The fourth product on our list is the MXR M234
The MXR M234 features bucket-brigade circuitry to create lush and rich textures.

80s tone that musicians love so much.
This chorus pedal features a five control layout with low and high EQ controls to adjust
how bright or dark your tone is.
Level balances the effect and the signal, and Rate controls how fast the effect kicks
in.

The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th switches increase the depth and modulation in higher intensities.
By tweaking the modulation or feedback levels you can also create a sparkling effect.
It features a true bypass to keep your signal clean.
In use this chorus pedal doesn't detract from the natural tone of your instrument.

The second product on our list is the Walrus Audio Julia V2.
Walrus Audio's Julia V2 is a pedal that doubles as chorus and vibrato.
It has full analog circuitry that lets you customize the depth and rate controls.
It also features a mini toggle to switch between sine and triangle waveforms.
You can go from dry effects to chorus and vibrato with the help of the D-C-V knob.
Finally, the lag knob controls the center delay effect.
This gives more unusual textures and interesting sounds.
The build quality is excellent.
It has a solid metal body with a stylish design.
It features soft switch bypassing, which means that engaging the pedal is pop free.
If you use the triangle waveform, you get a dynamic tone with a ragged quality that
sounds great as you increase the depth.
Using the lag knob with either waveform gives you a tight and high frequency or an all-out
throbbing texture for a more intense effect.
The Julia V2 has two LED indicators that help you keep track of your pedal.
The second LED gives a constant flashing to show you the current rate of the chorus or
vibrato.
The Walrus Audio Julia V2 is perfect if you're looking for an organic chorus effect pedal
with great sound.
The first product on our list is the Boss CE-2W.
The Boss CE 2W is the modernized version of the beloved CE1 pedal of the 70s.

You can power it using the 9-volt DC socket on the back of the pedal or using the Boss
battery compartment.
There's also an extra output port that lets you connect your signal to two amps.
This gives you a spatial effect that swirls around other instruments you're playing with.
There's a rate control to modulate how long it takes to transition from the beginning
of the effect to the end.
The Depth knob controls how much modulation is applied to your signal.
You can go from a tight and subtle effect to a thicker more in-your-face sound.
It features the Waza mode control, which is a three-way switch that lets you choose between
three classic Boss chorus effects.
The standard setting has a crisp and responsive effect, the middle one is a chorus sound with
a deeper modulation, and the last one has an amazing vibrato quality.
If you're looking for a Boss quality build with great effects that you can experiment
with, the Boss CE 2W is the perfect chorus pedal.
