Module Reference · Motion & Modulation

Chorus

The Chorus stacks up to six modulated voices with tempo-syncable rate, stereo spread and bidirectional feedback for a flanger-tinged edge. Jitter adds random motion so the ensemble never sounds like a clean LFO on repeat.

The BBD switch re-voices the whole module as a bucket-brigade device - the dark, gritty, slightly wrong character of vintage analog chorus chips - while wet-path filters and a low guard keep the shimmer out of the bass.

Why it hits different

The GhostWare take.

  • Six-voice ensemble with humanizing jitter.
  • BBD mode nails the dark analog-chip character.
  • Low guard keeps bass tight while the top shimmers.
