Pope Audio Dirty-C 500-Series Chorus Module

Based on the Original Roland RE-501 Chorus Echo

Bring the legendary chorus effect of the Roland RE-501 into the modern studio with the Pope Audio "Dirty-C" 500-Series module. This compact unit captures all the character and vibe of the original, delivering it in a desktop-friendly format that's perfect for today's audio environments.

Designed for the Modern Studio:

  • Authentic RE-501 Sound: The Dirty-C isn't just inspired by the RE-501; it's a faithful recreation, using the same BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) MN-3007 chip to achieve that iconic, lush chorus sound.
  • Versatile Controls: Features include an effect Rate/Depth control and a Mix Blend knob, allowing you to dial in the perfect amount of chorus for any track. Additionally, there's an optional hi-Z instrument input for direct guitar or bass connection.
  • Multiple Modes: With three distinct modes - "Vibrato", "RE501", and "Ring Mod" - the Dirty-C offers a spectrum of chorus effects, from subtle modulations to intense, three-dimensional soundscapes.

Features:

  • BBD MN-3007 Chip: The heart of the original RE-501's sound is brought back to life, ensuring the Dirty-C delivers the same rich, vibrant chorus.
  • Fully Analogue Path: Keeps the signal pure, preserving the warmth and depth that digital effects often can't replicate.
  • Fully Balanced I/O: Ensures professional audio quality with minimal noise, ideal for studio integration.
  • Optional Hi-Z Input: For musicians who prefer to plug in directly, this feature supports high-impedance instruments, maintaining signal integrity.
  • Hand-built in the UK: Each unit is meticulously assembled, reflecting the dedication to quality and craftsmanship.

The Pope Audio Dirty-C isn't just an effect; it's a piece of audio history updated for the modern era, making the unique, lush chorus of the RE-501 accessible and practical for today's producers, engineers, and musicians. Whether you're looking to add shimmer to vocals, depth to guitars, or an otherworldly vibe to synths, the Dirty-C is your go-to for authentic chorus effects.
