Strymon Eventide TriceraChorus

Strymon · pedal

The Eventide TriceraChorus is a stereo chorus pedal that pairs the lush bucket-brigade-style chorus sounds of the late 1970s and early 1980s with Eventide's signature MicroPitch detuning for deep, swirling, three-dimensional modulation. It offers rich, watery chorus across three voices, customizable detuning for added dimension, and a Swirl parameter that introduces psychedelic flanging, phasing, and Uni-Vibe-style movement and a chewy, phase-shifted throb. With stereo operation and deep control over chorus rate, depth, detune, and swirl, it ranges from classic 80s shimmer to wild, evolving modulation textures. It suits players wanting versatile, high-quality stereo chorus with vintage character and modern depth for clean rhythm, ambient layers, and lush, dimensional tones in rock, pop, and atmospheric styles.

What stands out

  • “The TriceraChorus excels by uniting warm, vintage bucket-brigade chorus with Eventide's MicroPitch detuning and a Swirl parameter that layers in psychedelic flanging, phasing, and Uni-Vibe throb, all in lush stereo”
