ÒThe Empress is a three-dimensional modulation machine, and when you couple its vast array of sounds with absolutely wicked
construction Ð and some cool graphics Ð youÕve got one of the drippiest sounding chorus/vibrato pedals ever made.Ó (Guitar
Player, May 2008, Empress Chorus)
Velocity: Super stand-still slow to freaked out fast.
Mix: As clean or as chorusy as you like.
Depth: from a delicate flutter to a sickening swing.
Stereo Out: Harness her to 2 amplifiers and stand in
between themÑone will carry the dry signal and the other will carry the
wet. The chorusing occurs in the air between the amps.
Internal slide switch: The Empress Chorus pedal has 2
different input stages. A slide switch chooses between them. The effect
pedal is preset to the Medusa input stage setting. The other position
provides a little more boost and slightly different tonal response.
Feel free to try both.
Switching: The Empress stereo chorus and vibrato pedal uses
True Bypass switching. When she's not turned on she's just like a piece
of guitar cable (A lady's allowed to have some quirks!)
Power: The Empress Chorus runs from either a 9V battery, or
from an external 9V supply, via a 2.1mm socket.
