01Overview

Chorus D Bundle brings two chorus modules into one plugin. The first is a recreation of the SD-D Chorus, a 1979 hardware unit that Slate Digital models for warm, subtle movement. The second, Custom D Chorus, adds expanded controls for users who want more room to shape the effect. The developer notes that the original chorus was used by Brian Eno, Talking Heads and Kate Bush, and the bundle is aimed at producers who want lush, spacious modulation with a vintage character and modern control.

Sound and Character of the SD-D and Custom D Chorus

The SD-D module is an authentic recreation of the 1979 original. Slate Digital describes its sound as warm and subtle, with movement that adds depth without pulling the pitch around too much. This makes it suited to sources that need width and texture without an obvious effect.

Custom D Chorus is the more flexible of the two. It exposes additional controls beyond the original design, so you can push the modulation further while keeping the same basic character.

Using the Chorus D Bundle for Stereo Width

One of the bundle's main functions is turning mono signals into stereo. Running a mono source through the chorus spreads it across the stereo field, which can help a single track sit wider in a mix.

Because the modulation is described as free of harsh pitch movement, the bundle is positioned for adding space and dimension rather than obvious detuning. Producers can use it on sources where depth matters more than an audible effect, keeping the vintage character while working with modern mix controls.
