Description
Chorus + by Synthescience is a vintage-inspired chorus effect modeled after the dense, harmonically rich modulation circuits found in classic 80s polysynths. It delivers instant retro width and warmth with minimal fuss, making it a go-to choice for producers chasing that unmistakable analog chorus character.
The plugin offers two distinct voicing modes described as mild and strong, each providing a different intensity of modulation. When pushed harder with the controls, the effect transitions from lush ensemble thickening into more aggressive, heavily modulated territory that works well for creative sound design.
All parameters are fully automatable, allowing you to program dynamic chorus sweeps and transitions within your DAW. Chorus + also includes 64 preset slots with several factory presets already loaded, giving you ready-made starting points for a variety of tonal textures.
The interface is deliberately simple, keeping the focus on quick dialing-in of the right sound rather than menu diving. This streamlined approach means you can drop it on synth pads, guitar tracks, or vocal buses and get usable results in seconds.
Chorus + is designed as a stereo insert effect and works best when placed directly on individual tracks or buses where you want to add spatial depth and analog-style movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the two chorus modes in Chorus +?
The two modes are described as mild and strong. Mild delivers subtle ensemble-style widening suitable for adding gentle movement, while strong produces a thicker, more pronounced modulation. Pushing the controls further in strong mode creates heavily modulated, almost abusive chorus textures useful for creative sound design.
Can I use Chorus + for live automation in my DAW?
Yes, all parameters in Chorus + are fully automatable. You can draw automation curves in your DAW to create dynamic chorus sweeps, transitions between mild and strong modes, or subtle parameter changes over time.
What types of audio sources work best with Chorus +?
Chorus + excels on synthesizer pads, electric piano, guitar tracks, and vocal buses where you want vintage-style width and movement. It is designed as a stereo insert effect, so it works best placed directly on individual channels or group buses rather than as a send effect.
