Top-notch pedal finish, it is simple, analog, and allows very fine modulations as long as it is set correctly. For me, a reference chorus.

This pedal is an EXCELLENT CHORUS.
Arrival of the package first good surprise, the pedal is well protected with a small foam that protects the buttons, not just thrown in the box like other pedals. The pedal is really very small, much more than I imagined, the paint is beautiful, a beautiful lagoon blue and without scratches. The small LED seems solid, the Rate knob too but the Level and Depth knobs should be handled with more care. The construction inspires confidence, seems solid and neat. Standard 9v jack, power supply not included, no surprises. Only small functional drawback, the switch to activate the effect is a bit stiff and produces a loud "clack" but fortunately not in the amp. Speaking of amp, how does this little blue box sound? Good, it sounds good, very good even. The sound is very warm, very wide and airy it literally comes to life when the effect is activated. It's velvety, very soft, magnificent. The effect is VERY versatile, you can go from something subtle to something very... Psychedelic. The settings are intuitive and respond very well, you immediately find the sound you are looking for. I recommend finding a setting for level and depth and then fine-tuning with Rate to save the two previously mentioned knobs. On clean sound it's a killer, really. On saturation I'm a bit more mixed. Let's say the rendering is always good even in saturation the sound is beautiful, but you have to face an audible loss of gain coupled with a boost of the highs as soon as you activate the effect on the saturated channel. Rest assured it doesn't jump to the ears but you perceive it, especially for a solo: a small boost would be welcome and would solve the problem. For the rest the pedal is very quiet as long as you put it in the effects loop, otherwise it hums a little but I'm sure a noise gate would solve that. To conclude I would say that it is an EXCELLENT CHORUS, which certainly has a few small defects but which has a real particularly pleasant sound signature, and in terms of quality/price/sound ratio this pedal is probably the best you can find on the market. I recommend, buy it with your eyes closed.
