Got minw yesterday, what a fantastic pedal! You're not going to find another Univibe anywhere near this price point that's half as good. Pre-ordered mine the day it was announced, wasn't supposed to be available in the US until May, same with the Centaur, that arrived last week. One thing I noticed, ifdoing the classic fuzz into Univibe, there's waaaaaay too much modulation. It sounds much better going Univibe into fuzz. The chorus sound with intensity and speed rolled back a bit sounds great on a clean/light dirt channel. Well worth the $70.
I'm glad they've started arriving in the US, it's really odd how they were delayed. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it, it certainly does give a lot of bang for your buck 👍
@Illneverremember1 Hendrix almost always ran fuzz first, after adding the univibe in '69, before dropping the Octavia in '70, it ran, strat, vox crybaby wah, Dallas Arbiter fuzz face, Octavia, Univibe, marshall stacks. He dropped the Octavia in '70 and towards the end of the BOG tour in '70 he started putting the Univibe before the Dallas Arbiter fuzz. He had long curly leads that apparently tamped down the highs, and he has modded amps to boost his treble because of this. The only reason I mention the last bit is that it's credited with helping him achieve his iconic tones.

It sounds like the more inexpensive vibe pedals-wow,wow,wow. It would do in a pinch. Once you've had a real good vibe pedal-I have a Fulltone Deja Vibe-you just wouldn't settle for something like this Berhinger.
They're putting these out for a third of the price, so I imagine it's a nice way of seeing if that sound is for you before committing and dropping the serious cash.
@@BudgetPedalChap It's good for what it is. The thing about vibe pedals is, in a live band setting you only use them on a few songs and the Behringer would be good enough.I also do use the vibe setting on my Zoom MS 50 G pedal.With the proper tweaking I can get to sound pretty good.Nobody would know or care what vibe pedal you're using anyway. It's when you're sitting at home or recording that you hear the difference with one of the more expensive vibe pedals.

@@bruceman9581 I haven't, but my buddy had a look inside and said it is bunch of optocouples. So not strictly a true replica, but very much in the style of 👍 I have put the preorder down for Octavia already 😉
@@BudgetPedalChap- I had a Cool Cat Vibe and didn’t like it because it didn’t sound anything like a Uni Vibe, the Chicken Salad though is really good, I like it a lot.
Great demo!!! Thanks for the time passed. ❤ I have a big DIY Univibe Shin-Ei very accurate, the Univibe MXR, a Rotovibe Dunlop, a JHS Unicorn and I must admit the 69 vibe is really nice. It’s not the Shin-Ei because it sounds too much « autowah » and does not go as deep as the real one but it’s worth the hype and the price of course!!! All fake univibes are fun but this one is cheap, well made (I looked inside and tried to trim the 3 small pots but the only one really effective was the speed).
Funny you should mention that, I know I've got a lamp and photocells vibe kicking about somewhere by Jed's Peds, which was rather tasty sounding and very authentic. Like you say, it's inexpensive and gets most of the way there (and it's also got a cheeky nod to the look of the original), so it's easy to justify having one 👍
Nice one mate. Only problem is, seeing the impending review countdown just convinced me to buy a second hand Viscous Vibe to replace the one I foolishly sold a couple of years ago. How do you feel it stacks up against the VV?
I love TC stuff, there always solid. I think the 69 vibe gets deeper than I've managed to get the vv to go, but I can't fault the TC stuff. You get loads of versatility with the toneprints, I would suggest trying Devin Townsend's setting if you want that real deep throb 👍
I'm interested for sure. I'm hoping the VV is as good as I remember, and won't get rid this time!! The '69 Vibe will defo be on my list though. With an exp pedal of course!
I’m surprised you could get such great sounds with the volume at 12 o clock. I got mine this week, and needed to have the volume cracked full to be at parity.
@@evanherb5900I tried to trim the internal pots and only one is really responsive. It changes the speed of the effect. The 2 others are more subtles and don’t really change anything.
Nice to see you can get a good Univibe sound without spending a ridiculous amount like a ridiculous person :) Cork sniffers be damned, this will sound spot on in an actual mix.
you should not compare a large company that manufactures entry-level pedals and a craftsman who will put in quality components because he is passionate. To say that the Berhinger has a good sound really means that you have never played on a real Univibe pedal. I think it's spending your money stupidly, because it's an item that you will put in the cupboard to buy something better. a vibe is a complex effect with rare components that are expensive. if you want to have the same sound as the original shin ei univibe you have to pay the price there is no choice. all you will find on thoman are purely commercial poor quality effects. I live in Germany and here the guitarists make the craftsmen work. I prefer to buy a quality pedal for €800 from a craftsman than €800 from Thoman. a good vibe pedal is 800/1000€ after a person who is not looking for the quality of his Behringer will be very good for him
@@taularvicieu9428 Gear snobbery isn't impressive to anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together, and it certainly is of little to no value when making, you know, MUSIC. I've personally played more expensive vibes (Sabbadius, etc.) and found the difference in sound marginal at best when played solo, never mind in a mix (again, this is supposed to be for making music). Don't mislead people just because YOU feel the need to rationalize your inordinately expensive gear purchases.
@@evanherb5900This is not snobbery but common sense. knowing how to educate your ears is the basis of a guitarist. this kind of cheap pedals are very good for the price they cost, but any reasonable and lucid person is capable of understanding and hearing that the sound is not good. the univibe is a hypnotizing and quite complex effect with a history loved by many guitarists. I'm not misleading people, on the contrary, it's not because you don't have musical ears that they should think that all people are like you. I started with cheap pedals (mxr univibe, electro harmonix good vibes, jhs, drybell, deja vibe) each time I sold them because I didn't have the sound I wanted. I then saved up to buy a Sir Henri for €900 and once plugged in I had a blast, the sound was so clear, thick, warm, deep, the throb was finally present, I became passionate about this effect, I 've tried sabbadius, roger mayer, honey vibe bro. I would have liked someone to advise me 15 years ago I wouldn't have wasted my money on poor quality pedals made in China with low end components. now I don't criticize cheap pedals, I have a klon centaure aliexpress clone with the same housing as the original and it sounds very good.
@@nodrog5150 I got mine from Andertons, delivery was a bit more tbf. Gear4Music are great though, I've bought a fair few decent bits from them. It'll be worth the extra wait 👍
save your money for a better pedal. the sound is not good If you want a good pedal at the same price, the Moen Jimi Shake is much better. but a good vibe is very expensive 700/1000$
LOL you absolutely don't need to spend anywhere near that for a good, authentic Univibe. JAM and Drybell both make worthy contenders for a fraction of that. Thinking you have to spend anywhere near a grand for a simple photocell circuit is pure cope. Don't mislead people.
The community has been going wild for the series, they keep selling out. There are some countries that haven't even got theirs yet, so it's building a hype around this line for sure

Vibe before fuzz sounds way better IME.
I believe Hendrix used fuzz after. It's more fuzzy and less vibey. I like both. We all should. lol
