Strymon Ola dBucket Chorus & Vibrato

General

In the Ola, Strymon have really done everything possible to cram an as-organic-as-can-be chorus into a purely digital stompbox. This pedal is driven by an overwhelmingly powerful SHARC chip that uses its incredible processing smarts to perform the calculations required to run the dBucket algorithm. This complex chunk of programming convincingly mimics the original Bucket Brigade analogue circuits with extreme accuracy.

The Sound of the Ola dBucket Chorus & Vibrato

A trio of original, unadulterated modulation effects is provided by the Type switch. For a simple and classic sound, select Chorus and tweak the foundation using the Speed, Depth and Mix pots. If you're looking for something with more flow where the LFO modulations are no longer audible, then go for Multi. Or, for something with more fluctuation and familiarity, Vibrato is offered. The Tone pot adjusts the flavour and colour of modulation and, once you've hit the sweet spot, the result can be saved to the Favorite footswitch.

A Dynamic Chorus Pedal

The single Mode switch fitted to the face of the Strymon Ola Chorus triples the potential of this stompbox. Envelope mode makes the Chorus or Vibrato highly reactive to playing dynamics and, depending on the Type setting, has a softer or more intense reaction to your playing. In Ramp mode, a gorgeous swell effect can be created in real-time by holding down the Bypass footswitch, and a Ramp/Envelope pot is included to adjust the intensity of the selected Mode.
