New Élkorus - analog chorus unit

via jordi

"My tech Sergio has put together a major revamping of the élkorus, a 1U chorus effect that you posted some time ago [all posts]. It is basically a reproduction of the circuit, involving vintage TCA-350 bbd ICs, of the ensemble effect featured in the ARP solina string machine.

Among the improvements, it can process stereo signals now. Plus, CV ins and outs have been added, with the interesting possibility of creating a chorusy effect modulating external VCOs.

However, the nature of the effect remains unchanged from v.1 - he's still using fully analog circuitry.

Sergio has updated his site as well, all the technical info is there, as well as audio samples: www.synthoma.net. Scroll down for a translation." Note these are available for sale.

"The élkorus is a chorus unit that emulates the classical "ensemble" sound of those string machines from seventies. That emulation is not achieved by any DSP technology or software. The élkorus sounds analog because is really analog." more info here (scroll for English).
