Keeley combines Drive, Chorus and Rotary for versatile new DCR pedal

Keeley has announced a nicely appointed offshoot of its DDR Drive Delay Reverb, the DCR Drive Chorus Rotary.

Other features include true bypass switching and a TRS effects loop, for inserting other effects between the drive and modulation.

We can't see this being quite as essential as the DDR, but it could make a better fit for blues and funk players.

The DCR is available now for $179 from Keeley Electronics.
