Actually no - chorale IS the test.  And your abhorrence of the combination
of chorus/chorale kinda illustrates why.  The XK3 chorus sounds like
(something unprintable) with the chorale sim.  And a real Leslie doesn't
improve it.  I like the "color" (to borrow from Linda) of C3 chorus +
chorale, but so far it takes scanner chorus to make that possible.
 
To sum up, if the pig looks good with lipstick on it, then it's probably a
pretty good looking pig to start with.

I'm sure we're headed to agree to disagree territory.  

> it's OK for most gigs where subtleties don't count.
I do agree with that.  THAT being said, when I use the XK3 I always use the
chorus with the chorale OFF.  And usually with the chorus off too.

I got yer chorale right here, pal.

Disagreeably,
