Its ok.
I think my old Digitech RP255 had a far better Chorus than this Corona. However this one is also ok but for the more subtle chorusing as the more radical settings take away some clarity. Im sure all this can be tweaked in the editor but Im more of a "knobs guy". I very much dislike editors.
As Im only to use this for basic subtle chorus Im not sure its the right pedal for me. The cheaper TC BBD chorus would be a better choice for me and is ...cheaper :)

TC Electronic Corona Chorus
Build Quality:
The casing is really solid. To remove the bottom plate, you undo a large bolt with a coin with only a little pressure but it's still strong enough to be more than secure enough. All the knobs feel like they fit really well. The foot switch feels a little loose but not flimsy. I'm certain it can stand up to years of use.
Sound Quality:
There's a pretty large range of sounds in the Corona but I've found it hard to hit the sweet spot consistantly. It goes from subtle to over the top very quickly. I set it to a bright, sweet sound that's just audible and I'm set.
Extra Features:
It's got the toneprint feature of all the small TC pedals which I think is a bit of a gimmick. I've used a few toneprints but never really like them or saw the point of them. So far I didn't try the editor software, it would be a different story though. Besides the Toneprint feature it has two other modes: TriChorus and a standard mode. Lastly, if you unscrew the bolt on the back, there's a couple of switches for switching between buffered and true bypass modes which I think is a great idea.
Overall:
Overall I think it's a great little bang for your buck pedal. It's packed with features and even without the toneprints, it's might be a keeper.

chorus ensemble
This is a Chorus for someone who doesn't know what chorus he wants.
with the toneprint you can tweek in the finest details. I use it to flavour some solo's or riffs. i love it!

Great generic versatile chorus
I love how all the knobs are interactive and impact on the overall sound.
Great to use the toneprint feature so I can have the specific type of sound I'm going for. I bought this pedal before TC Electronic introduced the smartphone app, which is just revolutionary!! When they did they made it work with this pedal right out-of-the-box, which surprised me. Many other companies would have locked that feature to previous models just to make you buy the newest and greatest. Not TC, and for that they just won this customer for life.

TC Corona for a fretless
I needed a chorus for fretless playing and the TC Corona offers all you expect from a TC pedal. The tone print and its editor (download) is a great feature. Its solid and feels good My only niggle as I find with some TC stuff is that the top frequencies tend to disappear when the pedals engaged. Other than that its good.

Corona Chorus
quite a nice pedal, can get good rich chorus and the stock setting on the switch seems pretty good. not tried the app that lets you configure your own sound and send it to the pedal so cant comment on that as yet. pretty rugged and does not suck tone when on bypass. nice chorus pedal
