Product Description for the Red Witch Empress Chorus Pedal

Not just any ordinary analog chorus/Vibe pedal.........
The Empress offers unparalleled chorus options; an infinite number of analog chorus/vibe devices in one box...

Her most enticing feature is the unique voicing control;
this dial allows you to access virtually any chorus sound you could desire! It changes the delay time – it’s on a pot so you’ve got an infinite number of chorus pedals in one box – from super spanky sparkling clean to noisy, sea-sick inducing, pitch bending wobble.

We’ve designed a circuit that lets you adjust the delay time via a potentiometer – from one extreme to the other and everything in between. In it’s most extreme settings the device will produce some hiss – this would be expected within the last third of the voicing controls sweep.

Features

Mix – This determines how much wet signal is mixed in with the dry. Wet to the right, dry to the left.

Depth - Allows you to control the depth of the effected sound

Voicing - This dial allows you to access virtually any chorus sound you could desire! It changes the

delay time – it’s on a pot so you’ve got an infinite number of chorus pedals in one box – from

super spanky sparkling clean to noisy, sea sick inducing, pitch bending wobble.

Delay time determines a big part of any chorus units tone/flavour/sound - short delay creates a very

pristine, airy chorus whereas longer delay time gives more ‘wobble’ and ‘throb’. Unfortunately virtually

all devices available only have one fixed delay setting – or at most a choice of two or three.....

We’ve designed a circuit that lets you adjust the delay time via a potentiometer – from one extreme

to the other and everything in between. In its’ most extreme settings the device will produce some

hiss – this would be expected within the last third of the voicing controls sweep.

Velocity - This dial allows you to select the speed of the sweep. From Stand Still Slow to Ring-moddishly Fast.

Vibe/Chorus Switch - Choose between Chorus or Vibrato mode. When in vibrato mode you can use the voicing

dial to choose from gentle, subtle pitch shifting through to wild semitone leaps. The voicing

control functions in vibe mode the same way it does in chorus mode – it shifts the delay time.

Nasty or Nice – you choose.

Stereo Out = The lower left socket .The Empress loves to function in stereo – harness her to two amplifiers and stand in

between them – one will carry the dry signal and the other will carry the wet. The chorusing occurs

in the air between the amps. Neat. If you find the wet signal to be louder than the dry simply switch the vibe/chorus

switch – this will reduce the output of the wet signal.

Bright switch - This allows you to access some more sparkle on the more shimmery settings (Set

voicing anywhere between 7 o’clock and 11 o’clock) . Using the bright boost in more extreme settings will add significantly

more top end hiss. We recommend only using it during whilst in the first ½ of the voicing controls sweep.

Internal slide switch - The Empress has two different input stages – the slide switch lets you choose between them. The unit

is preset by us to the Medusa input stage setting. The other position provides a

little more boost and slightly different tonal response. Feel free to try both.

Switching - The Empress uses True Bypass switching. When she’s not turned on she’s just like a piece

of guitar cable (A lady’s allowed to have some quirks!).

Power - The Empress can be powered from either a nine volt battery or an external nine volt adapter (Boss PSA styled is

ideal - though anything with a 2.1mm barrel plug with a negative center pin is fine.).
