ambient Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 What's the difference between it and the 'normal' analogue chorus ? Anyone compared them ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazWills Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) not compared, but i have the blue analog chorus, and i think it sounds fantastic, really lovely pedal, a slightly softer version of the boss ce-5 to my ears. recommended, unless you want the flanger option of the bass version...

dudewheresmybass Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 The bass chorus has the flanger option, it will leave the low end intact while only effecting the high frequencies. The effect on light also pulses relative to the speed selected via the rate knob. This does sound like I'm sold on the bass chorus, but I'm currently using the Zakk Wylde chorus ( analog chorus with a different paint job ) on my board. I need to spend some more time with the bass chorus before I decide to jump or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Thanks for your replies. Only asking 'cos I see there's quite a big price difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) I'm interested in this discussion also. Been checking out a few YouTube videos for each and I can't say I'm convinced about the flanger option on the bass deluxe version. I'll probably be more inclined to go for the analogue chorus myself.

With the Toneprint editor you can create a Flanger sound and have it as your Toneprint on the pedal, along with the Chorus and Trichorus options.

1976fenderhead Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1396201923' post='2410925'] Thanks [/quote] Forgot to say there's a catch though, the FX Level is unassignable, so it always controls FX Level, which means if for example you set the Tone knob to control Feedback, you're one short to control Delay Time by comparison with the Vortex pedal. You can set any knob to control up to 3 parameters though, but that starts getting messy. Basically, you could achieve a better sound than the MXR's Flanger with the Toneprint editor, but it better be set and forget on most parameters because you won't be able to control as many on the fly.
