VIENNA CHORUS

™

Radial Engineering Ltd.

Part # R800 7120

Bones Vienna Chorus

™

Ch-A - subtle chorus eect with moderate speed.

Ch-B - more dramatic chorus with deeper modulation.

Ch-A - slow, thick & lush chorus.

Ch-B - fast shimmer eect.

CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase of the Bones Vienna Chorus. The Vienna is a

high performance dual channel analog chorus pedal that employs an ‘old school’ analog

bucket brigade processor to produce the warm and lush chorus eect of years gone by.

The big dierence is that unlike those noisy old analog chorus pedals that sound cool but

are practically unusable, we have designed the Vienna so that it is quiet and hiss-free.

For maximum on-stage efﬁ ciency, the Vienna is equipped with two channels. These

let you toggle between two separate chorusing eects and bypass mode. Each chorus

channel features separate RATE and DEPTH controls that let you dial-in distinct chorus-

ing settings. Using the MODE footswitch, you can quickly toggle between the two chorus

channels to create eects such as a slow choral and fast Leslie. To add more spice,

the Vienna is also equipped with TURBO. When engaged, ‘turbo’ changes the oscillator

shape and chorus intensity to let you create more radical eects.

The Vienna chorus… just as fun as having an Austrian Choir plugged into you amp!

POWERING THE VIENNA CHORUS

The Vienna requires the same type of power supply as used by Boss™, MXR™ and

other popular pedals. This is typically a wall-type external power adapter that produces

9 to 12 volts DC with a 2.1mm barrel jack wired center pin negative . Bones

pedals will draw a maximum of 100mA. Possible damage may occur if another type of

power adapter is used. Consult your dealer for the best option to suit your pedal-board

setup.

CONNECTIONS AND SETUP

Before you begin, turn your guitar ampliﬁ er OFF. Connect the power supply adaptor. The

LEDs on the Vienna will illuminate when a footswitch is depressed indicating the pedal

is powered up and ready for use. Set the TURBO switch to normal.

To start, place the pedal in bypass mode by depressing the BYPASS footswitch (LEDs

o). Connect your guitar to the IN jack. Connect the OUT jack to your ampliﬁ er.

Always test your connections with your amp set at a low volume level. Turn your amp on.

If no sound is heard, check the guitar and power connections. If all is OK, turn your amp

up to a comfortable playing level.

Activate the pedal by depressing the BYPASS footswitch (LED on). Select channel-A

with the MODE footswitch (LED on). Adjust the RATE and DEPTH controls as needed.

Depress the MODE footswitch again and set up channel-B (LED o). At any time you

can switch the pedal into TURBO mode.

The wonderful advantage you get when using the Vienna chorus is switching between

two distinct chorus eects. Here are some sug-

gestions for using the two chorus channels.

First, channel-A could be set with a slow RATE

and lots of DEPTH to produce a thick and lush

chorus. While channel-B could be set to the op-

posite, a fast RATE with just a little DEPTH to

produce a subtle shimmer eect.

Another approach would use the same RATE set-

ting on both channels but with dierent amounts

of DEPTH. This would allow you to quickly toggle

between a standard chorus eect and a more

dramatic chorus with the footswitch. The TURBO

switch may be engaged to increase the range of

modulation between channels and even produce

rotating speaker type eects.

Take your time, experiment and have fun.

FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS

1. IN: 1/4” input jack for your guitar.

2. OUT: 1/4” output jack connection to your amp.

3. PSU: Connection for 9-12 volt DC, center pin negative

( ).

4. BYPASS: Footswitch toggles between chorus eect

and bypass. An on/o LED status indicator illuminates

when the eect is active.

5. MODE: Footswitch selects between chorus channels.

An LED status indicator illuminates when channel-A is

active.

6. CHANNEL-A: RATE controls the speed of the

modulation. DEPTH controls the amount of modulation.

7. CHANNEL-B: A second set of RATE and DEPTH

controls for channel-B work the same and allow the

Vienna to produce two unique chorusing eects.

8. TURBO SWITCH: Switches between normal and

TURBO. TURBO dramatically intensiﬁ es the eect by

increasing the depth of modulation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I use any 9 volt adapter to power the Bones?

There are many adapters that can supply 9-12 volts DC but to be compatible the adapter must also have a 2.1mm barrel plug wired center pin negative. The Bones draw

100mA of current to operate. Your adapter can be rated higher, for example 500mA, but not lower.

I hear a high frequency “whine”. What causes this and how do I get rid of it?

Most likely this is caused by the power adapter you are using. Some switching type power adapters can make noise that bleeds into the guitar signal. If you encounter high

frequency noise try a different adapter. We recommend standard linear adapters although we have successfully tested the Bones with both types.

Is the Vienna a true bypass pedal?

No. Bones pedals feature active buffering in bypass mode that lowers the output impedance allowing longer cables without noise or tone loss. This also enables us to

employ EIS - Electronic Impulse Switching that eliminates certain problems with true bypass designs. True bypass switching can be noisy when switching pedals on and

off producing pops and clicks. If used in conjunction with high-gain amps, that “pop” can become a loud “bang”. The EIS switch is 100% noiseless.

Which is better, True Bypass or Buffered Bypass?

Buffers are a good thing to have in your signal chain. They regulate your signal and lower the output impedance to drive long cables and dirty (oxidized) jack contacts.

However, buffers have received a bad reputation because some manufacturers design their buffer circuits to save money. That design strategy limits overall sound quality

of the bypassed signal and has created a demand for a better system. The simplest alternative was to do away with the buffer and provide a hard-wired bypass via a me-

chanical switch and the term “true bypass” was born. But this arrangement has a downside too. Mechanical switches can make noise and are less reliable than electronic

switching. The Bones are designed with a great sounding class-A buffer that emulates the input impedance of a typical tube amp. With a well designed buffer you get less

noise and great tone.

Why can’t the Vienna be powered by a battery?

It’s because of the class-A topology. Class-A circuits sound best but are power hungry and will drain a battery in no time.

I use several pedals. Where’s the best place to put the Vienna in my signal chain?

There are no rules but there are general guidelines when it comes to modulation pedals like chorus. Placing distortion pedals like the Bones Hollywood before a chorus,

ﬂ anger or phaser will make their effects more prominent because of the increased harmonics the distortion adds. If you use time based effects like reverb or delay you

can try placing the Vienna before them to produce “chorused” reverb and delay or after to “color” time based effect with chorus. Each method produces a slightly different
