a good little chorus
« on: June 25, 2009, 10:22:51 PM »
i dont want anything super rare or boutique unless its SUPER good value.
I want to use a bit of chorus at my bands next gigs, but its only going to be for one riff, so i want something with great value for money, dont mind if its short on features as long as it sounds good.

help me out chaps

analogue or digital? the tonerider one's pretty nice for £67 if you want an analogue one, I know several of the other members here have one too (twinfan told us all about them) :)

I've heard good things about the Digitec Chorus Factory, several in one. I might get one myself... seen them new on the Bay for £65 ish.

the H20 looks a bit too much for me,
the tonerider looks good. i just looked up electro harmonix and nothing there takes my fancy.

Tonerider is superb - it's on my board.  Sounds just like an old Boss CE-1 but with true bypass.  They're a bargain  :)

i think im gonna go for the tonerider, im also thinking about replacing my dd-3 with the analog delay.
that means all my pedals will be true bypass, im not so much into the pops i get from my tuner, but the ubder has a bypassable fx loop which is handy, ive not played with that yet.
my avenger (the amp of choice) has no loop. doesnt seem to be a problem mid tune when i kick my wah in, but when im not playing i do get pops when i engage pedals.

wow, tonerider has an analog delay now? or at least, one in the pipeline? Sweet. Almost regretting getting that daphon one now (well, not quite, was hard to go wrong for £17.50 :lol:)...

if they'd just make a wah now, that'd be awesome :D

Woah ...... hold everything.   Has to be the Danelectro Cool Cat Chorus.  At about £25 -£30 it is a steal.

But ignore the price, it is also a great chorus pedal !!    Metal case, true bypass and chassis-mounted jacks too !!

the tonerider is excellent, and maybe you'll end using it on more than just one riff!
Mule, MQ, Stockholm, CS, RY, MM, PK, ANB, CNB, AWP, CWP, PiG90...

too many? ;)
