Value For Money : Excellent
Analog chorus effect made in the USA, upscale.

Input jack, stereo and mono outputs (which activates a switch inside)
9volts power via battery / adapter.
4 knobs: mix effect / delay time / depht / speed.
Mini knob adjust volume, switch chorus / flange, switch narrow / wide.
LED that reacts to the speed of the effect.
Switch on / off true bypass.

UTILIZATION

The effect is more than full, too, perhaps, is that sometimes simplicity is best!
Position "narrow" the chorus responds much more to his control delay time which detune the sound, same mode flange.
Position "wide" effect is less reactive, but it is possible to achieve the same effect in "narrow"!
Access to the battery is not very practical, it must still be careful not to damage anything inside by installing it!
Note that when changing from the flange chorus mode switch causes a poc! (To be careful to hp)

SOUND QUALITY

So here we are!
It is clear that the Choralflange is primarily a chorus effect saying quite complete, and not a double chorus / flanger as I thought before you receive it!
That's why I'm posting this review, among other things, to put an end to future buyers aware.
Amateur flanger powerful go your way, you will have to invest in another pedal.

This is a good 100% analog chorus, I also own a Maxon CS9 Pro (also excellent), then I would say that the Fulltone p't'être is a bit below because less definition, but in contrast very clean, versatile, no breath, nice progression orders, the delay time in narrow mode is very efficient and very reactive, it goes further than a Maxon CS9, causing an effect voyellisant.
Also very nice to give an effect like "leslie", or very psychedelic stuff.

In "flange" is the feeling of a chorus flange is put forward, it will ever happen to these so representative whistling sounds, sirens or jet off typical flanger effect remains chorus is a bit like aquatic sensation, but really nice, very organic, my Maxon FL9 does not allow me to find this kind of sound.

There are many settings you can really do a lot of things, it's a very good pedal.

OVERALL OPINION

Well it will probably have other things to say about Choralflange.
Me I still advise to try before you buy (I know this is difficult since that rarely are the providers of Fulltone effects), some prefer effects easier and more intuitive, but it's good very good stuff, there's something for his money!

Modif from 15/11/08:
I sold my Choralflange!
And yes, on reflection I prefer the Maxon CS9 Pro, pure and organic! The choralflange is a very good pedal nothing to say, the effect is responding with more power and the look is cool and everything but its default (I think) is that it gives too low and does not clarify fully the spectrum sound, causing a small flange mode hum! And for me it is the coup de grace! The only way to eliminate it is to lower the input gain by the volume knob of the guitar for example.
Damage but this fault is internal and comes from the power of the effect, you must know that each manufacturer has its signature sound, Fulltone has one and for Choralflange I spent my way! (See my topic on the forums)
