Passionately hand-crafted in U.S.A.
The North Star Wobbler. The CopperSound Polaris is a chorus & vibrato pedal with two independent depth levels, accessible on the fly. After being inspired by the original Small Clone, we moved forward from there. We started by replacing the depth switch in favor of a knob on Polaris. This allows for better control of the modulation depth. Following in the steps of our Daedalus reverb, we incorporated a second depth knob that is selectable via the secondary footswitch. The original circuit did not have any tone control options. We also decided to implement a Tone knob on Polaris. This knob allows the user to add or cut lower bass presence to the signal. Once we had a tone section sculpted to our liking, we placed a master Volume knob at the end of the circuit. The Volume knob goes from full cut to slightly boosted above unity volume. These two knobs work in conjunction with each other. Lastly, we added a Mode toggle switch to seamlessly alter between chorus and vibrato modes on Polaris. The end result is a luscious, all analog chorus and vibrato pedal with tons of cool options and features.
