Walrus Audio Julianna Deluxe Chorus/Vibrato, (Used)
The Walrus Audio Julianna Deluxe Chorus/Vibrato is the expanded stereo evolution of the hugely popular Julia, offering lush analogue chorus and vibrato with an extensive set of modern performance features. Handmade in the USA, the Julianna retains the rich analogue signal path that made the Julia famous while adding stereo operation, tap tempo, expression control, modulation drift, random waveforms and flexible routing options. It is equally capable of subtle vintage chorus, seasick vibrato and expansive ambient modulation.
With independent controls for Rate, Depth, Lag and the signature Dry-Chorus-Vibrato (D-C-V) blend, the Julianna allows players to dial in everything from classic '80s chorus sounds to unique pitch-shifting textures. Whether you're playing indie, dream pop, worship, shoegaze or experimental music, the Julianna delivers exceptional analogue modulation with modern flexibility.

Why Choose The Walrus Audio Julianna?
Rich All-Analogue Chorus & Vibrato
The Julianna uses an analogue audio path with a digital LFO, producing warm, musical chorus and vibrato sounds that retain excellent clarity while offering far greater flexibility than traditional analogue modulation pedals.
Stereo Operation
Unlike the original Julia, the Julianna features full stereo inputs and outputs, making it ideal for stereo amplifiers, wet/dry rigs and studio recording setups.
Tap Tempo & Secondary LFO Speed
Tap Tempo allows precise synchronisation of modulation speed, while the secondary LFO function lets you instantly switch between two modulation rates during performance.
Signature Lag Control
The unique Lag control adjusts the centre delay time being modulated, allowing everything from subtle chorus movement to dramatic detuned vibrato textures unavailable on many traditional chorus pedals.
Expression & Drift Functions
Connect an expression pedal to control modulation parameters in real time, while the Drift function creates subtle, natural fluctuations that emulate vintage analogue modulation.
Built For Modern Pedalboards
Combining boutique analogue tone with advanced performance features, the Julianna is equally suited to live performance, studio work and ambient sound design.
Why Buy Pre-Owned?
Buying pre-owned offers an excellent opportunity to own a premium boutique modulation pedal while saving money.
Benefits include:
- Better value than buying new
- Professionally tested before sale
- Reduced depreciation
- Boutique USA-made construction
