as any other simple chorus i own a TC electronic SCF Stereo Chorus Flanger and a Fulltone Choralflange Pedal and this is much better by far, it doesn color your signal besides the effect, its very quiet, and crystaline, deep and subtle enough as u always dream in a chorus
This is the chorus of landau, thompson, henderson, and oz noy in their live setups! need more recomendation?

Is the best sounding chorus in a pedal, it only is superated by expensive rack chorus (Tri Stereo Chorus 618) and other similar

Very simple to use and to get very different shades out of one pedal. The guys at EWS (part of Xotic efx or not, I don??t know) added the true bypass switch and changed (among other internal things) the stereo to mono switch to work as a switch between chorus and vibrato. The manual is the original and it is useless, go and find your sound for yourself, there is no one bad sound out of this pedal.

I own a Mesa Boogie Lonestar and a big variety of PRS, FEnder and Gibson guitars with a pedalboard at my feet that includes what (after 25 years of playing) I consider the very best pedals that I know. The Arion is in the same ballpark in tone and mojo with the rest of these efx. Through the years I??ve had various chorus pedals including the TC and I got to the point of giving up with modulation as a result of frustration for not getting a nice tone with it, it was too much o nothing at all, no chorus efx sounded good with all the guitars until I bought this EWS Arion and because of its brillant vibrato and Leslie sounds I now see myself using modulation more than ever! If you like Michael Landau modulated stuff this is it, Andy Summers? this is the pedal! I love it, no noise, very good even with overdrive!

It feels solid as a rock in my pedalboard and it will stay there for years to come!

The best pedal I??ve tried, period. Go buy one for yourself. As my Eternity Kanji or my Pigtronix Echolution this is no cheap pedal, but it is certainly worth the price for the rewarding sound you get, very sexy and present chorus, vibrato and leslie sounds from one pedal, perfect!
