Do you like chorus? Do you like chorus that is a bit more subtle? Are you okay with planning your drill holes correctly for the enclosure?
Honestly, a really smooth build. Uses 1/8W resistors and a charge pump, and MN3007, etc. PcB is pretty good sized, so just be smart about knowing the distance from the top mount jacks to the board, as well as the 3pDT switch spacing.
Now me, being an overly ambitious idiot, decided to put a perfboard version for the transistor part of the Celsius preamp in front. I discovered that the preamp part of the Karaoke is pretty much the opamp part of the Celsius. Mine has a switch to turn it on and dial the boost (which I don’t think the volume knob works correctly, but whatever - I don’t want to take it apart). The boost really adds a nice goose to the front and fills up the sound. Also, I wired the LFO blinking LED as the bypass LED.
Sandy texture purple powder coat I think from LMS. Not the cleanest inside, but it works. Put another Hanna-Barbera character on it because they’re fun. Take your time and you too can build this - it’s more subtle chorus, but the vibrato gets weird.
