Retro-Sonic CE-1 clone: http://gtrgear.com/Retro-Sonic/Chorus.htm
Retro-Sonic clone of CE-1 would be much easier to make - no transformer (charge pump), fits in 1590BB, and it's guitar-friendly (original CE-1 was designed with keyboard players in mind).borislavgajic wrote:it looks like no problem to make!

There's a very slight difference, I agree. But try listening while not looking in the monitor - I couldn't tell which pedal plays in that particular moment. Eyes are so much easier to convince than ears
RetroSonic mods to CE-1 are relatively small, not linked to tone & most probably reversible - ask Mark H, he helped with the design.
Anyway, the first layout posted is verified & working:

Just to explain why I would prefer RetroSonic's version - I've got one with me right now (revision D, fully operational but needed a cap job), and it's pretty much unusable for guitar:
- Bloody thing just won't stop distorting, no matter what you do. God forbid that you use "High" mode.
- The owner added a mains out cable, so after removing it I had the place to install R11 mod without any further drilling (replacing R11 with 470K pot). Doesn't really help with distortion, it just makes the pedal quiet - CE-1 just can't cope with attack portion of the guitar note.
- Does it get brighter with a buffered pedal in front? Not really, you have to install 500K pot on the input for that.
- Does it do something that other choruses don't? A matter of taste, I suppose. I share Mark's opinion on that one - you plug it in and go "Oh, it's a chorus". Also, having only the "Intensity" control for the chorus is IMHO not enough.
Couple more pics, just in case:

Notes: all electrolytics replaced (0.47uF's with 'styrenes and WIMA). Everything else on the PCB's stock. Do not overlook the 220K resistor mounted on the Vibrato Rate pot. Transformer secondary switch replaced with the closest one I could find on such a short notice (the unit goes back to the owner over the weekend). Thick black wire that goes on the PCB is part of the R11 mod. Level Control pot replaced with 500K pot. Peak Level diode removed for inspection, then re-glued back in.

Way back when (20 years ago ish) I bought mine from the classifieds in Guitarist mag for 40 quid I think. The guy who sold me the pedal included a full set of schematics... Although I haven't seen them for a while it's not something I would ever have thrown away so I'll have a look and post them if it would be of interest...
He said in his cover letter that "If you're any way technical and own an osiliscope, there's a pot that can be adjusted to give a lusher sound...."
Anybody seen or heard of this before?
........I've always wondered......
Re: distortion mentioned in an earlier post, my level is no more than a quarter turn up. I set mine so the level led lights gently.... Clean sounds are still clean just warm, obviously in an analogue manner, and yes forget the high position!
Cheers,
J.

Does anybody know the delay time for the CE-1? I was kind of surprised by some the Maxon/Ibanez stuff, and though one of you might know about my favorite chorus, the CE-1.
