True Bypass Switching
The first thing you’ll notice when you step on the PAC-9 is a beefy,
full-bodied chorusing that punches you directly in the chest – gone are
the thin, hissy, sissified chorus tones of yesteryear, replaced instead
by a full-frequency effect that simply sounds massive.
The PAC-9’s circuit uses professional-grade IC’s typically reserved
for High-End Audio applications, providing audiophile performance in a
compact stompbox format.
When compared to a standard chorus, the PAC-9’s effect appears more
dramatic and has more presence in a mix – this is due to the retention
of low and low-mid frequencies that are typically chopped out by other
boxes.
The PAC-9’s LFO has an extended range that allows it to nail classic
rotary speaker sounds with ease. In addition to standard Speed and
Width controls, The PAC-9 also features two unique controls: The Pure
switch boosts the delayed signal by 4 dB to create a more dramatic,
tremolo-like chorus effect, while the Bright switch subtly scoops lows
on the delayed signal for a more traditional chorusing sound.
Standard and inverted (90 degrees out of phase) outputs allow for mono, stereo, or inverted mono signal routing options.
The PAC-9’s internal voltage-doubling circuitry provides maximum
headroom to eliminate input distortion. The higher operating voltage
also allows it to be used in an FX loop to place the chorus effect
post-gain.
"The Maxon PAC-9 provides a large range of great chorus sounds with
completely silent operation. I had never used choruses before this one,
as they often resulted in tones that sounded overly processed for my
personal taste. This one allows for lovely subtlety, and is rugged and
straight-forward to use." - Gretchen
A new spin on an old classic, the PAC-9
brings classic 80’s chorusing into the 21st century with modern features
and improved sound quality.
TECH TALK
NOTE ON POWERING THE PAC-9 - this
pedal’s voltage regulator IC requires a high inrush current of
approximately 2000 mA upon startup. When using with a Power Brick such
as the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2+, this pedal should be connected to a
high current power jack when possible.
If it is not possible to connect to a high current jack, you can
power the PAC-9 by leaving a battery in the pedal. Upon initial
start-up, unplug the external DC power input cable, engage the pedal,
and then plug the DC power input cable back in – the pedal will now
power up normally off the external power supply until you power down
your pedalboard.
