I would like to obtain a chorus sound like the one in this file:

I don't know exactly which BOSS model choose, may you help me to choose it and also how to obtain THAT sound?
Thanks. |

Hi Fabius - I have been doing a little "chorus war" for a while,and finished last night.
1st round - CH-1 vs. CE-2 vs. CE-3. Winner: CE-2
2nd round - CE-2 vs. CE-5 (analog). Winner: Both! CE-2 is very transparent and shimmering, but CE-5 has the ability to get thicker. seems to have more "reverb" and you can adjust the tone.
3rd round - CE-2 & CE-5 vs. Voodoo Lab Analog Chorus. Winner: Oh man, getting tougher...the VLAC was the most transparent and clean but very subtle (for me)...then the rest as above...
I'd say...CE-2 |

I've thought CE-2 too, but isn't easy to find or to find it at a good price...  |

| That sounds like an 80's chorus to me... in which case it's not a matter of the chorus pedal, but how the sound was obtained. A guitar (most likely a Strat, on a single coil setting) was probably DI'd, via a compressor and chorus, straight into the mixer. |

I quote entirely what you wrote it!
- Strato or a single coil p.u.
- maybe a rack sound
- compressor
Yes, it's a 1988 record.
Congratulations.

Way-hay! Child of the 80's, I am...
OK...so to get that sound...If you're going to DI, then use a CE-2 or CE-5. The brightness you get from not using an amp will bring you that 80's ultra-bright sound.
If you're going to use an amp, then the CH-1 is the way to go. That's a very sparkly chorus pedal! |

My son born in 1989 (like CH-1).
I've must to use an ampli... a Marshall... I think that will not clean as that sound.
I saw an used CH-1 in a shop before XMas, I'd to inform 'bout the price. |
