How does a chorus pedal sound?
On electric instruments such as guitars, chorus sounds like the same signal running through two amps with a very slight delay between them and an ever so subtle pitch difference. Chorus pedals can be very helpful in fattening up the tone of acoustic-electric guitars whose piezo pickups tend to sound a little thin.
Why do chorus pedals have 2 outputs?
This is because a chorus pedal will essentially take your guitar’s signal and split it into two. While one of those split signals will remain unaltered to retain some of your pure unaffected tone, the other signal will be slightly delayed and pitch-modulated/detuned.
Is a chorus pedal worth it?
A chorus pedal is a great way to create thicker sounds from a single signal. By taking your source signal, doubling it and setting the second signal slightly out of tune and time with the first, a chorus pedal can create the sound of two instruments playing simultaneously.
Is a chorus pedal necessary?
No one really “needs” any pedals. If you love chorus, then get one. Variety makes the world go round.
What comes first phaser or chorus?
Traditionally you want your phaser first, then flanger and chorus in whatever order after that. But there’s nothing wrong with putting your chorus first and phaser last. That’s how neat sounds get created. I’ve had my chorus before my phaser for years.
