chorus effect

Layered pitch modulation

Chorus effect is an audio processing technique that makes a single sound source seem like multiple sources playing together.

It works by duplicating a signal and slightly varying the timing and pitch of the copies, creating the rich, shimmering quality of voices or instruments playing in unison: The guitarist added chorus effect to thicken the sound.

Common on electric guitars, synthesizers, and vocals.
