The Classic Chorus functions as any chorus does with a Level knob for volume, Depth knob for the

amount of the effect you desire, and a Speed knob for how fast the effect modulates the signal. The

Bypass switch with red LED indicator for ‘on’, is a true bypass switch which helps prevent signal

degradation. By engaging this switch you turn the effect on or off. The Vibrato switch, engages the

Rate knob which takes you from a Chorus effect in a counter-clockwise position, to a Vibrato effect in

the clockwise position….plus everything in between. The Speed, Depth and Level knobs are universal

for both effects. The pedal can be powered by a 9v battery, but we recommend a regulated 9v power

supply (like our Big John 9 Volt DC Power Supply).

For light Chorus effect, set the Speed knob at 9
O'clock, the Depth knob only about 12 O'clock, and
with the Level knob set the match the bypassed
level.

The Vibrato switch, engages the Rate knob which

takes you from a Chorus effect in a

counter-clockwise position, to a Vibrato effect in

the clockwise position….plus everything in

between. The Speed, Depth and Level knobs are

universal for both effects.

You will notice a distinct drop in your highs, but

Carl says this is intentional….it will keep your

sound warmer and rounder, plus, when you use

this effect with Distortion/Overdrives it won’t fizz

out or die, you will just get that massive overdriven

chorus/vibrato effect that you always dreamed of

For a faster chorus effect turn up the Speed knob

to 1 O'clock or more, the Depth knob up to 3

O'clock to get a deeper and more extreme

sounding effect.

engage also the Vibrato switch, set the Rate at
