    Good tool

    Chorus pedal stereo or mono analog, classic 9V (it's a BOSS pedal so no worries).

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration is very simple, the name of the knobs acts manual so if you have the manual as you use it to light your barbecue! The desired sound is obtained fairly quickly so it's not bad. The Chorus pedal does not really useful if you use it in stereo with 2 amps so! But everyone does not have that luxury so no tip-top on that point.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The chorus is good, but does not break three legs to a duck instead. The sound is not warm or soft. In short, I am not conquered even if it does the job ... The only configuration where it really pleases me is when I pair with my o…

    SOUND QUALITY

    The chorus is good, but does not break three legs to a duck instead. The sound is not warm or soft. In short, I am not conquered even if it does the job ... The only configuration where it really pleases me is when I pair with my old Big Muff Pi! Here it does.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I was offered it there a year and a half and frankly it serves me little, as soon as I need a little space on my pedalboard is usually the first pedal flying. I tried a few chorus before I get supply and it is not at all the best! But not the worst either (chorus Elypse is much worse, for example). Considering the price on occasion it's a good value for money to discover the chorus effect. With experience, if I were to buy a chorus I would not make that choice, I would prefer the MXR Micro Chorus.

    PS: For accuracy I have the old model of this pedal, so there was not yet the filter above.

    Digital Chorus! SoRIE stereo.

    UTILIZATION

    The settings are those expected of a chorus!

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are quite realistic and satisfying but a little "fine".

    OVERALL OPINION

    Chorus versatile but not enough present for me. PDAL is a good but not a legend like other Boss pedals ....

    I use this only for its clear and relatively rare, so for my 80th I am fully satisfied

    edit: APRS 1 year of use, your exact is still good, it's soft, clean, I leave the same note, I am satisfied with the pedals, it amliore much I clean.

    Decent.

    Boss CE-5 Chorus EnsemblePublished on 06/30/11 at 12:20
    Boss has been pretty much the leader in guitar guitars for the last 30+ years. They have built decent sounding pedals, some winners and some losers, but most of there units have been very low priced. This has been a policy that has pretty much kept them on top of the pedal market heap for many years.

    This pedal is a decently sounding and pretty inexpensively priced which allows many guitarist to try out this unit. The pedal have four control knobs that control the EQ of the pedal. Along with a sub control behind the filter knob that allows control of the highs and lows of the filter.

    Boss CE5 Stereo Chorus Ensemble Pedal Specifications

    Dimensions (WxDxH): 2 7/8 x 5 1/8 x 2 3/8 inches (73 x 129 x 59 mm)
    Weight (approx): 1 lb (450 g)
    Included Accessory: 9V battery
    Optional Accessory: AC Adaptor


    SOUND QUALITY

    This pedal is great for subtle chorus all the way up to a lush almost flanger type tones. This pedal has a decent range of motion with the EQ but nothing that is like the Tc Electronics corona chorus. Comparable to that pedal this thing is clinker box that doesn't have the sweet warm that the Corona has.

    I like using this pedal in a high gain amp for some good lead chorus lines that has a enough modulation to cover some of the open gaps in the electric guitars distortion range. This give s more sustain in the single notes lead lines and fills in a lot of the tonal gaps.

    OVERALL OPINION

    At new these pedals come in at around $99, which is a great price for a decent sounding pedal. I would argue that the best priced chorus pedal on the market is the little yellow one from MXR. That one is priced around $80 and it is tru bypass which this pedal is not. You can shell out another $30 and get the Corona from TC Electronics and have a much more usable and warm pedal.

    A good pedal ...

    I'm not going m'tendre: standard format Boss rglages a classical chorus, with level, depth and rate, plus a presence of rglage Bass / treble. Dual output for the stereo (no test) and a standard 9v power supply (no idea of the longevity of battery.)

    UTILIZATION

    Relatively simple to use. I was looking for a chorus gnraliste enough, and enough "Lger", not something too typ (EHX the exit for me, just to taste) So, the CE5 suits me. I 'd really a very bad memory of Boss pedals, and the latter' m really satisfied. It is the standard Boss, the knobs, the case, the look, nothing fantastic or very new, but that is solid and not cheap. Question

    SOUND QUALITY

    sounds, not super deep, even all the knobs back. Moreover, the range includes other Boss chorus more typs. In any case the CE5 does his job: belle chorus clarity of atmosphere, or Lger flanger.Il be cut to realize that he brought the magnitude of the plays prsence.Je jazz rock, and I have a set of pedals with Plutt "upscale" the Boss holds the road well. Last point which i was very very positive attention: I have seen no background noise or interference, and yet I'm picky about the thing. I use this pedal

    OVERALL OPINION

    2 years ago: it's a great pedal, Boss value sre home, like a DS1 or a Digital Delay . I think the price is reasonable quality report. I probably would do this choice, even if I admit that chorus a little more "typ" tempts me from time to time (a MXR but not the same price).
