Probably chorus but phaser or flanger work too. I can never dial in a sound I'm happy with so I usually just settle from something.

Okay if you're a fan of 80s chorus, this is what I usually use to get that lush chorus sounds.

Chorus: rate: 25, depth: 50, mix: 50, locut: 400hz, level: 80, pred: on

For flanger, here's what I create to get that jet flanging effect.

Vintage flanger: depth:50, rate:10, reso:7, pred:5, level:100, locut:200hz

Not really a phaser kind of guy, but give these modulation effects a try and see if it works out for you.
