First jam with Chroma Console
I used it to process yamaha reface cp and sampled it in DT II. Also for Pro 800 sequenced from DT II.
Not sure if I am a fan of the CC yet. I like it but I might have prefered an AHFX, notably the filter part. However it does enhance the Pro 800 that has no onboard FX and it is very fun to use
I’ve started messing with the Drift parameter on various engines, and it can produce some interesting results. With the Pitch Shift engine at +0, you can dial in a chorus sound by tweaking the Drift and Mix settings. This allows you to keep the overall signal at full wet. That chorus or Phaser would probably sound good on the 800
I can confirm this phasing issue. It seems unlikely it’s a fault with individual units, and possibly a problem with the algorithm itself. I also can hear it in YT review videos.
Does this phasing issue remain if you use only 1 output of your CC?
phasing I notice if it is not 100% wet and on specific algos such as tape / vibrato, but it phases because it is because the pitch is modified , etc. Makes sense to me.
I mostly have it on the Cascade delay, sounds like when a delay is on purpose very left panned. The Reels delay is way more balanced and provides a distinct ping-pong feel.
Sexy.
I heard it sounds better when you don’t wear pants.
Well in that case, it’s gonna sound downright amazing!!!
Nooooooooooo…
…it‘s probably not possible to buy only the black case and exchange it by yourself…?
Maybe I‘ll ask this Hologram directly via mail…
Which color sounds better?
Haha! Of course, the new colour 
I wanted to order it last week, but didn’t for some reason. Now I know why…
I think I like the regular color a bit more… reminds me of an old Commodore 64 
But I have to admit I never seen the Chroma Console irl…
We all need demos in black.
I don’t think the color scheme works well with black. But I also find black gear just incredibly boring. Still, CC seems to be designed for that old school medical equipment beige.
I like it. Pulled me offsides and forced me to order.
Same here. Hologram has done some cool alternate color schemes for the Microcosm, but the black CC isn’t doing anything for me. I like my OG beige CC.
In an unrelated note, I was playing the Chroma on guitar today and experimenting with the Squash effect. I’ve typically just used Filter for the character slot because I don’t like the low end on guitar ringing out. I was shocked how much fun it was to play to the compressor (after distortion in the chain). You have to dial it in for how much dynamics you want, but once you get it set (I had it around 9-10 o’clock on the dial), it’s pretty great. You can dig in and get some burn from the distortion, but without the huge swings in volume. It’s quite useable.
