PolyPan-Box

The Polysubbass which came with the Paradis Avalon guitars between 1990 and 1995 had a stereo output with fixed paning.

Its beautiful to spread the strings in space. instead of using a chorus effect which brings a constant movement (and noise), this effect is stable and steady, yet open and large.

Especially interesting when not many other instruments are available, for example the voice in the center and the strings around it…

The other aspect of the PolyPan is to mix several pickups and in the end use the ANALOG clean sound of the guitar mixed with digital effects to get the best of both worlds
