The Chrysostom Chorus/Vibrato is a pedal from Westminster Effects that covers both chorus and vibrato in one box. When it was announced in June 2020, Delicious Audio's Paolo De Gregorio described it as "an easy to use chorus/vibrato that also happens to be incredibly versatile," one that can "get warm, warbly tones to classic chorus doubling." He also noted that it "sounds great on bass," so it is not limited to six strings.1

What it does and how it is controlled

The front panel is simple: two knobs control Depth and Speed, the standard pair for shaping how strong and how fast the modulation is. Two toggle switches give you two voices each of Vibrato and Chorus, so you can pick between four voicings without digging through menus.1

The circuit is hybrid digital/analog, and the pedal uses soft touch relay bypass.1 If you are weighing it against other modulated effects, it sits between a chorus and a vibrato pedal, with the toggles deciding which character you get.
