Some effects are not just "colors": they are sonic signatures. The chorus of the Juno-60 synthesizer is one of them, associated with an immediately recognizable aesthetic, from silky pads to sharper new wave-typed sounds. The JUNE-60 CHORUS follows this tradition by offering a faithful recreation of this lush chorus, with a deliberately old-school approach: no screen, no endless settings, just the essentials to regain that wide grain that makes the sound "breathe" and open up in space.
Whether you want to bring an 80s vibe into a modern rig, add depth to a too-smooth clean tone, or achieve that subtle movement that makes chords "sing," this pedal has a clear goal: character above all, with immediate playability.
The JUNE-60 CHORUS is aimed at guitarists who want an expressive and musical chorus without spending time fine-tuning settings. Its format and philosophy suit both beginners (who want flattering results with two presses) and seasoned musicians looking for a characterful chorus to complement a vintage-oriented pedalboard.
In terms of styles, it shines in genres where modulation should remain wide, smooth, and inspiring: pop, indie, new wave, funk, alternative rock, post-rock, ambient, but also modern blues when you simply want to thicken the clean tone. In the studio, it adds depth without complicating the recording; live, it allows you to switch from a direct sound to an enveloping texture in an instant. And if you play in stereo (two amps, audio interface, or two console inputs), the stereo mode can transform a "centered" sound into a true soundscape.
The pedal relies on a 2-knob interface designed to get straight to the point: the idea is not to drown you in parameters but to provide immediately usable chorus voices, with that typical 80s movement. The fully analog BBD-type circuit contributes to a more organic modulation, with a sense of texture and a slight, very pleasant "warmth" on a clean sound.
A mono/stereo switch allows adapting the pedal to your setup: in mono, it simply fits between guitar and amp; in stereo, it aims for a more immersive chorus experience, particularly effective on arpeggios, open chords, or very dynamic clean parts. The true bypass preserves signal integrity when the effect is off, an essential point if you like to recover your raw sound without coloration.
Finally, the "stage-oriented" design is felt in the metal chassis described as "built like a tank", ready to withstand rehearsals, transport, and tight pedalboards.
Expect a thick, silky, and enveloping chorus, with that "lush" side that immediately gives a sense of width. On a clean sound, the JUNE-60 CHORUS can range from a subtle movement (ideal for adding life to chords) to a more pronounced modulation reminiscent of vintage synth-pop and retro soundtrack textures. On a slightly crunchy sound, it adds depth and a sense of space without necessarily becoming aggressive.
Its strong point is musicality: the modulation remains coherent, flattering, and responds well to right-hand attack variations. If you like very defined clean sounds, it adds a "3D" dimension; if you are looking for a signature effect, it can become a central element of your sonic identity, especially in stereo configuration.
