Critic Reviews

Analog Man Mini Chorus — Anatomy of Guitar Tone

anatomyofguitartone.com

The Analog Man Mini Chorus earns high marks for its robust build quality and vintage-inspired sound that captures the CE-1 magic without the hassle of vintage gear. While past chorus pedals like the Electro-Harmonix Small Clone had durability issues, the Mini Chorus shines with improved components and versatility. It offers a wide range of tones, from subtle to immersive, and excels in both guitar and synth applications. Some might find it a tad pricey compared to generic alternatives, but its superior tone and reliability make it a worthwhile investment for serious musicians.

Pedal Review: Analog Man Mini Chorus | Delicious Audio

delicious-audio.com

The Analog Man Mini Chorus is a boutique pedal exuding vintage warmth and shimmer, perfect for those prioritizing tone over versatility. Its handmade build and customization options, like the depth toggle and wet/dry mix, offer tailored experiences but come at a premium. The depth toggle enhances both subtle and intense chorus effects effectively, while the absence of dual-mode functionality in the base model is a missed opportunity. Despite the higher price, it stands out for its unique sound and dynamic range, appealing to players seeking a distinct, classic chorus tone.

"It’s not that large a palette that I tend to draw upon. There are certain sounds that I love. I use a GigRig G2 at the front end normally when I’m writing and recording, and I’ve got a selection of stompboxes at the front end, like a Prince of Tone or King of Tone, Jester Overdrive, Analog Man Mini-Chorus, Keeley tremolo, and an Electro-Harmonix POG and Pitch Fork."
