Retro-Sonic Stereo Chorus
Brands:
Offering Distinctive lush chorus, amazing vibrato, the RetroSonic Chorus Ensemble is the only true reproduction of the 1976 CE-1 using the original analog BBD.
This pedal provides the distinctive lush chorus, and true pitch-shift vibrato, of the late seventies “CE-1” using the same analog BBD as the original unit. The Chorus Ensemble’s unique tone is the standard by which all other chorus effects are measured. The Retro-Sonic Chorus is capable of a wide range of sounds from analog chorusing to pulsating vibrato, having the unique Vibrato feature that was incorporated on the original which can simulate a Leslie rotating speaker. The chorus and vibrato functions are selectable through a footswitch control, allowing desired presets to be maintained separately.
