Description
Features

Retro-Sonic Chorus. This pedal provides the distinctive lush chorus, and true pitch-shift vibrato, of the late seventies “CE-1” using the same analog BBD as the original unit. The Chorus Ensemble’s unique tone is the standard by which all other chorus effects are measured. The Retro-Sonic Chorus is capable of a wide range of sounds from analog chorusing to pulsating vibrato, having the unique Vibrato feature that was incorporated on the original which can simulate a Leslie rotating speaker. The chorus and vibrato functions are selectable through a footswitch control, allowing desired presets to be maintained separately.

Chorus and vibrato effects selectable by footswitch control
Mono and Stereo Outputs
Overall Level control to adjust perfect unity gain
Heavy duty foot switch
Speed indicator LED for Chorus/vibrato setting
Powered by 9VDC adapter (not-included)
Uses MN3002 BBD as original CE-1
Noise Killer circuitry to eliminate noise generated in the BBD.

Controls:

Level: Controls the over all volume of the effect. Rotate clockwise to increase output volume.
Chorus Rate: Adjusts the speed of the chorus when in chorus mode. *note: With the depth set to fully clockwise, this control acts as the original “Intensity” control on the “CE-1”, controlling the intensity or amount of chorus applied to the incoming signal. (Thicker sound as you rotate clockwise).
Chorus Depth: Adjusts the depth of the chorus when in chorus mode
Vibrato Rate: Adjusts the speed of the vibrato when in vibrato mode
Vibrato Depth: Adjusts the depth of the vibrato when in vibrato mode
Normal/Effect Switch: Stepping on the switch turns the effect on and off
Chorus/Vibrato: This switches between the chorus and vibrato effects.
Chorus/Vibrato LED: Just like the original, this LED will flash in accordance to the speed setting of the active chorus or Vibrato effect.
Stereo: Output jack to connect to the input of a second amplifier for stereo use (wet/dry signal out)

Emperor V2

In 2014 we brought you the Emperor V1, a 100% Analog Chorus/Vibrato with Tap Tempo. Now in 2018 we are proud to bring you the Emperor V2! There are two ways to look at the JHS Pedals Emperor Analog Chorus/Vibrato pedal. The Emperor V2 is a vintage-correct effect that absolutely nails the hard-to-find sound of the Arion SCH-1...but its also a do-it-all modulation solution whether you want a subtle sheen, convincing rotary simulation, or seasick vibrato. It utilizes a Bucket Brigade 3207 chipset to deliver the warmth of ‘80s-style analog chorus pedals and we've added enough onboard and outboard control to put you in command of every aspect of the Emperor’s voice. Whether spreading its warm tones or icy sheen to a pristine-sounding stereo rig... or utilizing an external expression pedal to cop realistic rotary speaker sounds on a blues gig, the Emperor can do it all.

VCR

The VCR is the result of a collaboration between PaxAM, Ryan Adams, and JHS Pedals. The VCR brings you the sounds of Ryan Adams most recent albums where he has the perfect 80s reverb and chorus vibe with the breakup of his amp breathing life into every strum. With simple controls and the ability to engage all three effects with one stomp, you’ll find yourself a prisoner of tone when you are rocking the VCR. So let’s pop a tape in the VCR to see how it plays…

Warped Vinyl HiFi

Originally conceived to simulate the effect of a warped vinyl record, but that only scratches the surface of what Warped Vinyl HiFi can do. This “true pitch” analog vibrato/chorus pedal features an all-analog signal path that can be dialed in to create limitless palette of vibrato and chorus. Warped Vinyl HiFi has several changes from previous versions, including a lag knob for lush chorus tones, reduced noise, and opportunities for more transparent and brighter tones. Further, every knob and switch is connected to a little digital brain while your guitar signal stays 100% analog the entire time and never gets digitally processed. Since the control of the effect is digital, it opens up unprecedented effects and features that have never been heard or offered in analog stompboxes.

Gemini Chorus

Float away with the liquid, swaying effects of this state-of-the-art stereo chorus pedal. The Gemini Chorus offers three types of deep, hypnotic chorus. Classic mode creates a single voiced effect that conjures subtle and creamy tones from the first wave of 1970s chorus pedals. The thick and rich Dual Chorus provides a smooth, yet animated double voiced effect. The lush and spacious Quad chorus recaptures that ‘80s vibe with its less than subtle rack system sound. Once you’ve found your chorus, dial in the sweet spot with the onboard Mix and Tone controls.

Sea Machine

he Sea Machine is a chorus pedal with as many modulation possibilities as there are fish in the ocean. That’s a lot of fish. And a lot of modulation. From subtle, shimmery chorus sounds, to wobbly, seasick, warbly pitch-bent detuning that rocks the boat, the Sea Machine is the audio bait that’ll help you reel in the big one. The Sea Machine ain’t no one-trick seahorse. A variable waveshape LFO (adjustable via the Shape control) modulates your chorus tone from a smooth triangle shape, to a rough and choppy square wave, and an extended delay line allows you to dive deeper into uncharted modulated waters than ever before. Other LFO controls include Rate, which sets the speed of the LFO, and Depth, which sets how strongly the LFO modulates the delay time.
