I recently saw the planned knob layout for Fulltone’s CFV-2, a flange/chorus/vibrato that I’ve been interested in for some time. It’s mighty cool. But, EHX is cooler. And, EHX has the Polychorus, which is sort of going in the right direction. However, what I want is for EHX to make a chorus pedal that puts the Fulltone to shame. A chorus that puts all of them to shame. And, here are the criteria:
Analog. Do we need to ask why?
Obviously more features than a teenager’s facial profile, let alone the CFV-2.
As knob-happy as necessary.
Stereo In and Out
Expression pedal inputs. Depth, rate, blend, and some others to be determined at a later date.
Build quality that Lexus couldn’t hope to achieve in their wildest dreams.
A cool name and paint scheme that covers the entire case, thank you.
I would say to make it tube-based, but that would just be silly.
I know I’m reviving my own dead post, but I have some new ideas on this chorus to rule them all:
I’ve seen what Strymon is doing with digital. It’s wicked awesome, but it is not analog. I’m still all for analog, but if you have to go digital, go full in like they do.
Envelope chorusing. I like the idea of an attack-driven effect, sort of like the Q-Tron.
I’m not picky on the color scheme, but since most chorus pedals I’ve seen have been blue, we’d best incorporate blue into the mix somehow.
I think ehx should make more envelope driven effects; consider an envelope driven pitch shifter- you play a note, and it detunes in time with the volume to the desired range.
EHX through zero flanger. i keep saying it. re-do the flanger hoax to make it usable and without all the freakish oscillation and stuff. phat tape flanging, chorus, vibrato etc can be had in there. and i demand it to have envelope controlled flanging as well.
