Default IS there any point in using a digital chorus effect?

Well, Ive been trying out my lexicon 550 with a Prophet 5. The reverbs and delays are nice enough......apparently chorus and flange are supposed to be pretty damn good too. But I have to say.....that whenever I use the chorus on the Prophet 5...it sounds pretty shite to me. It has a dry, grainy muddiness......nothing like the silky smooth, warm 'n' wet Roland Juno 60 chorus. Well I guess this must be the difference between analog effects and digital ones. I'm actually very disapointed with the chorus on the lexicon....I dont think I'll be able to find much use for it. What do you guys typically use chorus for? What kind sounds (synth or otherwise).

*BTW.....in my opinion the Virus chorus sounds 'sweeter' and a little wetter than the lexicon. Just my opinion of course...

What do you guys think...

The SynthWizard has some advice - Back in the 1980's music was better, TV was better, films were better. Not to mention fashion.... Let me help you relive the past with some classic 80's sounds from my vintage synth collection....
