Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The JHS 3 Series Rotary Chorus is a rotary speaker simulation pedal from JHS Pedals' budget-friendly 3 Series line, priced at $99. Controls include Volume, Intensity (modulation depth), and Speed, plus a Room toggle that adds a reverberant, room-like dimension to the effect. The pedal emulates the swirling, pitch-shifting character of a rotating Leslie cabinet speaker. True bypass.
The Keeley Rotary is a rotary speaker emulation pedal from Keeley Electronics, delivering the swirling, Doppler-effect modulation of a vintage Leslie rotary speaker cabinet in pedalboard format. It simulates the cycling between a Leslie's high and low rotor speeds, producing the classic organ-style swirl associated with rotating-speaker cabinets rather than a conventional chorus or vibrato sweep. It suits organ-influenced, classic-rock, and psychedelic players wanting authentic Leslie rotary character without carrying an actual rotating-speaker cabinet.
