What Our Customers Are Saying About zZounds "I "discovered" zZounds about 2 years ago & was curious about their "Play as you Pay" installment plan. I am a musician so, I am sometimes strapped for cash. Without this plan I would have never been able to get the gear I need!" - customer on May 8th, 2012

"Very little weight - Huge rotary speaker experience"
Sound: I own a B-3 and two Leslie 122's. I just can't face moving the real Leslie's around at 140 lb. I own the new Nord C1 Combo Organ and am playing it thru the Pro 145. The organ sounds nearly identical thru the Pro 145 as it does thru my 122- which I am able to use thanks to Nord's 11 pin rotary speaker (and an 11 pin to 6 pin adapter). There is a difference, however, owing to the large wood cabinet that is the 122. But, the parameters that are tweakable on the Pro 145 allow the player to adjust for that to a nearly infinite degree. Feature: Motion Sound supplies a stomp box but you can use any kind of pedal to change the rotary speeds. I actually like using a digital piano pedal to do that. The polarity is reversed so that the speaker rotates on slow until you step on the pedal;when you step on it, it speeds up and slows down when you take your foot off. Most players use the slow speed more than the fast - at least I do - and a reversed polarity pedal acutally works better to achieve this end. Ease of Use: The manual supplied with the unit goes over the features in detail but a few live gigs will bring it all into perspective. Especially important is the gain to volume ratio and the level at which you set your pre-amp mode. All of this gives you a virtually infinite number of possibilities for creating your "dream rotary speaker". Try doing that with a vintage 122! Quality: It seems to be very sturdily made but the belts on the rotors could be confused with linguine. From what I've read, however, they're not breaking left and right so maybe they're just a new generation of indestructible plastic. I'm hoping! Value: I think Pro 145 is fairly priced compared to every other alternative currently out there. Manufacturer Support: I have dealt with Motion Sound personally. I called to ask them about using another pedal besides the stomp box that comes with the unit. Not only did I speak to a real-live technical person but he was extremely friendly, extremely helpful, and I came away with a really good feeling about the company which, for me, is huge. The Wow Factor: The unit is "sexy" by virtue of it's compactness, bed-liner finish, power house ability in a small package, and nearly 360 degree, cloth -covered louvres that allow for true rotary speaker projection around the room. Overall: As I said above, if weight, transportabilty, and my two previous back surgeries, were not a factor I would probably use my vintage 122. But, because all of these are very much factors, I appreciate all that Motion Sound has done in conceiving the extremely portable Pro 145.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "A very nice Leslie alternative"
Sound: Sounds good but lacks the bottom end, possibly because it has a 12" speaker. I have hooked it up to a subwoofer to get the sound I want. Feature: Every feature i could ask for Ease of Use: Quite intuitive Quality: I had to adjust the horn speakers when I first turned it on. Shipping must have caused the problem but it gas been perfect since. Value: I would like to see this priced at $1500 or less. It's too close to the price of a Leslie 3300. Manufacturer Support: NA The Wow Factor: The size of the unit made me buy it because i didn't want to cart a 130 lb wooden Leslie amp. Overall: I am still wanting a leslie 3300 and may upgrade after I do an A/B test
Style of Music: R&B, Jazz, rock
