Classic Leslie in a Stompbox Neo Instruments packed their renowned Ventilator rotary speaker simulation technology into a compact guitar pedal form factor. But while they shrank its size, they super-sized its sound quality. The micro Vent 122 and its twin, the micro Vent 16, are packing crazy powerful DSP just like their bigger siblings, Ventilator II and mini Vent II. Neo Instruments even added a new circuit — analog blend — which allows for latency-free parallel processing of the wet and dry signals. Delivering killer sound in an attractive, roadworthy housing, Neo Instruments' micro Vent ups the ante for rotary emulation effects pedals.Shining twins The micro Vent comes in two flavors: the micro Vent 122 (black) and the micro Vent 16 (white). But aside from color, what's the difference? Rotary sim fans and tonewheel mavens at GearNuts will have already guessed: deriving its algorithm from the acclaimed Ventilator II (very
