Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

MXR's stereo chorus in a standard pedal enclosure. For players running two amps or a stereo rig who want modulation with width.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Stereo rigs where the chorus spread does real work
  • Clean rhythm tones that need movement without washing out
  • Funk and pop parts where shimmer sits under the groove

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Single-amp players who won't use the second output
  • Anyone needing a compact board footprint
  • Players after subtle, barely-there modulation only

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

MXR M-134 Stereo Chorus Pedal construction detail

Detail 01

Stereo outputs

Two outputs let the modulated and dry signals split across separate amps, which is where the width actually comes from.

Detail 02

Chorus circuit

Copies your signal, detunes and delays the copy slightly, then blends it back. Result reads as thickness and motion.

Detail 03

Touch-sensitive response

The effect tracks your picking dynamics rather than flattening them, so hard and soft passages stay distinct.

Detail 04

Standard pedal enclosure

Bolts to a pedalboard like any other stompbox, but takes more real estate than a mini pedal.

Detail 05

Around $200

Mid-tier pricing. Above the entry chorus pedals, below boutique modulation.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Power supply and cables sold separately — budget for both
  2. 02Stereo needs two amps or a stereo interface; mono works but loses the point
  3. 03Two output cables mean two more runs to manage on your board

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I use it in mono?

Yes, run one output into one amp. You'll get the chorus effect, just not the stereo spread that's the main reason to buy this one.

02Does it need a battery or an adapter?

Power isn't included either way. Plan on a standard pedalboard power supply rather than counting on a battery.

03Where does it go in my signal chain?

Modulation usually sits after drive and before delay and reverb. If you run an effects loop, chorus generally goes there rather than in front of the amp.

04Is it good for bass?

It's built as a guitar chorus. Bass players do use chorus, but check how the low end holds up before committing, since this one isn't voiced for it.
