CR-1 Chorus
Seeking a taste of '80s chorus magic? Look no further than the MSL CR-1, a compact pedal that channels the iconic tones that defined a generation of guitar music. This analog mono chorus is a faithful recreation of the revered Boss CE-2, a true classic that lent its shimmering modulation to countless hits. At the heart of the CR-1 lies a pair of vintage bucket-brigade chips - the MN3007 and MN3101 - which work in tandem to produce the warm, organic warble that has become synonymous with the golden age of chorus. Dial in the Rate knob to control the speed of the undulating effect, while the Depth knob allows you to shape the intensity, from subtle warble to lush, expansive swirl. Despite its budget-friendly construction, the MSL CR-1 punches well above its weight, delivering the same rich, enveloping tones that graced the rigs of new wave, post-punk, and synth-pop luminaries. Plug in, tweak the controls, and let the CR-1 transport you back to the sonic landscape of the '80s, where chorus was king. Whether you're chasing those nostalgic vibes or simply seeking to add a touch of vintage-inspired modulation to your sound, the MSL CR-1 is a practical and affordable way to harness the magic of classic analog chorus. Its compact form factor and straightforward controls make it an easy addition to any pedalboard, while its close sonic resemblance to the Boss CE-2 ensures it will become an indispensable tool in your sonic arsenal.
