Chorus — is an effect that makes a single sound feel like many are playing at once — as if multiple instruments or voices are performing together with slight variations in timing and pitch.

Imagine you’re singing solo, and suddenly it sounds like a few more versions of you join in — singing almost the same thing, just a bit differently. It’s like your own personal mini-choir, making everything sound fuller and wider.

Fun fact:

The first popular chorus effect appeared in the Roland CE-1 guitar pedal back in 1976 — and it was actually based on a modified amplifier originally made for an electric organ!
