IMPORTANT ADVICE ON SAFETY! PLEASE READ BEFORE USE AND KEEP FOR LATER USE!
The unit has been built by Hughes & Kettner in accordance with IEC 60065 and left the factory in safe working order. To maintain this condition and ensure non-risk operation, the user must follow the advice and warning comments found in the operating instructions. The unit conforms to Protection Class 1 (protectively earthed). HUGHES & KETTNER ONLY GUARANTEE THE SAFETY, RELIABILITY AND EFFICIENCY OF THE UNIT IF: Assembly, extension, re-adjustment, modifications or repairs are carried out by Hughes & Kettner or by persons authorized to do so. The electrical installation of the relevant area complies with the requirements of IEC (ANSI) specifications. The unit is used in accordance with the operating instructions. The unit is regularly checked and tested for electrical safety by a competent technician. WARNING: If covers are opened or sections of casing are removed, except where this can be done manually, live parts can become exposed. If it is necessary to open the unit this must be isolated from all power sources. Please take this into account before carrying out adjustments, maintenance, repairs and before replacing parts. The appliance can only be insulated from all power sources if the mains connection is unplugged. Adjustment, maintenance and repairs carried out when the unit has been opened and is still live may only be performed by specialist personnel who are authorized by the manufacturer (in accordance with VBG 4) and who are aware of the associated hazards. Loudspeaker outputs which have the IEC 417/5036 symbol (Diagram 1, below) can carry voltages which are hazardous if they are made contact with. Before the unit is switched on, the loudspeaker should therefore only be connected using the lead recommended by the manufacturer. Where possible, all plugs on connection cables must be screwed or locked onto the casing. Replace fuses only with IEC 127 type and specified rating. It is not permitted to use repaired fuses or to short-circuit the fuse holder. Never interrupt the protective conductor connection. Surfaces which are equipped with the HOT mark (Diagram 2, below), rear panels or covers with cooling slits, cooling bodies and their covers, as well as tubes and their covers are purposely designed to dissipate high temperatures and should therefore not be touched. High loudspeaker levels can cause permanent hearing damage. You should therefore avoid the direct vicinity of loudspeakers operating at high levels. Wear hearing protection if continuously exposed to high levels. MAINS CONNECTION: The unit is designed for continuous operation. The set operating voltage must match the local mains supply voltage. Caution: The unit mains switch must be in position OFF before the mains cable is connected. The unit is connected to the mains via the supplied power unit or power cable. Power unit: Never use a damaged connection lead. Any damage must be rectified by a competent technician. Avoid connection to the mains supply in distributor boxes together with several other power consumers. The plug socket for the power supply must be positioned near the unit and must be easily accessible. PLACE OF INSTALLATION: The unit should stand only on a clean, horizontal working surface. The unit must not be exposed to vibrations during operation. Keep away from moisture and dust where possible. Do not place the unit near water, baths, wash basins, kitchen sinks, wet areas, swimming pools or damp rooms. Do not place objects containing liquid on the unit - vases, glasses, bottles etc. Ensure that the unit is well ventilated. Any ventilation openings must never be blocked or covered. The unit must be positioned at least 20 cm away from walls. The unit may only be fitted in a rack if adequate ventilation is ensured and if the manufacturers installation instructions are followed. Keep away from direct sunlight and the immediate vicinity of heating elements and radiant heaters or similar devices. If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold to a warm location, condensation can form inside it. This must be taken into account particularly in the case of tube units. Before switching on, wait until the unit has reached room temperature. Accessories: Do not place the unit on an unsteady trolley, stand, tripod, base or table. If the unit falls down, it can cause personal injury and itself become damaged. Use the unit only with the trolley, rack stand, tripod or base recommended by the manufacturer or purchased together with the unit. When setting the unit up, all the manufacturers instructions must be followed and the setup accessories recommended by the manufacturer must be used. Any combination of unit and stand must be moved carefully. A sudden stop, excessive use of force and uneven floors can cause the combination of unit and stand to tip over. Additional equipment: Never use additional equipment which has not been recommended by the manufacturer as this can cause accidents.

IF YOU HAVE NEVER USED AN ACTUAL ROTARY CABINET, THE FOLLOWING SECTION DESCRIBES HOW THIS TYPE OF DEVICE WORKS AND WHAT ITS PRIMARY FEATURES ARE:
- Welcome to Hughes & Kettner - Connections and Control Features - Recommended Applications and Standard Connections - Troubleshooting - Technical Data
1. A rotating tweeter in the upper section and a rotating bass woofer in the bottom section. The speakers rotate at different speeds and in opposite directions. This complex motion generates a blend of Doppler effects, phase shifting, ever-changing room reflections and alternating frequency dampening that is responsible for the characteristic sound of a Leslie. 2. Tube amplifiers. The rotating speakers play a decisive role in shaping the sound, but Tube amplifiers are essential to the highly desirable Hammond tone. Originally regarded as a shortcoming, the tendency of tube amps to generate soft, musical distortion at full throttle was soon found to be a highly desirable audio characteristic. Hence the legendary Hammond sound was born. Innovative players found that they could vary the level op distortion within a wide range by manipulating a tube amps volume setting. Classic examples of highly distorted organ sounds in conjunction with a Leslie rotary cabinet include the songs, Born to Be Wild, Whiter Shade of Pale and Smoke on the Water. To this day, the dynamic response of tube amps is unique. No other technology can rival the way tubes compress signals and generate overtones in response to signal level. 3. Breaker switch: The breaker cuts off the power supply to the rotary motor. The rotating speaker slows down until it reaches a full stop. The breaker switch is an essential feature of the TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II. 4. Speed: The two different basic speeds (Slow and Fast) can be varied via the breaker.
WELCOME TO HUGHES & KETTNER
Thank you for choosing the Hughes & Kettner TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II. We designed this device to provide you with a high-quality, tube-driven emulator that delivers the sound and the dynamics of the original rotary speaker cabinet. The TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II is a compact, easy-to-operate signal processor for enhancing the tone of your keyboard or guitar. In addition to these traditional applications, the TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II lets you experiment with a host of other instruments such as synthesizers, bass guitars, etc. and even vocals. The only limits is your imagination. The TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK IIs rotary speed adjustment, control features and handling options are based on the sought-after original tube Leslies of the 60s. Those of you who have used this or a similar device will soon come to terms with the TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II. For those of you who are less experienced with rotary cabinets, this manual provides all the information you need to put a wicked tailspin an your sound. It also contains valuable advice on cable connections and application potions.

We wish you loads of fun and success with your TUBE ROTOSPHERE MK II!

CONNECTIONS AND CONTROL FEATURES

Potentiometers:

Drive: Adjusts the input impedance (gain) and thereby the distortion level. Output: Adjusts the output volume level. Rotor Balance: Adjusts the balance of volume between the tweeter and bass rotary speaker.
consistent tone when you use the Tube Rotosphere purely as a tube preamp. Bypass: Switches the overall effect on and off.

Rear panel:

Input Right/Mono: mono signal input or right stereo signal input jack Sensitivity: -20 to + 10 dB; input impedance 1 M ohms Input Left: left stereo signal input jack Sensitivity: - 20 to + 10 dB; input impedance 1 M ohms Output Right/Mono: mono signal output or right stereo signal output jack Level: 0 to + 12 dB; impedance 3 K ohms Output Left: left stereo signal output jack Level: 0 to + 12 dB; impedance 3 K ohms Mode Switch: Adjusts the impedance and pre-EQ filtering for either keyboard or guitar. Remote: stereo jack for external Bypass and Slow-Fast switch. (tip = Bypass; ring = Slow-Fast switching) Power Supply: input jack for the included power pack (12 volt, 750 mA).
Flashing LEDs: The right LED indicates the speed of the upper rotor, the left LED the speed of the lower rotor. Tube Sat: This LED illuminates at the threshold of tube saturation, i.e. when the signal starts distorting. Effect On: This Led illuminates green when the effect is activated. Slow/Fast: This LED illuminates when the device is set to slow speed.

Switches:

Slow/Fast: Selects the speed range to either slow or fast. A couple of trim pots let you adjust the FAST speed separately for the woofer and horn. These two trimmers are located to the left and right of the BALANCE knob. Use a small screwdriver to adjust them. Feel free to try out different settings for the two rotors and dial in the combination of speeds that you like best. Breaker: The button that controls the BREAKER function was replaced with an on/off switch. While the old model required you to hold the button down with your foot to arrest the rotary action, now you can simply activate and deactivate the BREAKER at the touch of a button. That frees up your foot to operate other effect devices or, in the case of organs, bass pedals. When you stop the rotary action, the simulated woofer and horn always return to the same default position. This ensures that varying rotor positions dont color the sound of the pedal and that you get

RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS AND STANDARD CONNECTIONS

1. Keyboard mono:

Use a cable equipped with standard 1/4 plugs to connect the output from your keyboard to the ROTOSPHERE mono input. Connect the ROTOSPHERE mono output to your keyboard amps input or your mixing consoles Line In.
2. Keyboard mono to stereo:
Connect your keyboard to the ROTOSPHERE input as described above and connect the ROTOSPHERE outputs to the stereo Line In jacks at your stereo keyboard amp or mixing console.

3. Keyboard stereo:

Connect the right and left stereo outputs of your keyboard to the corresponding inputs and the right and left ROTOSPHERE outputs to the corresponding inputs of your amp or mixing console. To dial in clean rotor sounds, set the Drive control so that the Tube Sat LED just starts to illuminate at the loudest volume you intend to use. You can turn the Drive control up further to set the level of tube distortion. Set the ROTOSPHERE Output level control and the gain controls at the mixing console so that the mixing consoles input channel is not overloaded. You do not want the mixing console itself to add harsh, undesirable distortion to the signal.
6. Guitar mono to stereo in an amps FX loop.
If your amp has an effect loop with a mono send and stereo returns, use a cable equipped with standard 1/4 plugs to connect the FX. Send jack of your amplifier to the ROTOSPHERE mono input jack and the ROTOSPHERE stereo output jacks to the amps stereo FX Returns.
7. Guitar stereo in the loop of an amp/rack system:
Use two standard 1/4 plug cables to connect the FX Sends L + R to the corresponding inputs of the ROTOSPHERE and the ROTOSPHERE outputs to the amps stereo FX RETURNS L + R.
8. External Footswitch: 4. Guitar mono to the preamp input:
(We recommend this option only when you do not have any type of loop available in your amp where you could patch in the signal post-preamp.) Use a cable equipped with standard 1/4 plugs to connect your guitars output jack to the ROTOSPHERE mono input. Connect the ROTOSPHERE mono output to your amps input. Please make sure you dial in a high enough level via the Drive control, as guitar signal levels are substantially lower than keyboard signal levels. Set the Mode Switch at first to Guitar Mode. This will adapt the frequency response for guitar applications, somewhat similar to the RED BOX. Check out the sound of both modes and choose the one you prefer. It is not absolutely essential to use Guitar Mode exclusively. The Remote jack lets you connect an external footswitch or MIDI switcher. You can switch the effect on and off (Bypass) and switch back and forth between Slow and Fast. Please refer to the section Control Features to check the pin assignments of the stereo 1/4 jack. Also be aware of the fact that you can only switch these functions remotely when the unit itself is set to Bypass and Fast. With these settings, the switches are Off and LEDs do not illumiate.

TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING: DO NOT USE ANY POWER SUPPLY OTHER THAN THE INCLUDED ORIGINAL ROTOSPHERE AC POWER PACK!
5. Guitar mono to your amps loop through the ROTOSPHERE:
Use a cable equipped with standard 1/4 plugs to connect the FX Send jack from your amplifier to the ROTOSPHERE mono input jack, and the ROTOSPHERE mono output to the FX Return of your amp. The FX loop is located between the preamp and power amp, and has a higher signal level. Subsequently, the effect will have a better signal-to-noise ratio and will sound better.
The ROTOSPHERE is a tube-driven device and draws a great deal of current compared with most pedal devices. A weaker power supply could easily compared with most pedal devices. A weaker power supply could easily overheat, burn itself out and destroy the ROTOSPHERE along with it, possibly causing a fire and leading to further damage and injury. Level problems: If you are using a guitar with this effect, note that electric guitars have low output signal levels and that you must turn the Drive control up to a suitable level. We highly recommend that you
patch the ROTOSPHERE into a loop, as these feed a substantially higher signal level to the effect. Noise: The TUBE ROTOSPHERE is an analog Leslie emulator. We designed it to deliver a sound as true as possible to the original Leslie sound. The integrated tube is primarily responsible for the highly desirable tube tone. But we aware that the way these components are configured and the nature of the rotary effect add an audible noise level to the signal. If you set the Drive control (in other words, they input sensitivity) to a suitable level for the input signal, you will find that peripheral noise remains at a minimum level. Tube: When you switch the ROTOSPHERE on (when you plug in the power pack), the Tube Sat LED will illuminate until the tube has heated up to operating temperature. If the tube is already warm, this delay will naturally be shorter. If the LED does not illuminate, double-check the power pack to make sure it is plugged in all the way. If the LED continues to illuminate for longer than the standard warm-up period, then the tube is defective and needs to be replaced. If you find that the effect generates disharmonic distortion or sounds muddy, in all likelihood the tube is worn out and needs to be replaced. The tube should be replaced by qualified service technicians only. Tip: In mono mode, the left channel will deliver a more intense effect signal than the right (right channel input, left channel output; do not access the right channel output).
NOTE: THE ROTATION SPEED AND INITIAL ACCELERATION OF THE ROTSPHERE ARE FIXED PRESETS BASED ON THE ORIGINAL ROTARY CABINET SPECIFICATIONS. THESE CANNOT BE MANIPULATED, NOT EVEN BY AN EXPERIENCED TECHNICIAN.

Symptoms and solutions:

Distortion is too brittle and edgy (with a keyboard): Check the Mode switch to see if it is set to Guitar Mode, and adjust your mixing console input gain. The output level of the ROTOSPHERE seems unusually low (in mono mode): Check if you are accessing the correct mono input. The effect signal is too loud in comparison to the original signal (in mono mode): Check if you are accessing the correct output (R, Mono). Distortion in Bypass mode: The input signal level is too high. It may not exceed + 12 dB. Reduce the output level of your keyboard, or reduce the Drive control, or both. The LEDs do not illuminate: Double-check that the power supply is correctly plugged in, or check the circuit breakers in your AC current. The LEDs illuminate, but you are not getting a signal: Check the cables and/or the connected instrument. The external footswitch does not work: Pull the stereo 1/4 plug out and set the Bypass and SlowFast to Off (the LEDs located above the switches do not illuminate). Now reinsert the plug. The footswitch should operate as intended.
