A 3D Chorus in the Spirit of Iconic 80s Sounds
The 3DDIMENSION CHORUS follows the great tradition of "dimension" choruses that defined the 80s: an effect less "wavy" than a classic chorus, more spacious, more wide, with a sense of depth that remains musical and easy to integrate into a mix. Here, the idea is not to drown the signal in modulation but to add an extra dimension: a stereo-perceived presence, a subtle halo, and an elegant brightness typical of the clean sounds from that era.
Designed to capture this aesthetic without complexity, this pedal focuses on immediacy: you choose a preset and play. No fine-tuning for hours, just ready-to-use settings that cover the most common needs, from simple thickening to a broad and lush chorus.
For Whom, Which Styles, and In What Contexts?
The 3DDIMENSION CHORUS is aimed at those who want to enrich their sound without getting lost in settings: beginner guitarists seeking an immediately flattering result, as well as experienced musicians who want a characterful chorus, quick to activate live. It is a natural ally for clean and light crunch sounds, and an excellent way to broaden a rhythm part without masking the attack.
Style-wise, it shines in pop, rock, new wave, funk, indie, and all genres where a spacious, "studio" clean is desired. It also works very well alongside reverb or delay for more airy textures, while maintaining comfortable clarity in a mix. On stage, its "4 presets" format is a real plus: you switch from a discreet chorus to a more pronounced effect without having to adjust anything with your foot.
4 Presets, Zero Hassle: A Pedal Designed to Get Straight to the Sound
The philosophy of the 3DDIMENSION CHORUS is simple: no speed or depth potentiometers, only a 4-button selector system. Each button corresponds to a predefined setting, carefully calibrated to remain musical, avoid excesses, and offer truly usable variations. In practice, you get four intensities/voicings ranging from a "just right" chorus (to thicken a clean tone or add subtle relief) to a more substantial chorus for wide arpeggios, brighter chicken-picking, or more enveloping pads.
The analog BBD circuit provides that particular grain: a smooth modulation, a "velvety" sense of movement, and a more organic sound than some digital approaches. Finally, the True Bypass ensures that when the pedal is off, your signal remains intact-an essential point if you want to preserve your guitar's dynamics and your amp's personality.
The Sound
To the ear, the 3DDIMENSION CHORUS stands out by a sensation of width and depth rather than an obvious vibrato. The result is full, lush, and very "clean," with a character that is both rich and smooth. Where some choruses heavily emphasize modulation to the point of being very present, this one favors a smooth and elegant effect: you hear your playing, but bigger, as if the sound gains in relief.
The dynamics remain pleasant under the fingers: the attack is clear, chords keep their definition, and the sound easily integrates with very different base tones. If you like 80s-style "studio" cleans, rhythms that fill space without bleeding, or arpeggios that instantly gain breadth, this is typically the kind of chorus that brings a smile from the first measures.
