About this listing
This little digital chorus ensemble box from Boss Micro Rack series is a really good sounding despite the minimal control possibilities: Pre Delay time, Modulation rate and depth, effect EQ and Level. What is noticeable is the stereo output! This unit is in 100% working condition, but there are couple of things regarding cosmetical condition. On top there is a small area of melt and someone has drilled two small holes on case (see pics). Like mentioned, these are purely cosmetical and doesn't affect the usage in any way. This sale only includes the unit, no PSU, but this works with common 9V DC center negative. What internet says:The RCE-10 Digital Chorus Ensemble is a half-width rack unit from the 1980s Boss Micro Rack range. It uses 12-Bit digital circuitry so has that proper 80s sound. It can be setup to create effects from a mild chorusing to deep & swirly flanging, and everything in between. It has one input and two outputs. Unlike most effects pedals, where the stereo effect is created by phase inverting one output, the RCE-10 has two outputs with a true “stereo” signal generated by separate outputs from the delay line. When using the RCE-10 for recording or mixing I’d recommend feeding it from an effects send and returning it to two channels, to create a stereo mix with the original signal, or record to separate tracks. When you look harder at the RCE-10 it becomes clear that a lot of thought went into the design of the Micro Rack series. The power supply has a loop-through connector so units can be daisy-chained. There’s a footswitch socket for effect bypass. Inputs & outputs are on phonos as well as mono jacks and there’s a rear-panel switch to shift the nominal operating level between -10 and -20 dBm. Front panel controls are simple: Predelay sets the initial delay, Rate and Depth control Modulation and there’s a simple lo / hi EQ control and an Effect Level control sets the balance of direct & effect. There’s an effect bypass switch and a power switch. Keys to the depth of the chorus effect are pre-delay and the modulation section. By adjusting these it’s possible to create very subtle effects with movement but very little pitch modulation, or you can wind up the depth to get a traditional chorus with lots of detuning. Unlike simple stomp boxes, there’s lots of opportunity to shape the effect through experimentation.
