Question Dinosaur Chorus Pedal ???

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey all you TB'ers...

Has anyone ever heard of the "Dinosaur Chorus Pedal"?

If so, are they any good? Furthermore, how do they hold up with bass?

Thanks - Gus

I found this.

http://www.dinosauramps.com/l-dch1.htm

It looks like a super cheapo Boss clone that didn't even bother to include all the knobs. I would say stay far away, but for the price, it might be worth it just to confirm such suspicions.

That website says the freq response is 70HZ to 5kHZ. That's probably no good for bass.

Question Thanks!

Thanks guys, I am on the hunt for a good, diverse chorus pedal - saw the Dinosaur pedal and it was more a case of morbid curiosity. But... I would be interested in feedback and opinion... I love the Analog Man Chorus, but it is just a bit too rich for my blood these days (maybe someday, but not for now). So I have this short list of chorus pedals (no particular order) I am looking at - opinions on the clear winner?

Visual Sound V2 Series V2LC Liquid Chorus
Rocktron Tsunami Chorus
Guyatone Micro Chorus
Marshall Regenerator Chorus

For a more complete picture:
The other pedals I am running...
Electronix MX Submarine, Electronix MessDrive Hybrid +, Foxrox Octron...
Basses - 'Wick 'Vette + Thumb
Amp - GK MB2-500 into my Dr. Bass 1580 3-way cab

Thanks - Again

I like the Boss CEB-3 bass chorus- it's pretty subtle, & lets a good clean bass fundamental come through, avoiding boomy mud-tone. I have an 80s vintage Pearl Chorus that is quite different from most choruses I've used; it gets very pitch-shifty/vibrato-esque at higher settings. I'd offer to sell it to you but it's really not your average chorus so I don't know what you'd think of it.

I have the H2O, and I like it a lot. I will warn you, though, it can suck some of your volume out in certain settings. If you get it dialed in right, though, it sounds fantastic. I was about ready to ditch mine, but at my last practice I fiddled with it for a while, and I got KILLER sounds out of the chorus and delay sides.

I also use and love my boss CEB-3. Admittedly though i have little experience with any other chorus pedals and i picked up mine at a local music shop for $40 on a whim. I liked it a lot and it has been on my board ever since.

You won't find a better chorus for that money than the Modtone Aqua Chorus. Rocktron Deep Blue also very good though it's a much bigger box.

also try to look at the Boss ce-5 and the BBE mind bender if you want an analog type.

Get the Boss CE-5 or Hardwire CR-7. That is all.


(soundclips of both in my Chronicle of Effects thread)

I had a Tsunami, and wasn't impressed. It was ok, but I just couldn't find a sound that I was looking for. Nicely made, the first one I had did nothing. lights came on but no change in sound, called Rocktron up and the sent me a new one right away.

Since they let me keep the old one, I am toying with using it as BYOC.
