The Last Ménage Threeway Stereo Chorus

An authentic replica of a specific 1980s BBD rack chorus that haunts the market with vintage unobtainium — now reborn in compact form, with Tap Tempo and a few carefully chosen updates.

The Threeway Stereo Chorus features three distinct chorus voices, each powered by its own bucket-brigade device. Their interaction creates the impossibly thick, liquid modulation that defined an era of guitar playing.

Whether shimmering in stereo or gently warbling a clean signal, it’s the sound of too much, but just right.

A faithful recreation of the original circuit, the Threeway can operate in Preset, Manual, or Hybrid mode (both active at once). Tap Tempo interacts with the Tempo X switch for real-time control, while the added Mix knob blends dry and wet signal for finer texture.

RT ElecTRonix gained access to a prime example of the triple-voice rack unit and documented its every nuance before re-engineering it to be quieter, clearer, and small enough to fit in a standard pedal enclosure. The result is everything the original promised — but much smaller and (relatively) more economical.
