Studio D Chorus
-
Beautiful subtle modulation and movement for every track.
Introduced in 1979, the Roland Dimension D* chorus is famous for injecting spatialization, and sweet, subtle modulation. Used as a “secret sauce” by everyone from Brian Eno to Stevie Ray Vaughan, this legendary rack piece is an ideal example of functional simplicity.
The Studio D Chorus plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is an exacting emulation of this sought-after rack unit, deftly capturing its musical bucket-brigade circuit, the key to its complex range of sounds and textures.Now You Can:
Add subtle spatial effects and movement to instruments and buses
Easily open up background vocals, strings, and more
Use the “all buttons” mode for an extra shade of space and depth
Enhance tracks and add pop and interest without obviously effecting signals
Take A Listen
Enter the Bucket Brigade
Whereas most analog bucket-brigade chorus circuits work with 512 or even fewer delay stages, the Studio D Chorus plug-in captures the original hardware’s whopping 1024 stages per channel. This design offers complex modulation that fattens the stereo image in very “non-chorus” fashion.
Four Buttons and the Truth
With four push-buttons as its only controls, the Studio D Chorus plug-in perfectly captures the iconic hardware’s understated elegance. Each button gives you four different levels of effect intensity. Engage all four buttons at once, and you get one more tantalizing modulation choice. Like with the hardware, the buttons can used be in any combination for a large sonic palette.
Strength in Subtlety
Like the iconic hardware, the Studio D Chorus plug-in does not create a dramatically new sound — it enhances it. You can make simple guitar/vocal arrangements wider, deeper, and more interesting, or quickly gel groups of strings and vocals — without compression, EQ, or reverb. For floating guitar textures and synth pads, the Studio D Chorus plug-in simply can’t be beat. Ultimately, the Studio D Chorus plug-in’s utterly unique character on nearly any source make it an essential tool for every engineer’s toolkit.

“The Studio D Chorus plug-in excels at adding analog-style chorus effects to my mixes, ranging from subtle widening to full-blown psychedelic, super-wide washy chorusing.”
– Richard Chycki (Rush, Aerosmith, Dream Theater)“The UAD Studio D Chorus plug-in is a wonderful tool. It can add additional layers to the stereo image of synths or background vocals. It makes your music feel multidimensional.”
– Ivan Barias (Musiq Soulchild, Jill Scott, Estelle)“My presets for the Studio D plug-in are so good, I actually use them myself.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)“I used the original hardware on so many of the Culture Club tracks in the ’80s, it became part of their signature sound. ”
– Steve Levine (Culture Club, Beach Boys, Honeyz)“The UAD Studio D Chorus made my outboard unit obsolete, but it still looks great in my rack.”
– Ken Lewis (Kanye West, Drake, Bruno Mars)Customer Reviews

Incredible on vocals
If you're ever looking to make your tracks sound wider, look no further than this plugin. Place it on background vocals, and all of a sudden, they support your lead vocals so perfectly. Got keys that need a little more separation from the rest of the mix? Throw this on and your mix will feel bigger and better. I use this on every mix.
