How to Select chorus pedals: The Comprehensive Guide

What are chorus pedals used for?

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?

A chorus pedal may be all you need, whether you seek a thicker amplified sound, you're an acoustic guitarist looking for a warmer sound, you desire to liven up your clean sound as a rhythm guitarist, or you're hoping to thicken up those screaming lead lines as a shredder.

What is the difference between chorus and flanger?

The two biggest differences are these: The delay times used in a chorus pedal are usually much longer than those used in a flanging device. Flange delay times typically sit somewhere in between 0.5 and 15 milliseconds, while chorus lurks in the 20ms to 50ms range. That's a big difference.

What effects do Metallica use?

Metallica are well known for using Mesa/ Boogie amplifiers such as the Mark IIC. James is also known to play the Roland JC-120 for his clean tones.

Does Hetfield use pedals?

For the “Ride the Lightning” album, James used the Ibanez Tube Screamer TS9 overdrive pedal in combination with the Marshall JCM800 amp. Reportedly, this is the only album where he used this classic device.

Did Jimmy Page use a fuzz?

Tone Bender Fuzz Pedal One of the pedals Jimmy is famous for using is the Tone Bender. This pedal is a classic fuzz that grew in popularity during the 60s and 70s. It was favored by players like Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck as well as Page.
