An electronic treatment, associated chiefly with the synthesizer and the electric guitar, applied to a signal to give the impression of a multitude of voices. It is based on the use of several parallel delay lines, each with a random variation of delay time centred on 30-40 ms, the chorus effect is used, as its name suggests, to create the impression of multiple sound sources from a 'solo' input.

Traitement électronique principalement associé au synthétiseur et à la guitare électrique et appliqué à un signal afin de donner l'impression d'une multitude de voix. Le chorus est basé sur l'utilisation de plusieurs lignes de délai en parallèle, chacune d'entre elles ayant une variation aléatoire de sa durée de l'ordre de 30 à 40 ms. Comme son nom l'indique, le chorus est utilisé pour créer l'impression de sources sonores multiples à partir d'une seule source en entrée. (Source - Richard Dobson (1992).

Trattamento elettronico associato principalmente al sintetizzatore e alla chitarra elettrica, e applicato a un segnale al fine di riprodurre l'effetto di una multitudine di voci. Il Chorus si basa sull'utilizzo di numerose linee di ritardo in parallelo, ognuna delle quali ha una variazione aleatoria del tempo di ritardo nell'ordine tra i 30 e i 40 ms. Il Chorus è utilizzato per dare l'impressione di fonti sonore multiple a partire da una unica fonte in entrata.

Un tratamiento electrónico, asociado principalmente al sintetizador y la guitarra eléctrica, que se aplica a una señal para dar la impresión de que está compuesta por una multitud de voces. Está basado en el uso de varias líneas de retardo funcionando en paralelo, cada una con una variación aleatoria del tiempo de retardo centrado en alrededor de los 30 a 40 milisegundos. El efecto chorus (coro) se emplea, tal como el nombre sugiere, para crear la impresión de múltiples fuentes sonoras a partir de una "voz solista".
