And the best chorus is......

There is only one knob. But the sound of that chorus is like the smoke of burning autumn leaves when shades of evening are yet coming..."good enough"?!? What kind of strange concept is that? Strive for the best!
j/k
I still stand by the EHX Stereo Electric Mistress. I am not a chorus guy either. It also has the bonus of flanger as well. Ultimately I use the detune functions on my Whammy for my chorus purposes.
I don't use chorus nearly enough to warrant a permanent spot on my board for it.

There are a ton of these. As in A TON. And the all seem to have different strengths/weaknesses.
I've been using an Analogman BiChorus and like it. Not cheap, though.

bridge of sighs - for bass? That bass is *clean* (while trower is anything *but* clean!)
It really depends on what kind of chorus you like. I usually go for a lighter effect, which my Fulltone Choral Flange does well. I also have a Malekko chorus on my little board. It's much thicker - more toward the flange side of the house.
I find it fills out the sound quite nicely to put some chorus on my bass on the "slow" songs. Try it, you may like it.
It also adds to the "vibe" IMO- sounds more "stormy"
I haven't played Bridge of Sighs in a band since... oh lord... the early '80s! Not a lot of call for that in clubs!
True- but nobody told our band leader that. ;-) Then again, not much call for any of the stuff we are doing. We are truly living the dream; playing challenging power trio music we like, with reckless abandon as to whether our audience likes it or not.

Same for me! Although the TC Corona Chorus gets pretty good reviews. I've never tried one.
I use that one and like it also. But my all time favorite is the TC Electronic SCF Stereo Chorus Flanger Pedal. Wish it didn't have a plug to power it.
Hard to beat the TC chorus pedals, Corona or my long-time fave, the SCF.
That said, if I really needed a chorus again and had the money to spend, I'd grab an IE Polytope. The demos of that pedal just sound sooooo good to me.
