“A Univibe circuit is a pretty complex beast. The bulk of the sound on the original Univibes was dependent on this lightbulb flashing on and off inside. And when you’re trying to condense that into a very compact box like this one, you’re going to start sacrificing some of the sound. So this is, in my opinion, one of the best solutions for getting as close to the sound as you can in as smaller housing as possible. I only use it on one song, which is Blue On Black. We have a rhythm part that comes in right at the top of the second verse. I go from the acoustic sound to the Univibe for the rhythm.”

"Then the signal goes to a Boss Tuner, Boss GE-7 EQ, Dunlop MXR Micro Univibe, into the Varidrive, into the Pigtronix Class A booster, into a t.c. electronic chorus, going up to the Korg Kaoss pad then into a Line 6 DL 4."

Description

Take a trip into endless sonic possibility.

If you listen to classic rock, then you've heard the wonderful and awe-inspiring sound of he Uni-Vibe Chorus/Vibrato. It's one of the most iconic effects in music history and that's not an exaggeration. Since the late ™60s, players pushing the limits of the guitar have used it to blow minds and reconfigure the tonal and textural palette of music.

The geniuses over at MXR have just remastered the classic effect for today's guitarist but in a smaller footprint while maintaining all of the gorgeously chewy, Leslie-sounding goodness.

With its simple three-knob interface, you can dial up the sound to your liking without problems. First, use the VIBE switch to select either Chorus Mode”dry signal mixed with pitch-shifted signal”or Vibrato Mode”only pitch-shifted signal. Then, use the LEVEL control to set the effect volume, the SPEED control to set the sweep rate, and the DEPTH control to set overall intensity.

The Uni-Vibe comes in a Phase 90-sized housing”a fraction of the size and weight of the original Uni-Vibe pedal”and features true bypass switching. Perfect for hitting the road with lush, swirly madness.

The Latest Great

Just added one to my set-up and really like it. If you put all the knobs on ten then back off a little you can find that crazy watery almost tremolo effect you hear on some Jimmy Page stuff; and set more moderately its a cool sort of shimmery thing you can add in place of chorus or phaser- more subtle, but still nice...

That Hendrix vibe...

Can't be replicated, its worth the price, which is pretty low. Gives me a sweet vibey tone I like.

Probably my favorite pedal. Can be used during almost any song.

This pedal is awesome. I use it all the time, as it works with a variety of different genres. If I want to play some spacey, Hoops-type stuff, I can use it. If I want to play some Jimi Hendrix, that works too. Overall, probably my favorite pedal.
