Uni-Vibe Vs Harmonic Tremolo [Plus Fuzz & OD Order]- That Pedal Show

  • Do you prefer Vibe or Harmonic Trem? And what’s the difference anyway? Let’s find out…
    Life too short for long RUclips videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
    Please note: ‘Uni-Vibe’ is a registered trademark of Dunlop Manufacturing Inc.
    Welcome to the show! Today we’re comparing two effects that can easily be confused for one another: vibe and harmonic tremolo.
    Vibe is derived from the ‘Uni-Vibe’ of 1968, and it’s the classic churning, pulsing, four-stage phaser created using a bulb and light dependent resistors. Robin Trower, Jimi Hendrix, Trey Anastasio, Gilmour… you know it when you hear it!
    Harmonic tremolo came about almost a decade earlier in a handful of Fender guitar amplifiers.You take two tremolo circuits, make one deal with higher frequencies, one deal with lower frequencies and put them out of phase. There’s no pitch shifting going on (as there is in the Magnatone vibrato for example). It’s a mesmeric sound that doesn’t have the gut-wrenching churn of vibe.
    We are using two of our favourite modern recreations of each effect for today’s examples. Clearly there are many, many others to choose from and no doubt you all have your favourites: these are ours.
    After explaining and comparing the effects themselves we move on to discussing some related tone questions, chiefly the order in which you might want to use overdrive and fuzz, which is always the subject of much debate.
    Enjoy the show!

      @@YanYeiDei Yes! I've done two or three licks they've played. I can't really nail them exactly like that played (I just recently started doing that, and I haven't practiced much), but I can't even have to copy their playing, I can play the same thing my own way. The most important thing is that these licks and riffs aren't what I usually play, and I'm actually expanding my vocabulary by playing different things, getting out of my comfort zone and challenging myself. Having breakdowns of some of the riffs and licks would make it a bit easier, but there's nothing wrong in working harder. 😁

    The vibe background is far more fascinating than a Leslie and has some cold war context. Not to get too nerdy, but the Univibe inventor Fumio Mieda, says himself in an interview on an Deeper's view episode (Japanese guitar gear channel) available on youtube, he did NOT intend to imitate the Leslie effect, but tried to capture the effect he heard on powerful Radio Moscow propaganda broadcasts jamming japanese middle wave transmisions and hitting the ionosphere. He described it as a phasing effect that was produced by the ionosphere changing height during night. Basically a natural phenomenon made audible by radio waves.
    Truly inspiring and fascinating stuff.

    Great comparison, Gents. Here's my 2 Cents:
    To save both money and pedal board real estate, I combine my Supro Tremolo with a Mooer Orange 90 Phaser.
    That's obviously not a Univibe, but it works for me and by switching between Amplitude and Harmonic Tremolo on the Supro, different vibes (no pun intended) can be achieved - plus, by experimenting with the Speed dial on both pedals, different degrees of "swirlyness" can be obtained…

    One thing I've found with my univibe (Fulltone DejaVibe MKII) is that less can be more. I dial back the speed to super slow and the vibe simply colors the sound in a syrupy way. Couple that with a compressor up front and you get in a Lowell George space for slide. Great episode guys. Good stuff!

    I love that uni-vibe pedals have a master volume and I wish that more modulation pedals did.
    The ability to underdrive a dirty amp while adding a cool effect is just brilliant.

    Hey guys. Great show as usual. I have a vibe and harmonic tremolo on my board as my only wobble pedals. TPS is where I first learned about both types and I love ‘em so thanks. In my case it’s a Fulltone DejaVibe and a Walrus Monument. The vibe goes before the drive section, the tremolo after delay before reverb. I’ve discovered that a vibe sounds killer into a Prince of Tone on “OD” with the drive at about noon or a little better. The POT’s slight mid lift and bass rolloff help it cut. Thanks for all you do.

    Mick, your playing in this video is top notch. No disrespect to Dan whatsoever, but you can tell you really vibe
    (pun intended)with those sounds. Also, that Casino sounds so good. Such an amazing change after the pickup upgrade.

And then I hear you saying things like you’re doing “average Hendrix impressions” or that you’re an “enthusiastic amateur” (paraphrasing you from way back) and I just think “wow - what does that make MY playing?!”. In short, I find your playing totally inspiring, both in tone and in content. Stop selling yourself short! Thank you for listening to my TED Talk...

Very intrigued by the Monk, this has been a great exploration of it and to compare it to similar style pedals has been extremely useful. So thank you as always chaps for top quality content!
