EBS has another winner with the UniChorus. It is similar in appearance and simplicity with it's brother, the EBS Octabass. 2 pots control Depth and Rate, and a switch between the pots lets you pick between, chorus, flange, and pitch shift. It has a mono and stereo output. My personal favorite is the chorus effect, but the others are useful as well. One difference sound wise from other chorus effects I've used (Ibanez, Boss, Zoom) is that I don't get a drop in lower register when the effect is one (on other pedals I've need to boost the bass a bit). This makes is easier to switch on/off with having to reset EQ. Battery consumption seems low, and it can also use EBS phantom power. It is analog (less "processed" sound in my opinion), very quiet and does the job quite nicely for bass. Is is on the expensive side, but well worth the price if you ask me. This and the EBS Octabass are the only effects I'm using now, and I'm very happy with both.
