The Dyno My Roto is yet another featurerich modulation box from the mad scientists at Keeley Electronics , this one based on Chuck Monte ’ s Dyno-My-Piano mods to Rhodes pianos . Keeley extracted the venerable Tri-Chorus in addition to Rotary and “ Rotoflange ” modes . These modes all come standard with Rate and Depth controls as well as a Proximity control that acts like room reverb .
Based on the most sought-after amp circuit , the “ D ” style amplifier , the Golden Acorn shoehorns all of that tone into a tiny 1590A sized box . The Golden Acorn is , like the D , based on Fender Blackface amplifiers but adjusted in a way to wring all the tone possible from the components . The Ratio control acts as a “ pickup selector ” with sweet spots depending on the guitar .
The Magnetic Effects Zola is an ultrahigh voltage booster that gives players superior headroom and tone sculpting . The Zola uses a charge pump to increase the voltage to 30 volts from a standard nine-volt adapter for the clearest tone imaginable . The Zola also features an active two-band tonestack to accentuate the frequencies you want .
