SONICAKE Chorus Pedal Chorus Guitar Pedal Guitar Effects Pedal Classic BBD Analog True Bypass

I am a musician that has been performing for 30 years on the stage, in the studio and stage on a a professional. I have a degree in guitar performance and I play everything from classical, jazz, bluegrass, rock, pop, etc...I have owned approximately 75 pedals currently and have owned twice as many through the years. Yes, I am addicted to shopping for guitars, pedals, amps....you get the point. I am going to first talk about the build of the pedal. It is in a small 3.5" x 1.5" x 1.5". It is built like a tank in a durable metal casing. It does have 3 plastic knobs that have rubber rings around them. I am guessing this is used for both gripping and turining the knobs comfortably and to protect them. It also has a regular size knob in the center that is common on many pedals on the market. That being said, the hardware is great quality and I believe this pedal could withstand the day to day abuse from a professional performer for years if not a life time. The build is simply very high quality for the price. I first decided to try this pedal using a clean sound. It has the following 4 adjustable functions:1. "Sense" knob - The large knob in the middle. It acts as a tone filter/sentativity for the sound. Turn the knob all the way to the left and you get a really throaty wah sound and as you turn the knob to the Right the tone brightens. As you pick softer you get more of that "Cry" sound. I found a good sweet spot for a wah sound was this knob between 10 to 11 o'clock. This could be different depending on the guitar and amp etc...you are using.2. "Freq" controls the frequency. I like this knob a little before 12 0' clock3. "Decay" I found this knob sounds best turned all the way to the right for a more intense wah sound.4. "Pres" Presence knob - acts just like a presence knob on an amp. Fine tunes and smooths out the sound. I liked this best at 2 o'clock.The above settings for each knob was what worked for me as far as getting a professional wah sound. Now, as I experimented with turning the knobs, I found I could get synth like swelling sounds to actually using the pedal as an equalizer to get more of a muted sound for jazz tones or get more of a "Fuzz" sound running it through disortion. I also found I could use the pedal to "melow" the sound and make my bridge pickup on a Les Paul sound like the neck pickup on a tell or a neck pickup on a Les Paul itself. I could get a lot of different cool tones just from this tiny pedal. The sensativity of each of the knobs used to change each setting are very sensitive and usable unlike other higher end auto wahs or filter pedals I have used in the past where I could not tell whether turning the knobs did anything. This pedal is especially great for funk and syncapated rifts where dynamics are needed to help accent certain notes or making different percussive sounds in between notes or chords. This pedal I will be using for live performances and studio. When I purchased it, I did not plan on using it except as a toy to play with per say and wasn't expecting how professional, clean, and sturdy this pedal is. This pedel is true bypass and there is no drop in the volume when engaged. No popping, no fizzle, and the sound does not manipulate the original signal that can cause the intergrity of your sound to change. Summary: This pedal is as sturdy as it gets. Super versatile as it can be used as a auto wah, equalizer/filter, synth tones, etc... Professional sound quality and sounds better than pedals I spent 4 plus times for. I have owned auto wahs from the popular cock fight pedal (which I returned), to all the major brands and have refused to use any of them for live or studio use. Most I have returned and have just stuck to a wah pedal. This pedal can really free you up to move around on stage and will use it for live and studio performances. I will buy another one so I can have two different settings I can utilize while performing live without adjusting the knobs and since it is so small it does not take up a lot of space on my people board.Note: I will update this with a video when I get a chance to video and record the different uses I found intriging about this pedal.

Sounds are fun and pretty good quality with a solid variety. The knobs at the top are very small and hard to adjust for me.

I play acoustic guitars in a duo with my husband, who plays electric. He has alot of fancy effects for his electric, but I have never used effects on my acoustic before. I saw the Sonicake Cloud Chorus and listened to Youtube videos that were demoing different chorus pedals. I ordered the Cloud Chorus, and I ordered 2 other chorus pedals so I could try all three out with my acoustics. The other two pedals were a TC Electronics Afterglow, and a MXR M234 Analog Chorus. I immediately fell in love with the Sonicake pedal because it was super quiet - absolutely no noise coming out of the unit and coming thru the amp. The chorus is beautiful on my acoustic. I use it now on several songs and love it. It makes my old Gibson sound lush and so amazing! Also, the pedal is small, but hefty. IT feels solid and feels like quality. It's easy to use. The light tells you when it's on, and the knobs are self explanatory. It's perfect for me and my acoustic sounds beautiful in large venues. I love it so much I have just ordered the Sonic Wood multi-effects unit for Acoustic, so I can experiment with other sounds! I'm sold with the Sonicake products so far!

The big is extremely versatile, but dialing in good sounds in each of the effects requires a lot of tweaking on the knobs. This becomes a real problem when, say, you want to move from the chorus sound to the auto-wah, where the settings for each will be vastly different. On top of that, I have no idea why the makers decided to make the text for the effect types red text on a black background. It makes it nearly impossible to pick a effect type without putting your face 2 feet away from the pedal. You can forget about being able to read anything in a low-light situation. That means that in any meaningful jam or live situation, this pedal can only be used on one good effect that you already have dialed in.More on the effects: the auto-wah sound is great, one of the two chorus sounds is good. Those two effects can be at almost any setting and sound decent to good. The rest of the effects are really sensitive, with an almost guaranteed garbage sound if you pick them using settings dialed in for another effect. I really wanted to use the flanger effect, with roaring "jet-engine" like sounds, but the oscillation frequency is really hard to dial in well, as the sweet spot is somewhere around 8 o-clock, with a little bit cc-wise being basically no oscillation, and a little bit clock-wise being really fast oscillations.I wanted to like this pedal so much, but honestly, it's not *that* useful. It's functionally just one pedal in a live scenario. I suppose one could just get so much practice dialing in the settings that you could memorize your way around it, but with so many dials to memorize, it doesn't seem worth the effort. I think it could potentially work ok for recording purposes, but if you're recording, size and versatility isn't really a problem in the studio, so you might as well use an actual flanger/chorus/phaser/whatever pedal.

I don’t write reviews I got this cheap pedal so I can play ziggystardust with my solid body Gretsch Nashville to get that iconic intro chords riff this pedal got me pretty dang close !!! I’m very happy if it broke I’d buy another one sounds good with other music

Compré este pedal cuando aún estaba experimentando con diferentes efectos. Este efecto con distorsión me gustó tanto que terminé comprando un Boss OC5.Basta decir que este pedal suena indistinguible del modo vintage del OC5.

This was purchased by me and not part of any promotion/deal/discount.As a music teacher and owner of a music school of over 400 students, it's amazing the amount of equipment you need. Sometimes you need to make big, expensive and important purchases and sometimes they're inexpensive and niche; much like this pedal. I literally wanted to prove to the students that in Seven Nation Army, what they think is bass, was played on a guitar with an octave effect. So I bought the Sonicake Octaver pedal. Of course, I use it for much more than that.The Octaver pedal is definitely well built and is solid metal construction. Like most mini pedals these days you've got a couple of smaller knobs and one big knob. The big knob selects the "dry"ness of the signal, meaning if it's off, you won't hear your original guitar or bass signal. The Octave 1 knob (upper left) brings the signal down one octave from your original sound. The more you turn up the DRY knob, the more original signal you'll mix with the Octave knobs that are active.I'm using this primarily for Bass, as I found the Octave 1 mix provides a "synth" bass style sound that works great for today's pop tunes. But it also gets a lot of use during some metal tunes as well if I require that deep low end coverage that a regular bass can't achieve on its own.There are some artifacts and octave bouncing if you're holding single notes, especially if you crank up the Octave knobs.A very interesting and worthwhile pedal if you're in the market. It didn't break the bank and it does the job it is supposed to do. This is the only Sonicake pedal I've purchased but I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more in the future as I'm impressed with the overall sound quality and value of this one.

El pedal en verdad me parece muy bueno, "levanta" bastante el sonido de la guitarra (Fernandes Monterey, es la que tengo) con algún otro pedal o sola.Lo malo: no me llegó el cablecito "que venía incluido".
