Critic Reviews

Review: Voodoo Lab Micro Vibe | Guitar Gear

guitargear.org

The Voodoo Lab Micro Vibe is a versatile pedal delivering rich, psychedelic tones reminiscent of the classic UniVibe. While praised for its compact design and true-bypass feature, it can be finicky with low-end boominess and tricky to integrate with certain overdrive pedals, notably the Fulltone OCD. Despite these quirks, its affordability and responsiveness to input gain make it a solid choice for vibe enthusiasts seeking a dedicated effect without breaking the bank.

Magnificent

The first auditory impression of the pedal is good: standard size, natural sound, easy to understand and use. But you must keep in mind that when you activate it, the sensation of volume decreases, projection, clarity and presence are very lost in the mix band context. I know it is the nature of this type of modulations (phaser, flanger, chorus, tremolo). But stil that you get a nice Vibe FX. Mine made a lot of noises and it took me a long time to find the cause of the problem: the cables. This pedal is highly sensitive to the quality and health of your cables, equipment, and parasite signals, so, before spending money on other power supplies, or noise gates, its better get the best cables you can buy, also, check the ground connections throughout your chain, jacks, pots, and the shielding of your guitar. Once this problem is solved this fucking pedal is simply excellent. "Bravo" Voodoo Labs. By the way, combined with a pitch shifter, you can get easy a good organ-type sounds.

"I've got a Voodoo Labs Micro Vibe for the kind of Robin Trower-y... (proceeds to demonstrate tone) Which is such a good sounding pedal. I actually tried that by accident, 'cause I forgot to bring my pedalboard to a gig once and I borrowed sombody else's pedalboard. They had that on there and I'm like 'Man, this, I love this Voodoo Labs Micro Vibe!' So I bought one and the only problem was I didn't like the way it looked. Just, somehow, the colors... It was buggin' me. So I took Robin Trower's Bridge of Sighs album cover and put it in Photoshop, made it purple so it sort of matched my guitar, printed it out on a regular piece of paper and taped it to the pedal. So there's my, y'know, my customized front. So now I can look at it and I don't go like 'Aagh! It's the wrong color!'"

Santiago relies upon a relatively modest yet rather intriguing array of pedals to achieve a wide variety of tones and effects. These include a Fulltone OCD overdrive, a Way Huge Swollen Pickle, a Voodoo Lab Micro Vibe, a Menatone Pleasure Trem 5000 tremolo, a Maxon AD9 analog delay, a Moogerfooger MF-108M (controlled by a Roland EV-5 expression pedal), an Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail, an Electro-Harmonix PitchFork, a DOD FX-17 Wah-Volume and a MXR ten-band EQ.

The Voodoo Lab micro vibe is an older model, no LED and I swapped the DC jack for a boss style. It’s does the Hendrix thing pretty well, and the speed knob has been swapped for easy foot adjustments.

I like to place all my modulation effects first to avoid that harsh distorted white noise swish.
