About this listing
Due to tariffs I can no longer offer free shipping to USA! The tariff costs will be addressed in the shipping component.Sorry!!Please Note! I receive many messages from customers wanting to purchase however it says "out of stock" When going to pay. As I am located in Australia, Reverb only allows PayPal to be the Merchant to manage the payment.A paypal Account is Not Required and Credit card payment is available. They are simply acting as the Merchant.If you select any other form of Payment (ie Reverb Payments) etc etc it will say the item is out of stock!I have contacted Reverb several times about this, but this message seems to be the only solution!The buyer accepts responsibility for all taxes/fees/charges on delivery. Now comes with internal switchable Buffer Mod & Built in Depth Mod!!!What is it?The PastFx Chorus Ensemble Mini (CEM) is based upon the Holy Grail of Chorus pedals, The BOSS® CE-1. First released in 1976 it became famous for lush Chorus and Leslie effect Vibrato.The CEM is currently the smallest recreation of the The BOSS® CE-1 available. It is approximately 1/4 of the size and weight of an original. At 40yrs of age, original units can develop reliability issues and require capacitor replacement and extensive servicing. Unmodified working originals are becoming harder to find and are expensive. The CEM requires no fuses and is not powered by mains voltage. With today’s advancements in technology, the CEM operates off the same bipolar voltages as The BOSS® CE-1, however it only requires standard 9vdc pedal power supply.Features- Extremely small enclosure footprint(11.2cm x 6cm // 4.4" x 2.36" 1590B enclosure used ) • Uses obsolete 512 stage 1970's bucket brigade chip • incorporates the “Noise Killer” circuitry • Same unique Preamp stage • Normal / effect footswitch • Vibrato / Chorus toggle switch • Triangle Wave LFO – Chorus • Sinewave LFO - Vibrato • Not True Bypass (Jfet switching as original ) • Red LED Peak Level Indicator visual feedback of input sensitivity • High / Low Input sensitivity changeover switch • Blue LFO rate LED, visual indication of LFO Rate • Stereo/ Mono Outputs. In a Stereo setup, wet signal is directed to the Stereo jack and Dry to the Mono output jack. • Vibrato controls are Depth & Rate • Chorus is controlled by Intensity knob (now depth can be adjusted using the Vibrato's Depth Knob!) • When effect is bypassed the LFO LED indicator remains on without flashing • Pedalboard friendly, uses minimal real estate and operates off industry standard (9VDC negative tip Uses Quality Neutrik Jacks and Lumberg DC socket Current draw approx : 110-130MA (Please read user manual for specific powering requirements before purchasing) The CEM also incorporates up to 2 extra popular modifications that many owners of the original unit would use.Depth ModBuffer ModThis mod is popular for those who were wanting more control over their chorus effect.The Vibrato Depth knob now controls the Depth of both the Chorus & Vibrato. The Stock depth setting of the Chorus can still be achieved by turning the Vibrato Depth knob fully clockwise.Many owners of the original noticed that when selecting the high on the input sensitivity switch that some of the high frequencies of their signal was lost. This was a desirable outcome for some. To remedy this, some users would place a buffer before the BOSS® CE-1 to restore the high frequencies. The CED comes with an inbuilt buffer circuit which can be added or removed as desired.Note: When clipping the signal heavily by having the Level control on high, it can give various responses based on what type of amp is being played through.On some amps it can almost sound like a fuzz, and on others a more traditional crunch sound! This is the same experience with the original.From Dave Simpson On 24/08/2020 10:54 pm, David simpson wrote: Hi there I've just tried the pedals out and I can't believe it. There Perfect. Absolutely perfect. They sound right. Respond right. Are right. Incredible. Your the first person who has nailed it for me. I've tried alot of ce1 clones and ce1 boost clones. Non of which worked and added anything. They were just clean boosts. So just made things harsher and louder. Yours are the first pedals where i can actually tell there doing something magical.
