Get rich texture and shimmer with legendary studio hardware.

An exacting emulation of the Roland Dimension D^* introduced in 1979, the Studio D Chorus plug‑in gives you the "secret sauce" analog widening effects used by the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Brian Eno, M83, and many more.

Now you can give your guitars, drums, synths, and vocals the same stunning analog modulation textures of the iconic vintage rack gear — with the push of a button.

Add Thickness and Width to Anything

Just like the vintage hardware, use Studio D Chorus' push buttons in any combination for a colorful palette of subtle thickening. Engage all four buttons at once and you get a beautiful chewy modulation texture that works on any instrument.

Create Movement and Interest

Make simple guitar/vocal arrangements sound deeper and more interesting, or quickly gel groups of strings and vocals — without compression, EQ, or reverb. For floating guitar textures and synth pads, the Studio D Chorus plug‑in simply can’t be beat.
