Retro-Sonic Stereo Chorus / Vibrato

Brands:

$299.00

The new RetroSonic Chorus/Vibrato pedal provides the distinctive lush chorus, and true pitch-shift vibrato of the late 70's “CE-1” with many additional features using an analog BBD to provide the vintage  Chorus Ensemble’s unique tone. This modernized take is faithful to the original circuit, but features a blend control, the CE-1 preamp hi/lo function, separate rate/depth controls and a built buffer which you can toggle for vintage or modern mode.

 

The Retro-Sonic Chorus is capable of a wide range of sounds, from analog chorusing to pulsating vibrato. The unique Vibrato feature that was incorporated on the original nicely simulates a Leslie rotating speaker. The chorus and vibrato functions are selectable through a footswitch control, allowing desired presets to be maintained separately.  

 

Features:

​

  • Chorus and Vibrato effects selectable by footswitch control

  • Mono and Stereo Outputs

  • Overall Level control to adjust perfect unity gain

  • Blend control

  • Speed indicator LED for Chorus/vibrato setting

  • Switchable buffered input

  • Powered by 9VDC adapter (not-included)

  • Uses MN3007 BBD  

  • Noise Killer circuitry to eliminate noise generated in the BBD.

  • Level: Controls the over all volume of the effect.

  • Chorus Rate: Adjusts the speed of the chorus when in chorus mode. *note: With the depth set to fully clockwise, this control acts as the original “Intensity” control on the “CE-1”, controlling the intensity or amount of chorus applied to the incoming signal.

  • Vibrato Rate: Adjusts the speed of the vibrato when in vibrato mode.
