What Chorus Pedal Should I Get??

[miroslav]

Almost certainly what they are talking about. And while that is digital in the electronic design sense of the word, it is in no way "digital" in the sense that the signal is at all digitized. There are no ADC's or DAC's, no micro processors, or anything like that.

I just looked it up - the 570 is a "digital" clock chip.

It is an analog pedal. Count on it.

Oh, and the 100dB s/n ratio is to do with 1) a REALLY well designed pedal, 2) a extremely robust power supply that no effect using a wall wart could ever match. It is, in point of fact, one of the things that show it is analog, and really good analog at that. With Digital, 16 bit's best possible S/N ratio is 96dB, and at 20 or 24 bit it would be higher than 100 dB.

So finally after a few attempts...I got an answer direct from TC Electronic.
They say the SCF is and always has been analog.

I picked up an SCF a week ago...and absolutely HATED it after the first 2 minutes of plugging it in.
It does something to the HF that they call "shimmer"...but to me was just an annoying glassy/brittle/metallic quality...that totally craps out the tone of the guitar/amp IMO.
I guess some people say it's the "studio quality" of the pedal that makes it sound like that...but I just didn't care for it at all.
It sounds SO digital to me...that it might as well be a digital pedal.
That's why I contacted TC Electronics...I just couldn't believe it was all-analog.
I put it back in the box after about 10 minutes, and will be getting rid of it on my next eBay sell-off.

This week I picked up an Analog Man standard chorus.
Now THIS is a sweet sounding chorus! I fell in love instantly.
This is what an analog pedal should sound like.
Works right along with your guitar/amp tone and just adds a nice buttery chorus FX to the tone.
