Description

In 2014 we brought you the Emperor V1, a 100% Analog Chorus/Vibrato with Tap Tempo. Now in 2018 we are proud to bring you the Emperor V2! There are two ways to look at the JHS Pedals Emperor Analog Chorus/Vibrato pedal. The Emperor V2 is a vintage-correct effect that absolutely nails the hard-to-find sound of the Arion SCH-1...but its also a do-it-all modulation solution whether you want a subtle sheen, convincing rotary simulation, or seasick vibrato. It utilizes a Bucket Brigade 3207 chipset to deliver the warmth of ‘80s-style analog chorus pedals and we've added enough onboard and outboard control to put you in command of every aspect of the Emperor’s voice. Whether spreading its warm tones or icy sheen to a pristine-sounding stereo rig... or utilizing an external expression pedal to cop realistic rotary speaker sounds on a blues gig, the Emperor can do it all.

  • Very nice
Pattern Name: Pedal
Nice sounding chorus and vibrato pedal. The expression input is a plus, and having a volume control is ideal.

  • Great Versatility!
Pattern Name: Pedal
Really like this jhs pedal! I think it has a wide array of chorus tones that make it a really nice addition to my pedal board. Would definitely recommend.

  • Elegant chorus
Pattern Name: Pedal
Its a nice sounding chorus but I took one star off because unless I run it in stereo it is too subtle even at max depth.

  • This does, like all JHS pedals I own, exactly what it says! In spades!
Pattern Name: Pedal
I like everything about this pedal. The chorus side can go from subtle to thick, lush over the top sounds. From 70s to the present. The vibrato is equally versatile and most excellent. The three-way wave selector switch and the sensitivity of the controls are awesome for dialing in your perfect sound or experimenting for days. A worthy addition to any pedal board, professional or hobbyist. Thanks JHS! ... show more

  • Pristine
Pattern Name: Pedal
Emperor is fantastic. Simple operations and love the tap tempo option. The variety of wave types get you to some interesting territory for chorus. Quality you would expect from JHS.

  • Do you like LFO ticking?
Pattern Name: Pedal
You can hear the LFO ticking in the background. This is with a high-quality isolated power supply. The chorus sound is okay but doesn't sound at all like the Arion chorus this is supposedly based on. I was excited about the concept of this pedal but it was a huge disappointment.

  • Classic chorus sounds with tap tempo
Pattern Name: Pedal
I'm a fan of chorus effects in general, and this one is great. It has a classic chorus sound, a classic vibrato sound, plus some user-friendly features added. Tap tempo is handy for changing it up during a performance. I haven't needed the external control feature yet. I appreciate the added tone control, even if it's usually at roughly 50%. The biggest added feature is the volume control. No more struggling to work with a volume drop when you engage the effect! Oh, and I love the color and penguin. ... show more
