Subject:RE: Motion sound Gas Pedal

FWIW, I had a Gas Pedal for 6 months and never used it once, so I sold it on
eBay. The only reason I had it was that it came with the R3-147 I had
bought. A properly set up Leslie (or tweaked Leslie sim) when ramping up to
Tremolo and slowing back down to Chorus is just about the coolest sound on
the planet just the way it is. People keep trying to "improve" the Leslie,
like there's something *wrong* with the original design. I just shake my
head.
