...And the 2 hour review (I'm giddy).
Every one of you has heard the predecessor to this unit - but might not realize where... The Hysteria clip I posted in another thread is likely one of them.
I'm going to take a gander and say this sounds like this is on the 1st couple of Robert Plant albums. Robbie Blunt said those were a CE-1 into a Princeton, but I hear that shimmer on the tone. The CE-1 is probably true, but it certainly sounds to me right now like the 'Tri Chorus' unit went into post processing.
Its unlike every chorus I've ever tried - I've had a number of them, including some that purported to be a 'Tri Chorus' sound. Axe-FX 'Quad Chorus' among them. Its also unlike the 6 voice chorus in the PCM-81 presets.
Its not transparent. My 1st impression is it pulls back the mids a little but makes the sound wider at the same time. That being said, I changed the compressor so it might be that. I'd probably say it has a 'leslie on LSD' kind of tone. Its got the warbling like a leslie, but it translates into more of a sparkle.
Its pretty quiet - also takes instrument level if you want.
I'm thinking right now - Dump the chorus pedals! Actually, I'm closer to dumping my trinity of Strymon pedals.
I have it on good word that the Eventide H9 has the power to do a close facsimile if Eventide will just port the algorithm from the Eclipse to the H9.
Wonder if I post this over on SDUGF, Stratman will have one in a few months?
Seems he did that when I got the Triaxis and 2:90
