Tremolo (M) and Tremolo (S)

	In Tremolo (M), the left and right			Tremolo (M)	Tremolo (S)
inputs are mixed together, then a
local sinewave generator modu-
lates the volume.
	In Tremolo (S) the left input is
modulatedby a local sinewave gen-
erator before going to the left out-
put. The right input is modulated by
sin, cos, -sin, or -cos, depending
on the Phase parameter.

UniVybe

Univybe is a recreation of a vin- tage Uni-Vibe. The Uni-Vibe, origi- nally intended for use with elec- tronic organs (as a replacement for rotating speakers), became an essential effect for many guitar- ists. Its dreamy swirling sound has become adefining elementof many Hendrix live and studio recordings (also used by Robin Trower, David Gilmore, Audley Freed and many others).

Our version is modeled on a vintage Uni-Vibe set to “chorus” with depth turned up all the way. The Rate control matches the range, and slightly wobbly shape of the original speed control. To get the classic effect, put a slow UniVybe in front of your guitar amp, set the amp for a moderate amount of gain and play the opening chords to “Little Wing”. You’ll find that that theeffect is more pronounced when you play clean and that it fades into the background as your tone gets more distorted.
