Does this pedal exist?

I have the B3, not happy with the bypassed tone at all. I assume the 60 is the same.

I've noticed this too and it's a bit disappointing. It also gives me too hot of a signal no matter what I change on the pedal, and often gives a really annoying CLICK/POP kind of sound when plucking the string. Sucks because the features and sounds on it are great, I use it at home for practice all the time but it just does not get along with my rig.

This!!/\. Its a little bigger than a BOSS pedal, but it has both envelope and a few modulation sounds(phaser)!! I'm sure if you tweaked the phaser sound you could approximate a chorus tone...

Edit: Sorry, I meant the SA Manta!!

Yeah the SA Manta is a full-featured envelope filter with some dirt tones (to make the filter pop or get more synthy) and it also has some excellent phaser patches.

But phaser is not really the same as flanger or chorus, but it will swoosh around.

Yeah, I figured if you tweaked it enough you could get close!!?? My mentality on this is heavy chorus can sound like a flanger, and flangers can sound close to phasers....LOL!!:)

The 60B has none of those issues. Glad I went that route, as I aaaaalmost got the B3. In the end I figured I'd just get 2 60B's if I needed more.

Isn't the MythFX Infinium both a modulation and env filter pedal, selectable by switches? It's also very tiny!

(Apologize for 9-month Zombie Resurrection...perhaps I should call it Zombie Gestation? ...but I just discovered the MythFX Infinium today and was searching TB archives for more info, so stumbled upon this thread)

The Infinium is both a ring modulation and env filter. Ring modulation is a very different sound (and process) than the time-based modulation (e.g., chorus) that the OP was looking for.

otoh, the Infinium also has delay capability, and it's not completely inconceivable that, with some very judicious & patient tweaking of the delay parameters the OP could come up with a diffuse ambience that, while not actually being chorusing, might convey a similar sort of hazy glow that a chorus pedal often gets deployed for.

Oh I know ring modulation - I just thought the Infinium was a filter plus like phaser and chorus. I was probably conflating multiple mythfx pedals since they all do double or triple duty like that.

In addition to the Infinium, get the other MythFX pedal, the [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] – then you're covered:

INFINIUM
Filter
Ring Mod
Delay

TRITON
Tremolo
Tremolo+Reverb
Chorus
Flanger
Phaser and
Phaser+Reverb
