Welcome, fellow frequency chaser! Kudos to you for referring to the ocial
manual of this majestic Device rather than diving into its powers blindly. Or
equally likely, traveling down a YouTube pedal demo rabbit hole where you
eventually find yourself watching a tutorial on how to make gnocchi from
scratch at 3am. We can tell you’re a true tone aficionado, which is why we’re
going to be straight with you: you’re about to embark on a magical journey
with this mighty Aurelius™ pedal in front of you.
This is not simply your run of the mill chorus pedal. This compact, beautifully
cased wonder is a three-mode chorus with six programmable presets and
expression control. Choose from Vibrato Mode, Chorus Mode, and Rotary Mode
and manipulate their Width, Rate, and Balance to achieve your ideal sound.
Shift seamlessly from one mode to another to cop a blend that is all your own.
One simple tap of the Preset (“Save/Recall”) switch and you can summon up to
six settings of your choosing at will. Feeling pretty powerful now, aren’t you?
Inspired by the 1970s CE-1 Chorus Ensemble pedal, this digital unit has been
tirelessly tweaked and fine-tuned to give you an all-encompassing chorus and
vibrato experience like nothing else. We even took it way back to the 1940s
and the advent of the Leslie speaker to boldly capture the sound of its rotating
bae system for the Rotary mode. We studied the way that the horn and the
rotor moved on Leslie speakers and emulated the phasing and speeds of the
low frequency oscillator, but we exaggerated the hell out of them to make it
sonically suitable for guitar, bass or your instrument of choice.
And by popular demand, like many of our pedals, we’ve equipped this with an
expression control so you can use any TRS expression pedal to manipulate
the Width, Rate or Balance. Put it in Vibrato Mode and you’ll have a really subtle
chorus with a seasick vibrato and alternate quickly between the two seamlessly.
And that’s only one mode. The possibilities are endless. Think about it.
This world of chorus in a box will fit on any pedalboard and is so intuitive that
you most likely won’t have to refer to this manual ever again. So, if we don’t
see you back here, it’s been a pleasure and good luck with the gnocchi.
Each and every Aurelius is hand crafted in Akron, Ohio, USA and is inspected
by the spirit of speaker innovator Donald Leslie. 3
