Think you’re well-stocked with chorus effects? Think again. Choric could provide you with a whole new galaxy of creative potential
> For whatever reason, chorus tends to find itself on the less ‘cool’ end of the effects hierarchy. While many clamour over flavoursome delays, spacious reverbs and snarling distortions, chorus tends to generally get lumped in with those that are relied on to generate ’80s-leaning sheen.
However, chorus offers a great deal more than just a helping of shimmering cheese, and can be used to add thickness to synths, leads, basses, drums and vocals. It’s an underappreciated way of bringing out more character. Deeper interrogation of just how these processes are working can open up even further sound-morphing possibilities. It’s this type of wide-ranging modulation that Choric, the latest plugin from Caelum Audio, spotlights.
