How can I decompose what a chorus effect does in simple terms? What I want to do is have something similar to a chorus effect without the sweeping. Are there any chorus VSTs that lock the phasing?
More than you wanted to know probably but anyway it's all about getting the sweeping combs to sit still - without the sweeping- or allow manual adjustment - I think that's what you're interested in.
There's also a cool tool called "VST plugin analyzer" when you can see the phase of a VST plugin - if you be interested in that kind of thing. Kind of like an RTA only for phase - so I guess it's a RTPA. Written by the same cool guy that gave us the free VST EQ posihfopit: http://www.savioursofsoul.de/Christian/Programs.htm
