EP-18 Chorus
The EMA EP-18 Chorus is a must-have for any guitarist looking to add a lush, shimmering dimension to their tone. Inspired by the iconic chorus units of the 70s and 80s, this pedal delivers a rich, organic chorus effect that can instantly transform your guitar from a dry, monophonic signal into a captivating, three-dimensional soundscape. At the heart of the EP-18 is a meticulously-designed analog circuit that uses bucket-brigade delay chips to generate the signature chorus effect. As you turn the Depth knob, you'll hear the intensity of the chorus modulation increase, adding a mesmerizing ebb and flow to your notes. The Rate control allows you to dial in the speed of the modulation, ranging from a slow, undulating pulse to a rapid, shimmering shimmer. What sets the EP-18 apart is its ability to maintain clarity and definition, even at extreme settings. Many chorus pedals can muddy up the low-end or introduce unwanted artifacts, but the EMA engineers have crafted a circuit that preserves the core of your guitar's tone while weaving in the chorus effect seamlessly. This pedal has been a secret weapon for countless studio musicians and live performers, including the legendary Steve Lukather, who relied on the EP-18's lush, dimensional tones to craft his iconic guitar parts. Whether you're looking to add depth to your rhythm parts, create ethereal lead lines, or simply explore new sonic territories, the EMA EP-18 Chorus is a must-have addition to any guitarist's pedalboard.
