TAKE A LISTEN
Get the Perfect Chorus for Any Source
Use the Brigade Chorus to subtly enhance or transform anything you run through it. Get wider vocals or add a gentle shimmer to drum overheads. On electric guitar and bass, the Brigade Chorus gives you the fat, unmistakable guitar sound of late ’70s Rush and the electric bass textures of the Cure and New Order. Or you can put Brigade on a Fender Rhodes patch à la Herbie Hancock.
Add Maximum Width and Depth
Whereas some chorus units sound unnatural and “tacked on,” the Brigade Chorus gets inside your sources with high‑caloric chorus thick enough to spoon out of your speakers. On stereo tracks and buses, Brigade’s classic mode can be used exactly as the original — left side dry, right side affected. But with the “plug‑in only” dual mode, Brigade acts as if two pedals are patched in — giving you an immersive left/right spread that must be heard to be believed.
“The Brigade Chorus Pedal plug-in is instant vibe in the box. A tweak in any direction will ignite your creative flow with unique tones.”
– Ivan Barias (Musiq Soulchild, Jill Scott, Estelle)“The UAD Brigade Chorus plug-in is the go-to for any guitarist wanting to create that iconic ’80s guitar sound. Or you can add it to more distorted guitar sounds to easily reproduce many of the ‘90s grunge tones.”
– Steve Levine (Culture Club, Beach Boys, Honeyz)“The Brigade Chorus Pedal plug-in is perfect for giving guitars that classic '80s vibrato. It can be a great stereo widener for synths, guitars, and even background vocals.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)“The original hardware is arguably the most luscious of all chorus pedals. Its warmth and liquid modulation are captured perfectly in the Brigade Chorus Pedal plug-in, including the way-cool overdriving of the pedal's front end.”
– Richard Chycki (Rush, Aerosmith, Dream Theater)“Whenever I need a great chorus plug-in, I call on the UAD Brigade Chorus. It can be a subtle or not very subtle modulation that gives me a wide range of great tones and moods.”

Deep and luscious
Just as deep and luscious as the original Boss hardware chorus I used in the 80s on Fender Rhodes, as well as a multitude of new interesting sounds, and obviously way easier to save settings than back in the day. I use it on electric guitars, keys and BVs and on anything that needs that wobbly warmth. You'll love it.
