Suggest me a chorus

Re: Suggest me a chorus

I have to say I hate that
Chorus lol. From Demos I'm digging the mxr black label chorus, tc elec corona and the dreamscape pedals.

The boss pedal is intriguing but idk about it. I'm not a have fan of boss pedals. Anyone tried the way huge chorus ? Pros / cons?

I use a Whammy pedal's detune setting for my chorus. That being said, in addition to the toneprints on tc's stuff, you also have access to a toneprint editor, allowing you to dial in your ideal core chorus tone to taste.

Exactly my thoughts as well. That pitch detune chorus effect is too cool, it actually has no modulation speed just the illusion of detuning the notes slightly. I have got to get another Whammy V I miss that pedal so much, the 5th harmonizer modes are amazing. I thought my latest modeler adventure would allow me to replace some pedals, man that never works out I must have bit that apple a few times.
Whammy V, though kids, outstanding pedal, polyphonic tracking, no glitch outs like the old Whammys. So much you can do with it including that *****in' chorus detune. tc makes great stuff, they keep coming out with new stuff that is just amazing. Seen that new SubNup pedal? I just got a message on that new Walrus Audio Octave generator pedal, wow, daddy want.

The super is a different beast to the classic ce2. I reckon for your needs, a Boss Ce-3 will do it. Ce-2s are pricey but you can easily mod a ce3 to sound as good. One cap change will give you a fatter bottom end like the ce2, but the very 80s ce3 sound did not happen by accident. Roland engineers thinned the low end out specifically for that 80s hifi sound. Plus you get stereo for serious 80s action. See how you like it, fatten it up if you need to, or flip it on ebay for what you paid and you wont lose out.

whats the diff tween the ce2 or 3 and the CE5? anyone know? I have the CE5

For modern day "retro" analog.

That does not break the bank...

Mxr micro.

Dont let the one knob fool you. Has quite a few great sounds in there.
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

I think I'm gonna go with the corona. I just dig the idea of being able to swap out tone prints whenever I want
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

I love doubling with very little modulation. I don't like things sounding warbly and out-of-tune.
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

ive actually decided to sell my Golden Cello to get the Chorus. I think id rather have overdrive and delay independent from each other. Once that sells Ill def let you guys know how i like it. Theres one for sale here on the board and im hoping to get my hands on it soon.
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

I keep thinking stomp boxes. I forgot that I have a rockman chorus unit. Only drawback, is Id pretty much have to have a designated amp just for it tho.
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

What I've been digging about the Catalina is the expression idea, where the depth of the chorus changes in response to dynamics in your playing. Didn't realize how cool that was until you realize you can keep it on all the time and your quiet parts always have chorus and the loud parts don't, without having to press the pedal.
 
Re: Suggest me a chorus

I'm looking for a very specific type of chorus sound. Think 80's metal chorus..ala def leppard hysteria and a lot of iron maiden type chorus tones. I've owned a boss chorus but it wasn't getting me the times I was after. I wanna keep this pedal down around 100 bucks new or used. What are the suggestions you guys have for me ?

I play an esp eclipse with a jb/59 combo and a tele with a bareknuckle piledriver set through a Randall solid state.
