Title: Total Recall - Little difference Btn Chorus vs Vibrato Mode
Post by: dlblumberg on March 04, 2020, 10:55:47 PM
Hi there,

Do most people hear a significant difference between the two modulation modes - chorus and vibrato?  With mine, for some reason, any difference is virtually undetectable.  Is that normal?

Thanks,

David

I can definetely hear some difference in the 9v version I built.
It also changes the speed a little bit if I'm not mistaken.

I can't remember which one of the settings, but there is one where it gets much nastier at higher speeds (rubber band like), whereas the other is ok. It depends at which setting the modulation is set. I like to use it full on when using the max. delay time.

That's all it does :)

So if you're not hearing a change in modulation speed with the mod knob up, something's not right.

Yes, but should one hear a conspicuous change of speed?

Thank you,

David

Well, I'd say so, it's 1Hz vs. 4Hz but I suppose it's not a massive change, it is subtle but definitely a useful change of speeds depending on how your delay is set.

Tricky question to answer as it's subjective but there should be a noticeable difference... if you set things to a more modulation based setting rather than delay (Delay CCW, Blend 50%, Feedback CCW, Mod CW) is it more obvious?

Hi Scruffie,

Yeah, actually I do notice it now.  Not a super audible change, but when I do focus strictly on the speed, I can hear the change.  I think I had just been looking for the wrong thing before - like, say, a wider modulation as opposed to the faster modulation.

Thanks,

David
