"I picked up an analog bi-chorus last year with the true stereo option and the 3-position DEEP toggle switch which changes the frequency spectrum of the chorus. I've found it to be very impressive on guitar, synth and (my favorite application) CP-70. It really nails the late '70s to early '80s chorus sounds I love (think Peter Gabriel's "Melting Face" album).
Officially, it's an Electro-Harmonix clone by design, but it was sufficiently Boss/Roland-ish for me to ditch my Boss CE-300. Like any analog chorus, it can get a bit noisy at extreme settings, but the payoff is in the quality of the sound. The DEEP toggle is really useful when you're trying to find just the right chorus for the source.
While I've never used a real Dimension D or CE-2, the UAD-1 plug-ins are also fantastic, unlike any other chorus plugs I've every used and better than the chorus sound on most outboard digital effects units I've ever used."

"I own several of his pedals and they are worth every penny. I'm in the process of getting this pedal and this is considered to be THE best chorus pedal you can get your hands on today. The design is based on the Electro Harmonix Small Clone but Analogman worked with the original EH Clone designer and was able to improve on the circuitry to come up with an even better pedal than the small clone.
For the same money of the Analogman chorus, i could pick up a vintage Boss CE-1 which is considered the holy grail of chorus pedals, but then there is always the issue of it failing because of its age.
Glad to see pedals included in MS for once!"

Hi,
ReplyDeletewhat's wrong with the Boss CE-300? The form factor (rack unit) or the sound? I really do not understand why people are still after a Dimension D or a Boss CE-1 while the CE-300 can be purchased for quite cheap at the moment.
If someone can elaborate about the differences in sound, I would be interested.
Thanks
Xavier
