamond halo chorus, or even and Analog man chorus pedal. Either one will make the rotovibe look childish. Overall, I am disappointed in this pedal. I got mine used for $100 and I regret it very much.See less00
