Behringer has announced the release of the Chorus Symphony, a vintage-inspired modulation pedal that pays homage to the iconic sound of the Roland Jazz Chorus amplifier.

Chorus Symphony

The Chorus Symphony boasts an all-analog BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) circuit, a hallmark of classic ’70s modulation effects. This circuitry, renowned for its rich, warm character, has been faithfully recreated to deliver the thick, syrupy, and multidimensional chorus and vibrato sounds that have graced countless hit records.

It is based on the BOSS CE-1 pedal from the 1970s.
