WALRUS’ ANALOG CHORUS, VIBRATO AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN
The Walrus Audio Julia V2 is a fully analog chorus/vibrato with a ton of features and a vast variety of tonal landscapes just waiting to be explored. Julia has been upgraded for 2020 with top mounted jacks, soft switch bypassing, and new artwork by Adam Forster.
The Walrus Audio Julia V2 is skilled at producing a variety of vocal effects, from a gentle smooth chorus to a seasick vibrato and everything between. You may adjust all different kinds of classic and distinctive chorus/vibrato sounds with controls like Lag, Dry-Chorus-Vibrato Blend, and customizable analog LFO wave patterns; some settings give a familiar feel while others are absent from conventional chorus pedals.
The Lag control is one of the Julia’s unique features. You may adjust the LFO effect’s center delay time using the Lag knob. The Lag knob gives the typical Chorus/Vibrato landscape a new dimension, ranging from tight and smooth modulation at lower levels to warbling detune at maximum.
While most chorus/vibrato pedals offer a toggle to go between the two effects, Walrus Audio Julia V2 provides a knob to blend between Dry, Chorus, into Vibrato (labeled d-c-v on the pedal). The Dry-Chorus-Vibrato Blend changes the ratio of dry to wet signal sent to the output. At minimum, you will hear no effect. Set it to noon for equal parts dry and wet – the traditional chorus setting. Set it to maximum for 100% wet – the traditional vibrato setting. Explore the ground between minimum and noon for adding slight amounts of movement to your dry signal (also making the Julia great on bass guitar). Explore the ground between noon and maximum for all sorts of unheard chorus/vibrato combinations.
