It's fairly easy to use.

You can get lots of different chorus sounds out of this pedal, but to find the right chorus sound it might take you a few minutes.

Sound Quality : 7
I use lots of different guitars and amps (mostly Les Pauls and Fenders going through an Ampeg Superjet SJ-12T).

The Chorus pedal is not weak at all but can be a little overkill at real high settings.

One bad thing about the pedal is this pedal will make some really weird sounds when the battery is fixing to "die".

Reliability : 8
I've had the pedal for about 2-3 months now and I've went through 3 batteries within a very short amount of time (less than a week and with very little use and unplugging the cables to the pedal when not in use).

I fixed the problem with just using an AC adapter.

I've never had to deal with them but their website is great.

It has lots of information on their products, etc.

I got this pedal used (really good buy) and the pedal didn't come with a manual but the website had the manual on there, so I printed it out.

Overall Rating : 8
It's a really nice chorus pedal ... I just wished it wouldn't eat the batteries the way it does.

i play professionally 5-6 days a week all over the US and bought this so i could have a convenient backup amp(because this does the modelling thing)but it was microphonic.i hope this concept catches on and the quality of the product gets better.

This pedal is pretty easy to use. It operates like most chorus pedals. The speed adjusts how fast the chorus is, the depth how deep and the wet level how loud.

The knob that took some time to get used to is the Voice knob since this is not typical in most chorus pedals. However, it is what makes this pedal unique in my opinion.

The one thing that caught me off guard is when the voice knob is in minimum postion. The wet signal is in one channel and the dry in another (this is how the first boss chorus and the roland JC work). If the wet level is not all the way up the channels do not sound balanced in this mode. That took a little figuring out.

Sound Quality : 9
The voice knob seems to be the real power in this pedal. As you turn this knob up it adds in voices of chorusing to make it sound thicker and like more voices are playing together. Anyone should be able to find a chorus sound they like by finding their "sweet spot" on this knob.

You can get everywhere from a basic stereo spread (voice knob at min and wet level at max into stereo channels) to a nirvana/modern rock sound (voice knob at 11-1 o' clock-ish) to a thick, lush chorus for a smooth jazz or new age sound (voice knob all the way up). Like I said, anyone should be able to find a chorus for them. This is truly the most versatile chorus I have played in a pedal. It even rivals the TC Chorus I've played.

Reliability : 8
Seems constructed well enough. It has a metal chassis. I would use it with a power supply to be sure it doesn't go out at a gig.

Customer Support : No Opinion

This pedal is great. It really is a lot of bang for your buck. You can rival rack choruses with this pedal. I like chorus to get just a little stereo imaging and this does it. I also love hearing myself play through it with the voices cranked. It makes me sound awesome. The tone is beautiful.

Not much to say here. 4 knobs which are pretty straight forward.

Sound Quality : 10
The Voice knob is very cool through my guitar setup (Charvel custom>Boogie Mark IIC>Boogie 2x12 Cab) . At the minimum setting it is just like my Boss CE5 and it only gets thicker from there. Running stereo into a board for recording clean guitar and setting the Morph between 12 and 4 o'clock, the sound is huge.

Reliability : 8
No problems yet.

The support people I have talked to before were very helpful with my old 2101.

Overall Rating : 10
Cool pedal. Best chorus I have ever used, including an old TC pedal.
