FROMEL ELECTRONICS SERAPH CHORUS


"The Seraph - True stereo analog dimensional chorus. Seraph is the most lush sounding chorus available, with rich, shimmering tones across the full frequency range.
The original chorus that the Seraph was modeled after only had four preset modes for “rate” and “depth” that could be individually selected. In contrast, the Seraph retains the original four modes, but allows them to be combined for a wide range of 3D, spatial chorusing sounds. In addition, although most stereo chorus effects just send the dry signal to one channel, the Seraph has two delay lines making it true stereo".






   
Based on the discontinued BOSS DC-2 Dimension C chorus, It's a chorus pedal for people who don't like chorus pedals. (That includes me, but I do like phasers).

Whats the difference in a Chorus and a Phaser?
A "Phaser" modulates by a filter, so its a modulation effect is caused by running the same signal "out of phase".It splits the guitar signal and shifts one path out of phase by from 0 to 360 degrees through the entire range of the frequency spectrum, and blends it back with the dry path so the moving in-phase/out-of-phase or "swooshing" effect is created.
"Chorus" is created by ever so slightly delaying and de-tuning your signal and running it parallel to your dry signal.It's short delays used to create harmonically spaced notches and peaks in the frequency spectrum that are manipulated to modulate more tightly above and below specific frequency ranges, rather than shifted to "swoosh" broadly up and down the entire spectrum.










This effect is a custom stereo in/out version of the Seraph with Input Buffer, CV control of the LFO. It also boasts fast and slow modes and switching between manual control of the rate/depth of the chorus or pre-sets "modes.
