Electro-Harmonix NC
Electro-Harmonix · pedal
The Electro-Harmonix Nano Clone is a compact analog chorus that adds dimension and shimmer to your tone in a tiny, affordable enclosure. It gently warps the input signal, bending the frequencies and mixing the result with the dry signal to create a singular doubling chorus effect, with a single Rate control to set the modulation speed. From subtle thickening to deeper, watery wobble, it delivers warm analog chorus simply and cheaply. It suits players who want classic, easy analog chorus shimmer for clean rhythm, ambient textures and 1980s style modulation without taking up pedalboard space or requiring deep tweaking, across rock, pop, indie and clean styles.
