Donner Embark CHO-04 BBD Analog Chorus Pedal
The Donner Embark CHO-04 is a compact analog chorus built around a classic BBD (bucket brigade device) chip, giving your guitar the warm, lush modulation of vintage chorus pedals. Simple Rate and Depth controls take you from a subtle shimmer that thickens clean parts to a rich, swirling wash for leads and ambient textures, and it works with clean and driven tones alike. True bypass switching, a sturdy white aluminium alloy mini enclosure and an included DIY sticker pack make it a space-saving chorus for any pedalboard.
Warm BBD Chorus Tone
Chorus blends your dry signal with a slightly delayed copy whose delay time is gently modulated, so it drifts in and out of pitch like several instruments playing together. The CHO-04 creates that delay with a Bucket Brigade Device chip, the analog technology behind classic chorus pedals, for a warm, natural sound that adds depth, width and three-dimensional movement to your tone without overpowering it. Its analog circuit retains the transparency and layering of your original sound, making it a great fit for rock, blues, pop, indie, worship and ambient playing.
Simple Rate and Depth Controls
Two knobs are all you need. Rate sets how fast the chorus modulation moves, from a slow, gentle drift to a quicker, more obvious warble, while Depth sets how strong the effect is, from a subtle shimmer to deep, lush modulation. Dial in a light setting to fatten up clean arpeggios and chords, or turn both up for a richer, more pronounced swirl on leads and atmospheric parts. An LED shows at a glance when the effect is on.
The Donner Embark Series
Embark is Donner's range of compact, affordable guitar effects pedals, designed for players taking their first steps onto a pedalboard as well as experienced players adding new sounds to an existing rig. Every Embark pedal shares a sturdy aluminium alloy shell in a clean white finish, true bypass switching, side-mounted 1/4" jacks and standard 9V DC power, so they sit neatly side by side. Because the pedals look alike, each one comes with a pack of DIY stickers so you can customise its shell, or decorate it your own way, and tell your pedals apart at a glance.
