The WA-C1 has all the vintage tones, functionality, and vibe of the famous original chorus/vibrato pedal with added controls to separate rate and depth and brighten the tone. Like the remarkable original, the WA-C1 features a dedicated vibrato section and a 100% always-on analog preamp that adds tons of analog tone and character. The carefully designed circuit helps bring the vintage depth of modulation when turned all the way up, and also allows the WA-C1 to have variable depth to dial back for subtle tones. True to the original pedal, the WA-C1 offers rich depth and oscillation rate in waves, favored by legendary musicians such as The Police, Queen, Stone Temple Pilots, Rush, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and many more.

The WA-C1 offers rich mid-depth and detail associated with proper Bucket Brigade analog chorus pedals. In vintage units, "intensity" increased the speed of the LFO with the triangle wave shape, affecting the delay time of the BBD chip and creating a richer tone and faster rate. With the WA-C1, you can overcome the limitations of vintage pedals by dialing in more subtle depth and the same variable values for a larger chorus palette. When you activate the hi-z, the chorus instantly transforms from a '70s color to an '80s color, with added upper mids and treble. Activating the "high" input sensitivity setting can be used to add headroom and clarity to the pedal's overall tone. The WA-C1 adds a flashing LED for face effect monitoring that shows which setting is activated along with the modulation rate. A true recreation, the WA-C1 is 100% analog, using high-quality components such as the MN3007 Xvive BBD chip.
