Dynamic
The Dynamic Rotary uses the Quadra/FX's dynamics sensing to automatically switch between low and high
speeds. The Threshold level at which the speed changes is set with the Special parameter.

ROTARY PARAMETERS:
Delay: Controls the amount of time it takes to go from a slow spin rate to a high spin rate. The range of this control
is from 0 to 20 seconds.
Size: (Not used.)
Regen: (Not used.)
Decay: Controls the amount of time it takes to go from a high spin rate to a slow spin rate. The range of this control
is from 0 to 20 seconds.
Shape: Sets the volume mix between the rotating low speaker and rotating high horn. The range of this control is
from 0 to 20, with 0 favoring the low speaker and 20 favoring the high horn.
Pitch: Is used in Instrument, Concert, Gated, and Ambient classes. This parameter determines which speed
(either high or low) you are currently listening to.
Speed: Offsets the high and low rotor speeds. The range of this control is from 0 to 24. The normal rotary speed is
achieved when this setting is at 12, but by turning it lower, the speed can be offset to one-half the normal
rate. Similarly, when turned higher than 12, the rotary speed can go up to two times higher.
Width: Sets the stereo-width of the effect. The control's range is from 0 to 10. When set to 10, the outputs are full
stereo and as this control is decreased, the outputs become mono.
Special: In Gated class, Special sets the audio input level (Threshold) that controls the gating action of the effect.
This parameter can be set in 1-dB increments, from 1 to 30 dB below full-scale. Normally, when the input
signal is above the Threshold setting, the rotary effect is muted. With signals below the Threshold, the
rotary is heard. If the value in the Display is preceded by an r (
above the Threshold setting have the rotary effect and ones below do not.
