JHS Emperor Analog Chorus/Vibrato Pedal

There are two ways to look at the JHS Pedals Emperor Analog Chorus/Vibrato pedal. One is as a vintage-correct effect that absolutely nails the hard-to-find sound of the Arion SCH-1. The other is as a do-it-all modulation solution whether you want a subtle sheen, convincing rotary simulation, or seasick vibrato. We suggest you pick the latter. The Emperor utilizes a Bucket Brigade 3207 chipset to deliver the warmth of ‘80s-style analog chorus pedals. And then we added enough onboard and outboard control to put you in command of every aspect of the Emperor’s voice. Whether spreading its warm chorus tones to a pristine-sounding stereo rig or utilizing an external expression pedal to cop realistic rotary speaker sounds on a blues gig, the Emperor can do it all. We call the Emperor an analog chorus/vibrato. But that’s just because calling it a true analog chorus/pitch vibrato with tap tempo/waveform selection/rotary speaker simulation/true stereo output/and more pedal would have been a pain to write every time. To control the rate of the Emperor’s effect, simply turn the Speed knob up and down or tap the tap tempo footswitch. Or for the more adventurous among us...plug in an expression pedal for variable control in real time. And you can even slave the pedal to other tap-controlled pedals for rhythmic consistency across all your effects.
