I’ve been running a vibrato pedal(tc tailspin) at the end of my chain for a while. The main reason is to give me a wobbly sound without turning into a chorus when I run reverb or delay.
Last week I was experimenting with running two amps setup and found out that when I use the tailspin with bottomed out controls on one amp and nothing on the other I get a massive sound.
I was floored by how good it sounded. Especially considering the nature of the second amp.
I’m using a fender bassbreaker 112 combo and an extremely cheap and old Vantage transistor combo.
You should give this a try if you have a cheap practice amp and a vibrato pedal lying around. It’s a ton of fun!
Congratulations on discovering stereo wet/dry chorus :)
It can get even more fin if you can get two different choruses going for true stereo, or (optimally) a wet/dry/wet rig for ultimate in lushness.
I remember the first time I ran my Pigtronix quantum time modulator in stereo with my amps on opposite sides of the room and just going “aaaaaaaaaaaaah i get it now”.
The thing is: It doesn’t sound very chorussy at all. It just sound really beefy. If I kick the tailspin on its like I’m kicking on a boost. Is that how wet/dry usually works?
Wet effects are typically modulation, time, and reverb. They output of these pedals is typically a blend of both the original input signal (dry) and the result of the effect (wet). You can split your signal chain (with a A/B[/Y] pedal) between your drive pedals and modulation pedals, and send on output straight to an amp (dry) and the other through the wet effects to a second amp (or two if you have stereo modulation/delay/verb). You might have the dry amp adding it’s own gain.
Some stereo modulation doesn’t actually do left/right panning, but instead does wet/dry “stereo.” So you could use a chain of pedals that work like that instead of an A/B pedal to split your signal for wet/dry.
