Far and wide
Chorus DIMENSION-D has been painstakingly modeled after one of the most sought-after effects units of all time, the Roland Dimension D - championed by everyone from Kate Bush to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Now you too can bathe your mix in that same warm, spacious texture that’s earned legendary status in studios worldwide.
4-BUTTON OPERATION
Explore different combinations of the 4 buttons for rate and depth variations. Beautiful, immediate chorus for every application.
SPATIAL ENHANCER
Widen your vocals, enrich your keys and stretch your guitar parts across the stereo field. Space is the aim of the game.
BBD WARMTH
Chorus DIMENSION-D features authentic bucket-brigade device circuitry replication for stunning warmth and subtle saturation.
ADVANCED CONTROLS
Tweak the LFO shape, BBD compression, and stereo width beyond the capabilities of the original unit - make it your own.
The chorus that changed the game
The original Dimension D, introduced in the late '70s, offered an ultra-simple solution to the problem of spaciousness in a mix. For many producers, however, it transcended its original purpose.
Chorus adds subtle swirls and slow pitch modulation for a range of rich moving textures - but the Dimension became a go-to sonic sweetener. Something that simply made things sound broader, warmer and better-suited to a rich stereo mix.
This was thanks to the synergy between the BBD architecture, delicate compression, expansion & filtering, and a unique stereo wet/dry crossmix. Each feature has been carefully reconstructed in plugin form, component by component, for your virtual studio.
Beauty in simplicity
Sometimes, less is more.
Undoubtedly one of the standout features of Chorus DIMENSION-D is the simple 4-mode operation. No menu-diving, no in-depth parameter tweaking.
what you see is what you get.
Modes 1-3 offer fixed variations on modulation rate and depth. Mode 4 can then be used in conjunction with 1-3 for increased wet signal level. Instant analog chorus, from soft shimmer to animated waviness.
Choose from a selection of 8 curated presets for a taste of the iconic sounds that put this effect on the map.

The Modulation Greats, Retrofitted
Mesmerising stereo warbles. Stadium-sized jet engine sweeps. Resonant harmonics weaving in and out of each other. These aren’t just instrument effects; these are the secret weapons behind some of the most iconic sounds of all time. Legends in their own right, replicated down to the finest tonal detail.
It doesn’t end there - we’ve pushed these classics a step further. Modernized with new controls, algorithms and contemporary appointments, we wanted to ensure that they’ll meet the requirements of today’s music makers.
A legacy in sound
From rare guitar pedals to vintage rack units, we spent time meticulously analyzing hardware in search of the perfect modulation effects. The warmth of bucket brigade device architecture, the nuances of analog stereo spread, the subtle imperfections of hand-soldered components - the real magic lies in the finer details. We employed proprietary technology to accurately replicate these subtleties.
The result? A fine-tuned selection of effects that are as comprehensive as they are authentic.
Artists Corner
The 3 new Arturia Modulators blew me away, providing the classic sound and feel of the units I'd expect, but with the option of deep diving into the expanded control section and fine-tuning them beyond the parameters of the original units. Class acts!Emre Ramazanoglu
( Engineer / Mixing - Noel Gallagher, Carly Rae Jepsen, Sia )
There have been numerous attempts to emulate these classic units that have fallen short of the vibe of the originals. Arturia have nailed it with this latest release, which has managed to capture the depth and musicality of some of the hardware in incredible detail. An absolute joy to use.Tim Bazell
( Mix Engineer )
I used to think that these are 3 very peculiar effects that you either love or hate: Chorus, Phaser and Flanger. However, after using them for a while I can say I changed my mind about it. Been using Dimension-D every single day and I have been experimenting with Phaser and Flanger a lot lately which is something that I would never do.Thiago Baggio
( Recording & Mixing Engineer )
Hearing is believing and when I heard how the three modulators added a new layer to my mix I was sold. From simple modulations that make your beats feel wider to extreme modulations that take your sound to a whole new level of experimentation, the trio has you covered.Jacob Wilkinson-Smith

Where to start?
Get to know our modulation FX and their extensive features - pristine, intuitive sound for your mix, straight away.
Presets & tutorials
A new effect can be daunting if you're not familiar with it.
We've included a selection of presets for immediate access to the coolest modulation settings, no fiddling required. Better still, each plugin includes on-screen tips and step-by-step tutorials from our sound designers, highlighting relevant parameters and tweaks.
Modern enhancements
Our effects expand on the designs and features of the hardware that they're based on.
This lets you push them even further, to experiment in ways that would've previously been impossible. Tempo-synchronization, extensive parameter modulation, envelope manipulation - truly versatile sonic tools for any project.
Arturia Software Center
ASC is the central software that elegantly manages all your Arturia software licenses. It activates your licenses and synchronizes them across multiple devices (you get five instances with each instrument license). ASC also notifies you of updates and downloads them. You can even easily learn about new products, download demos versions and purchase the full products. Simple.
TAE® and Phi® Powered
To create its sound, this software title uses both of Arturia's exclusive modelling technologies. TAE® is used to map out, analyse, and reproduce the nuanced behaviour of analog electronic components and circuits. Phi® is focused on physical modelling, reproducing a virtual version of the original instrument inside your computer, letting you hear its resonance and vibrations, rather than simply playing back sampled recordings. The benefit of all this technology is also two-fold: it sounds absolutely amazing, and it gives you huge scope to tweak and personalize.
