JHS Emperor Chorus Vibrato Pedal
Guaranteed Safe Checkout:
In 2014 JHS released the Emperor V1, a 100% analogue chorus/vibrato with tap tempo, and the Emperor V2 builds on it. The pedal is voiced to closely match the sought-after sound of the Arion SCH-1, using a 3207 bucket-brigade chipset for the warmth of '80s-style analogue chorus, while adding enough control to cover a subtle sheen, a convincing rotary-speaker style sound or full seasick vibrato. A mini toggle switches between chorus and vibrato effects, with three selectable waveforms — sine, square and triangle — and Volume, EQ, Speed and Depth controls covering the rest of the tone shaping. The V2's passive Tone control has been replaced with an active EQ control that works as a tilt, adding more tone-shaping range without losing low end, a common issue with chorus/vibrato pedals.
