I hope I haven't offended you! Taste is different u know:-) Where in the chain of pedals do you run the RT-20?
Have any of you tried the Dynacord CLS-222 Leslie simulator?
I've long searched for a decent Leslie sim that's a good size. I have had the CLS222 and quite frankly, unless you're prepared to re-amp it properly so it runs at line level then it's far too noisy and adds too much drivey hiss (note my system is pure front end analogue). Re-amping the thing is also hard, as as far as I am aware you need 2 boxes not one to do this, although dan@ the gig rig is bringing out a gizmo to do this soon.
Also, for my money, unless you're running a stereo rig, a Leslie sim is pointless as you won;'t get the right 'sweep'.
Having tried most, I have to say the Korg G4 is the best by miles. DLS and HK are too too noisy, and the RT20 to me is more chorusy. The G4 is one heck of a piece of pedal board real estate though*
One thing that I sometimes use is the TC SCF on pitch mod. This is slightly Leslie ish.
*My pedalboard, for those that have seen it, is hollow and I place the 'set and play' boxes underneath the main pedal deck. I think I can squeeze the G4 into the cavity, and as I tend only to use it on one setting, this may be the way forward and then control it off my switching system.
