Rotary In A Box
The amazing lush sound of the VENTILATOR II in a compact and easy to use pedal format. Enhance your organ, keyboard or guitar with the depth and richness of classic Rotary Speaker emulation. Mini VENT II has the same DSP power as its big brother VENTILATOR II. Its powerful and flexible emulation algorithms provide the dynamic responsiveness of rotary cabinet classics as well as exciting variations - discover the infinite sonic possibilities. It’s ready to play providing everything most players need and its compact rugged enclosure is ideal for compact pedal boards.

One For All
Are you searching for that silky sweet, smokey hot or gritty grinding rotary sound you know from classic records? Then the mini VENT II is for you! Whether you play organ or guitar, mini VENT II is responsive and can be tweaked exactly to the sound you desire. Discover how versatile, dynamic, and vibrant your instrument can sound with the detailed emulation of a Leslie 122 rotary cabinet. Connected directly into your guitar amp, PA, or during recording, the flexibility of two different cabinet modes ensures the perfect adjustment and sonics tailored to your performance. Many of the world's pros rely on the mini VENT II and for good reason.

Enchanting Sound
Slowly the rotors begin to turn and open up a spacy sound spectrum in real 3D. This magical moment when sound is getting in motion will put a smile on your face. Thanks to the meticulous emulation of a Leslie 122 Rotary Speaker, accurately representing a three microphone (2x treble, 1x bass) placement, mini VENT II captures every detail you need. This is ensured by the same DSP performance, enormous headroom and the impeccable sound quality renowned the world over by its big brother VENTILATOR II.

Tube Drive
A rotary emulation would not be complete without the smokey hot magic of a tube saturated power amp. Our sophisticated tube amp model delivers a vivid and dynamic sound that can be controlled musically with your Organ´s Volume Pedal or Volume Knob on your Guitar. Discover the extra excitement of how DRIVE can thicken your sound from light to super juicy. Perfect for vibrant lines and themes.

Best In Class
Mini VENT II is the result of many years of experience and our quest for perfect sound. We've taken a close look at every detail and optimized it for the best possible results. We chose a super powerful DSP to deliver unparalleled depth and dimension in a single effect and we only use the highest quality components without compromise to ensure 100% clean and authentic sound.

Flexible Yet Easy To Handle
Various editable parameters allow customizing the sound of your mini VENT II. These include Rotor Speed, Rotor Balance, Drive, Microphone Distance and Cabinet Mode. Two user presets can be stored to memory and recalled via the A-B switch. Integrate mini VENT II directly into any setup via its mono input and stereo outputs.

How much is my shipping?

Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK it's normally around £4 for order values under £150, and free above that. Shipping to mainland EU is typically between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.

Do you ship to my country?

Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.

Shipping methods

We use a combination of Parcelforce, DPD, Royal Mail and UPS for the UK, and for international orders it's either Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or FedEx depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.

Dispatch times

For UK orders, we normally dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 15:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.

For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes FedEx or UPS may come a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.

Shipping times

Since April 2020 the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer.

There is absolutely nothing we can do about this unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.

Saturday shipping

If you're in the UK and you order before 15:30 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday delivery (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). The success rate with DPD is about 95% so it's worth a punt most of the time. Please note that if you select Saturday shipping on an order placed earlier in the week, we'll wait until Friday to ship it.

Pre-orders

If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.

If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
