Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble - The Buffer Trick

Welcome to Perky's Analog Gear Demos. Please subscribe for more demos of vintage & rare effects pedals! So this is the so-called 'King Of Chorus' - the Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble. This model dates from 1981 and sounds glorious. But there's a problem...the CE-1 was originally designed for keyboards and has a 50k input pot at the front end. With the low impedance signal from a keyboard this works great, but give it a high impedance guitar signal and the 50k pot shelves off all your high end. So how do we stop it from doing this? The most common way is to replace the 50k pot with a much higher value pot (eg. 500k) But if you don't want to go hacking up your lovely vintage pedal, this trick works just as well: just buffer your guitar signal, to reduce the impedance! So place a buffer, an always-on pedal, or a non-true bypass pedal before the CE-1 in your signal chain, the impedance is lowered and all your lovely, sparkly high end returns. :-) Do you think this is the best sounding vintage chorus? Comment below! Guitar is a Fender Strat through a Cornell Romany Plus (recorded with a 57) and a Hughes & Kettner Puretone (recorded with an sE Electronics RNR1 Ribbon) [email protected]
