Probably quite a few of you have a little Behringer CC300 pedal. It's their version of the Boss DC-2 Dimension C compact pedal. But there's a problem, the Behringer is very prone to distortion if you don't get the levels quite right. The problem is caused by two things as far as I can see....
I bought my Mutron III pedal for $30 Canadian (in 1997 or so). No complaints about its sound quality. Got my Boss DC-2 Dimension C a few years back for 50CHF, also no complaints. Still lots of deals to be had on the used market if you're clever, and patient.
It's a pretty different circuit to "regular" chorus, I'll use it for totally different things. It definitely comes into its own when used in stereo.
But sometimes you just want that 80s chorus sound on guitar and only a CE-2/CE-2W will do.
