HomeBrew Electronics THC

The HomeBrew Electronics THC is a high quality chorus pedal designed for use with electric guitar, but suitable with any electronic instrument. The pedal is standard in make up, consisting of 1/4" TRS connections for input and output, and nine volt power supply requirements. It isn't rackable as it is an effects pedal that is controlled by your foot.

UTILIZATION

The overall make up of the HomeBrew Electronics THC is quite easy to follow. It has simple parameters that are often seen on chorus pedals, so if you've got some experience with pedals like this, everything will be pretty self explanatory to you. If not, everything is really basic anyway and you should be able to figure it out without any help from a manual. It simply has parameters for depth, width, and speed...

SOUND QUALITY

Like all of the pedals I've used from HomeBrew Electronics, the THC pedal sounds absolutely stellar. It has a super clean sound quality, and there is a good amount of versatility available between the three parameters, each of which can greatly effect the signal depending on which way you set it. I've used the pedal with a Fender Telecaster and a '65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, and the sound that I get within this chain is clean and realistic. Definitely one of my favorite sounding chorus pedals currently on the market.

OVERALL OPINION

While this is a pretty straight ahead chorus pedal, the HomeBrew Electronics THC offers a lot that most chorus pedals do not, and that is with sheer, clean sound quality. It doesn't have any extra noise added to the mix, as it has true bypass. Nothing about using the pedal is hard, making it easy to zero in on the exact tone that you're looking to achieve. While you're going to pay a bit more for the THC than you would let's say a Boss pedal, the difference is clear, both in build and sound...

Mono chorus pedal "vintage"
Full analog
one in one out and the power plug (on the side). provide the same kind of power as a boss
Three knobs:
depth: depth of the effect
speed: speed modulation
Width: it controls the width of the chorus, it adds dimension and warmth to the chorus
Sturdy metal case like a tank!
a lead flashing depending on the speed of the modulation

UTILIZATION

The manual can not be shorter 1 / 4 sheet a4
Editing sounds is quite simple if we play on the depth and speed (like any good old chorus) but once the width gets involved the use is not so intuititve it.
It may be a search for what you love (not that the sound is bad, it is rather hot), but the range is very wide, and the settings are fine.
but after several hours of haggling that should no longer be a problem.
If you have questions about the product you have to do is send an email with homebrew and the 8 hours you have the answer this way the media is on-line!

SOUND QUALITY

The pedal a little boost and treble sound but this is not disturbing at all for my oreilles.Je used in my chain of effects for my guitar baritone.
Everything is possible as this chorus pedal, the light chorus to come as you are with the depth and speed at max width andTHE at least we have a tremolo depth ... with the shutter speed to a minimum and width at the bottom was a slight flanger ... The possibilities are numerous
I love!

OVERALL OPINION

The best chorus I've tried
I tried several analog and digital chorus (ibanez, behringer, boss, ross, Electro-Harmonix ,...), it's my favorite.
It's the high end ($ 239 pedal).
I bought used for cheap on AudioFanzine
The value for money: quality has its price. It is a rare pedal Used
but if you have the opportunity to test it you will not be disappointed
