UTILIZATION

The config is super simple manual is useless, it works as a pedal base, 4 knobs and off you go
I put 9 because I think she is a little hard to snap so it may be some discomfort or live in groups but hey it's still a minor problem.

SOUND QUALITY

So that's where it gets interesting, the chorus is just a killer, nothing to do with all the digital shit that can be found on the market.
I would not say that all the world chorus on this pedal are present but this is by far the best I've ever had in my hands rather then saying under their feet.
The main advantage is that we here in the analog so you can "scratch" and look with much greater possibilities for hours to find his sound. The blend can mix the different functions of the pedal resulting in a chorus very very dense. The effect is really stunning, it may as well have the typical sound of Prince on the intro of Purple Rain to the sound of Come As You Are by Nirvana, and many others of course.
I read on another review that it was not a very 80's chorus, well it's totally wrong !!!!!!
If it lingers a bit on this little gem can be typically 80's sound you really tweak the blend to have full control of the craft.
Ah yes I use it for info on electric as acoustic (Gibson Les Paul Custom and Gibson J 160)

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using it 2 me just as well say that I have not yet tapped a quarter of the possible sounds of this pedal
I had a lot of those there before chorus including digital home by Boss cons this one is my first analog chorus say it all day and night with what I have before.
The price / quality ratio is pretty good even though the entrance fee into the club Maxon remains fairly high (around 200 euros in nine) with the chorus but I'm not going to change except maybe for his big brother CS-550 that I have not yet had the pleasure of testing.
Of course I do it again this election, I already eyeing the entire range maxon including flanger and compressor but hey we will have to sell some other pedals before that I think
