This is a Chorus, it was replacing in its time Dimension C (analog DC-2)
The first digital chorus Boss, if I'm not mistaken.
Made from March 1988 to August 1993.
Made in Japan, of course.
This chorus wore two name under an electronic meme:
1- Digital Dimension
2-D Digital Space
4 Knobs
-Effect Level
-EQ
-rate
-depth
-1 In
-2 Out (stereo)
USE
Turn the knobs and see the changes.
Simple and effective.
SOUND QUALITY
Digital couleure is not as marked as current models (CE-5 / CH-1), it gives me a very good point.
It sounds clear, limpid subtle air, spacial but never cold.
A chorus that sounds really apart is its strong point.
Typed? yes ... and no ..... hard to say.
Chorus is delicate, subtle, precise.
This is a chorus of ambience, it spatialized sound, it adds dimension.
The DC-3 is very similar to the chorus of the TC-SCF (old I specify, not re edition).
Even putting the bottom knobs sound does not seem too "tortured / detune" it's still very musical and exploitable.
With lower settings, the effect is present and ... Abscent difficult to décrire..faut try it, it's the best way to realize this.
But once deactivated, then no prob, making realize that it is disabled.
Some like a chorus that is present, who "hear" well.
I understand you because like me when using a Boss CE-2, CE-3 Small Clone (among others).
We love this creamy presence, velvety, thick.
With the DC-3 grain chorus is completely different but equally good, it does not sound cold despite the digital technology.
Moreover it is very transparent and does not blow, no non dynamic of loss and is not slightly comic bass like a good old CE-3.
I possess a chorus

Boss CE-3
EHX Small Clone
HomeBrew Electronics THC
Rocktron Tsunami Chorus
TC Electronics original SCF (sold but used a long time)
The DC-3 is left of the best he has given me to hear (chorus completely different), but sounding incredibly well.
Nothing to do with the big brothers Vintage grain level, but there have not with the current CE-5 and CH-1.
THE DC-3 explode them both fingers in the nose, it's hot, the base grain is much better qualitée, nothing to see, despite the parentage of the technology used.
NOTICE GLOBAL
I tried a lot and have a chorus, and the DC-3 is left of the best chorus ever.
I think using it with a classic chorus one and the other connected to a Boss-LS-2, to enjoy two different grains and couleures for clean sounds.
A subtle chorus, discreet and delicate, dimentionnel, in-room who brings an air sound, spatial audio and a more vintage EC type-2 in order to benefit from two completely different couleures
Unlike the analog references, it is not thick, velvety and deep.
No, but it is not cold at all, however, and its grain is beautiful and very delicate.
Offers no problem as good chorus even see better than the TC-SCF period, is nevertheless it is "only" Boss.
A great chorus, a must is personal and subjective, but for me one of the best if not the best digital format chorus stomp box.
And for good chorus, in principle I am rather picky and quite difficult.
Try it, proves to be a killer in stereo with an electro-acoustic
It is unacceptable that Boss will re not publish such pedals, I do not understand!
they probably sell a lot given the qualitée sound delivered by this chorus.
there is a safe bet that sales of CE-5 / CH-1 would collapse.
