The Chorus Echo is inspired by the classic Roland Chorus-Echo from the 1970s. This unit combines both analog-style delay and chorusing, but includes new features like stereo width control and a dedicated ‘Dirt’ control for a more gritty sound.

Range: 0 to 100%
- RATE
Controls the speed of the pitch modulation.
Range 0Hz to 8.8Hz
- DEPTH
Controls the amount of pitch modulation.
Range: 0 to 100%
- MODE
Four modes are available which determine the character of the Chorus/Echo. The first three modes are time-based, ignoring the host’s tempo. The last mode, BPM, is based on the host’s tempo on a wide variety of note values.
CHORUS 1
Based on a very short delay range with a maximum value of 100ms.
CHORUS 2
Longer delay, up to half a second.
ECHO
A very long delay, up to 2 seconds.
BPM
Delays based on musical values and host tempo
- INVERT
Inverts the delayed signal, making it out of phase with the original signal.
