01Overview

Chorus DIMENSION-D recreates a classic studio effect that producers have used to widen vocals, keys and guitars. Arturia says the plugin is modeled after the Roland Dimension D, known for a warm, spacious texture. The interface is deliberately simple: four buttons select rate and depth combinations, so you can get a usable chorus quickly. Advanced controls are added on top for users who want more shaping, including LFO shape, dynamic colour and stereo width.

Warm Stereo Chorus with Simple Operation

The core of Chorus DIMENSION-D is four-button operation. Modes 1 through 3 offer fixed variations of modulation rate and depth, and Mode 4 can be combined with them to increase the wet signal level. There are no menus to navigate and no deep parameter editing required.

The plugin emulates bucket-brigade device (BBD) circuitry, which Arturia describes as the source of the output's warm, smooth character. A built-in compressor and expander, along with filtering, add subtle saturation and dynamic response. The result moves from soft shimmer to more animated modulation.

Advanced Controls for Shaping Movement

Beyond the original unit's controls, Chorus DIMENSION-D adds several options. The oscillator shape can be set to triangle, sine, ramp, sample and hold, or sample and glide, which changes the character of the stereo movement. Dynamic Colour adjusts the compressor and expander behavior for finer changes in attack, decay and saturation.

Stereo Width widens or narrows the left and right spread, and can be pushed beyond 100 percent. Plugin modes cover mono, mono to stereo and full stereo operation, and a wet/dry mix control is included. Eight curated presets are provided as starting points for common modulation sounds.
