containing the Drawbar sounds after they are routed through the [DRAWBAR DISTORT] and [ROTARY]
effects. For the best results, use both the Left and Right jacks.
CLASSIC OUTPUT
These 1/4" jacks allow you to send a line-level signal from the Classic Organ generator to separate channels
of a mixing board, a dedicated effects unit and/or to separate speaker enclosures. This gives you full control
over the output of Classic Organ sounds. For the best results, use both the Left and Right jacks.
ROTARY TONE CABINET
Although the W-5000 provides a very realistic simulation of a rotary speaker system, there's nothing like the
real thing! This multi-pin connector allows you to use a real rotary tone cabinet with your instrument. We
recommend the following models:
•
Leslie 122 (requires an 11-pin to 6-pin adapter module; Leslie Kit 1122)
This is the old unit that most people are likely to have. It supports only a single rotating channel.
•
Leslie 122XB
This is the newer version of the Leslie 122 and does not require the 11-pin to 6-pin adapter. It also supports
only a single rotating channel.
•
Leslie 716/723
These models are similar the 122XB except that they support a stationary channel (called MAIN) as well
as the rotating channel. In the W-5000, the drawbar signal can be sent to this MAIN stationary channel.
This simulates the combination of the old Leslie 122 and the stationary organ tone cabinet sometimes used
in church environments.
•
Leslie 750
This model is like the 723, but adds another pair of stationary channels called AUX 1 and AUX 2 (four
channels in all). The W-5000 supports these AUX channels by allowing you to select whether the Speaker
mix or the Line mix goes to these pins of the ROTARY TONE CABINET connector.
NOTE: The Leslie 412 is NOT RECOMMENDED because it has only a single AUX channel.
The ROTARY TONE CABINET output signal (called 'XRot' in the Audio parameters) is the 'dry' Drawbar
signal split off before it reaches the W-5000's internal Rotary simulator, but after the [DRAWBAR
DISTORT] and [UPPER DB VIB]/[LOWER DB VIB] effects. Therefore, it is possible to have an external
rotary tone cabinet and the W-5000's simulated rotary sound used simultaneously for that 'multiple rotary'
sound.
