Guitar Effects, the Chorus Pedal

Another guitar gadget that can be used is the refrain. These guitar effects where individual sounds with roughly the same timbre and nearly the same height converge are then converged to be played as one. When you play these sounds, none of them seems wrong or false. Instead, the sound is enriched further strengthened. This is not what would normally occur if the sound came from a single source. This effect is evident in the sounds that are maintained for long periods.


The chorus is something that normally found in string instruments. The time to listen to a group of strings, the instrument sound like a choir of angels singing, hence the name of the effect. And since the guitar is, of course, a stringed instrument, the chorus is one of the best effects that could be applied to the instrument. The chorus effect and help improve guitar sound that comes from different eras, put a little bit away from each other, apparently from different places, such as in the case of a full band.

Of course, the effect can be simulated on a computer. Normally, guitarists have a pedal similar to saturate the distortion that can be activated by pressing the pedal. The effect can also be applied for the treatment of recorded music in the recording studio.

When the chorus effect is applied, the processor receives the audio signal of the instrument and allows mixing with delay modulated tone and replicas of himself. These sounds are moderated replica below. The effect, in turn, becomes a bit similar to the flanger. The difference in this case would be the times are longer and there will be this reaction.

Sometimes the chorus effect on the guitar would be built. There are models of acoustic and electric guitars that allow you to use the chorus effect with just a flick of the switch. And as mentioned above, the effect can also be applied for the subsequent treatment of the song. After recording music, you can put the desired effect when you make changes to the room. Ultimately, adding further delays and completely rearrange the room. Some chorus pedals also provide other related effects such as chorus, reverb and delays are added in.
