Celsius preamp + Cepheid chorus?

I’ve paired it in a build with a CE-1 clone (Lectric-FX Karaoke Chorus) and I’ve also paired with a CE-2 clone (AionFX Azure) manually by putting them together on a pedalboard, and both sounded great.

Any hints on how to connect them?
In, out for the two parts?
Tried to look at your pictures in your build report, but some wires are obscured by the pcbs.

Do you want both circuits to always come on together with one stomp or do you want them available independently of each other though in the same enclosure?
Whichever you prefer, there are diagrams on the forum on how to box up two circuits together in either configuration (you could even add an order switcher and have the chorus run into the preamp).

IN-Jack > 3PDT (or other bypass method) > Circ1-in > Circ1-out > Circ2-in > Circ2-out > 3PDT > OUT-jack
or
IN-Jack > 3PDT-A (or other bypass method) > Circ1-in > Circ1-out > 3PDT-A > 3PDT-B > Circ2-in > Circ2-out > 3PDT-B > OUT-jack
If you want the order-switcher, you can find it in this thread.

Many thanks!
I am thinking pre into chorus. But independent.

I guess I could also use 4 jacks and jumper as needed to change order. But I guess I will be using pre as pre...Do you want both circuits to always come on together with one stomp or do you want them available independently of each other though in the same enclosure?

If you go with 4 jacks I'll recommend making the circuit1's OUT jack a switching jack wired to the circuit2's IN-jack.
That way you can run into just the circuit1's IN and go from the circuit2's OUT, the middle jacks left empty but the signal still travels from circuit1 to circuit2. I'm doped up on cold meds, but I think that should still allow you to use the separate bypass switches as normal.
Once you insert something into the middle jacks (effectively now an effects-loop between the pre and the chorus), the switched jack cuts the connection between the Circuit1-OUT and Circuit2-IN.
To complicate matters, if you so wish, you could stick the "loop" on its own stomper-bypass and thus be able to bring in fuzz, delay, octave — whatever you stick in the loop — between the pre and the chorus.
Here's a thread about switching jacks.

Thanks a lot!
Yes, that reminds me of how it was done for the duo-phase.
