CR-1000 Chorus
Dive into the warm, shimmering world of the Storm CR-1000 Chorus, a Japanese analog gem from the late 1980s. This unassuming pedal packs a punch, harnessing the classic charm of a bucket-brigade device (BBD) to craft a lush, vintage-inspired chorus that's as versatile as it is captivating. At the heart of the CR-1000 lies a meticulously tuned BBD circuit, delivering a modulation character that's both smooth and pronounced. Dial in the Depth knob to control the intensity of the chorus effect, from subtle thickening to deep, undulating swells that breathe life into your tone. The Rate knob lets you explore a range of pulsing speeds, from languid sweeps to shimmering, rapid-fire oscillations. But the real magic happens when you blend the wet and dry signals using the Level control. This allows you to seamlessly integrate the chorus into your sound, whether you're seeking a cavernous, atmospheric wash or a sparkling, three-dimensional shimmer. The CR-1000's buffered bypass ensures your core tone remains pristine, even with the pedal engaged. Housed in a compact, molded plastic enclosure, this unassuming stompbox belies its sonic prowess. Its classic Japanese OEM design may be simple, but the tones it conjures are anything but. From dreamy clean passages to lush, modulated leads, the Storm CR-1000 Chorus is a must-have for any guitarist seeking the timeless allure of vintage analog chorus.
