The fact there is no change in volume up or down when it’s engaged or disengaged is huge. One of the most annoying things about photo-optical effects like a Vibe or Tremolo is that volume weirdness. This is the first one I’ve heard that keeps those notes crystal clear when it’s engaged - AND it plays nice with fuzz boxes. Excellent review.

That's right up my alley - thanks Buddy!

How did this not win an Academy Award! Oh my god my blood pressure is so high right now! I am outraged!! OUTRAGED! This video had everything. I laughed.... I cried ....I learned a little Italian...what more do you want!

Great Hendrixy tones brother!💣🎸👊🏾💯🫡✊🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤘🏾 thx 4 putting that vibe BEFORE the fuzz!

Great demo, I think you've convinced me. I've checked out every other vibe mentioned in the comments and can't hear anything better than what you've produced here. Thanks for aiding me in my quest

I went through my own very expensive Univibe clone journey too. I'm sure this is good, but you get to a certain point and they're all good with slight variations in frequencies. Me, I settled on an MJM 60s Vibe. Same photocell, light, etc. It's a fantastic vibe too.

I was looking for the uni vibe to melt my brain and perhaps it was your sound and playing but I ordered one immediately after watching this. It has the perfect throb I think!

I can tell you that your video convinced me to buy this pedal and I don't regret it. It's the first univibe I've ever owned and I don't believe I'll ever buy another one. It's just beautiful 👍

Yes!!! I couldn't wait for this vid, so I bought one after your recommendation and it does not disappoint!!! Currently absolutely loving a slow vibe speed into the Protein 🤤

I'm Italian and your pronunciation is so good that ypu almost fooled me in the intro👉🏽

This pedal is definitely now on my short list of must haves...Love this channel...Awesome playing!

Another great post Buddy! The Formula B seems to cover all the bases the other Univibe clones miss. I knew the wait for this post would be worth it. Your Italian is better than my Lebanese!

Hell yes....I've been waiting to hear you do a review on this!

Holy shit man, your playing is TASTY. It totally fits the vibe of a univibe (no pun intended.) Awesome review and video

Great video man! Subbed, knew this pedal, but this is the best demo I've seen

its a real pleasure to hear you playing

Keep doing you and we'll keep watching you do it man! That was great

I just bought one of these and it’s fantastic! I like that it’s pedalboard friendly too.

I have been on a modulation pedal journey. I keep a small board and only have room for one modulation pedal. I have gone through an insane amount of pedals. Currently have the boss ce-2w on the board. Just snagged one of these off of reverb. Excited never jumped into the uni-vibe clone world yet.

One thing about Uivibes is it plays you, you don't play it.. Timing with synchronicity is the way it is.

Thank You for your great video Buddy Blues Salutes from Spain 🇪🇸 Bless You Al

Great sounding Vibe, Nice 66 Stat. Another great review.

loved your presentation!

Currently digging my Deja Vibe by Fulltone but gotta say this one sounds killer!

o man that sounds amazing! Great review and video as always. I'm definitely interested in seeing another review of his pedals.

This was the first video of yours I've seen. It ended up costing me $311. Thanks

My Jam Retrovibe arrives tomorrow. Hope it ends my vibe search.

This video sounds great I the video. I'm not sure why some people are quick to dismiss the Fulltone Dejavibe or the VooDoo Labs Micro Vibe...both are very good sounding Univibe clones! A lot of the classic vibe sounds were after are played thru an amp cranked to breakup, which DOES make a difference in how the vibe sounds. I think that's a big part of the equation.... some vibe pedals are made for that and some arent.

Wow. Ignore the pedal (great), or your playing (great). That Strat is special!

Great pedal and great guitarplayer...i'm saving money to buy

The vibe - Excellent. Leslie eh... the Neo Ventilator II is worth the space it takes on my board. I did enjoy the video.

First of all welcome back we look forward to seeing these videos and great job with this demo This is definitely a pedal I would and may buy This one spoke to me “ buy me, buy me” Side note , please for the love of God tell me you record these videos at 11pm so your neighbors get to enjoy them too.

Hey Buddy, good video here, with that bonus Italian thrown in. I know you said you were consciously avoiding the 3 songs everyone appears to play in YT Vibe demos. But for reference you should play one. I felt the amp was struggling to handle the fuzz + octave section - dynamic playing there tho, really dug that.

Can't be true when the Sir Henry exists

I found that it's one of those effects where you need to go all in, - or not waste the effort.You need the original design. The deep pulse and throb makes it different in both modes; traditionally, Fulltone( FT were a first in many things in the States, to give credit where due) had the only credible copy, but now there's Jam, - and this.At one time, I would have jumped, but currently, I'm content finding the million or so sounds available on the Walrus Julianna and Monument, - both with expression pedal control. I'm all about creating minimal repetitive patterns, where such subtle underlying movement can add critical interest.Sometimes, it's actually surprising how little it takes to successfully carry a composition; I think it is a common mistake to add more than is needed and trash the natural flow just to be playing more. Univibe is a good exercise in restraint, - or all out excess.

Great video learning about this vibe. I like the Fulltone custom shop vibe also, but out of biz now:( Thanks so much! Really dig you pedalboard and playing/musicality, aka you Rock!

Fulltone Deja Vibe and Electro Harmonix Good Vibes are the best vintage Uni Vibe

💯 for humor and personality! Bravo! Looking into options. This, Roger Mayer and Shin Ei. Thx for this! Keep it up.

Carl Martin purple moon V1 was quite a bit a similar product, and they threw in a fuzz face in the circuit (if you want mix both) . The V2 there's only 1 vibe instead of 2. Have you tried one of those? the price point is way different.

Sounds like majestic magic. This dude smokes! Cool video -

Hi, really enjoyed your video - great sound, great playing and some added humour to boot! The Vintage Vibe sounds great and with the option of 2 speeds is versatile too. Does it have option for expression pedal out? I have the Effectrode Tube Vibe which has a more subtle 'throb' but the sound from the tubes is lovely and warm.

Dude u r hilarious in 2 language! Awesome, I just subscribed

I wonder what you think about the EHX Good Vibes. Your pedal sounded just like one to me.

Awesome playing and effect.........

Sounds awesome👍

Oof man, you ripped hella hard in this video!! Because of that, I’m convinced and bought a vintage vibe myself 😂

OMG this is one of the best Uni Vibe clones ever in my opinion the best Uni Vibes that you can get are the Unique Vibe and the Shiftee-Vibe, the Mega-Vibe, MJM 60s Vibes, The Formula B vintage Vibe, the Vibe Bro, the Sabbadius Vibes, the King Tone 68 and the Roger Mayer Voodoo Vibe. personally I really like to have the speed of the Vibe be controlled by a expression pedal.

I bought one and I love it...tks for rockin' the demo brother. BTW, have you ever adjusted the mini trimpot inside, and if so, what setting do you prefer (full left 00-25-50-75-100% full right)? Thank you so much!

I was expecting more- DejaVibr mini has the sweet spot for 200 and Funky Vibe fucking kills this pedal

SPEED ONE: BRIDGE OF SIGHS SPEED TWO: MACHINE GUN GETTING ONE OF THESE! BYE BYE PICKLE VIBE VOLUME DROP!

That vibe sounds killer.

The very best uni Vibes are the Fulltone Deja Vibes hand made and 100% accurate..

Great sounding vibe !! I want to get one !!

The Funky Vibe is great too!

Absolutely beautiful, also the other pedals on your board like the Supro tremolo

Sounds great but my favourite is still the Roger Mayer's Voodoo-Vibe+

Yeah, got to get me one of these! Lol! So far this is the best sounding one I've heard in reviews. Wish I could play one to try it, but thats not happening!

That nice "Woosh Wash" is the sound. Star Spangled Banner Woodstock.

Thanks for your italian Buddy! Cheers from Italy ;-)

It would be cool if it can be tap tempo of effects, but hey its vintage gear.

The pedal sounds good. Do you really have to buy it online? Bummer..

Very nice I'll stick to my MxR M68 Uni vibe tho 😁🤟🏻👍🏻

Great vibes from Italy , there is also one from Cornerstone pedals

Tried Drybells.. Fulltone..a few other..never totally happy w them The Kingtone 68 seems good cause 2 speeds...aha two speeds on this one too Hmmm good stuff But think I need to go w rotary pedal instead

That was a nice pedal for 9v.

I'm on the hunt of a "Univibe pedal". Would this still be a good option a year later? I'm aware of other pedals that have recently hit the market, but the price ofthe Formula B is quite contained and I'm seriously considering purchasing one. Great video and awesome playing Buddy.

Omg I’m in love with the sound, what songs were you playing? (If you were playing a song)

Hey man, the Nux Monterey Vibe is actually pretty good for a digital vibe AND it’s actually unique being a one a button micro format with tap tempo. Just interested as to what you though was terrible about it?

Yeah, but what about the Jam Pedals RetroVibe?

Great vid Buddy! Have you tried the 1968 vibe from king tone?

Awsome! How often do you change tour guitar strings ??:)

I have had that one and most of the others, in my quest to find my perfect vibe. I just demoed the Gypsy Vibe but I cannot find anything that compares to my DLS Effects Versa Vibe.

Great video, I have the vintage vibe and the mini bender. Do you recommend putting the mini vibe before or after the vintage vibe?

What Octavia pedal are you using? Great vids, btw. I'm glad I found your channel!

FANTASTIC demo! What's the story with the route behind the trem on that Strat? Was there some sort of Kahler on there or something?

Ok so I really like how you have a sillouette of your head with smoke coming off of it at the beginning of your videos, so that being said your band should be called: The Smoking Logos

What? How about Korg NuVibe?, Thirty Third Street NovaVibe (handmade, 24 volts)? I too had the vibes you mentioned (modded voodoolabs, drybell, fulltone, nux, etc)

Nice, ever compared it to the Sabbaduis? And the Vintage Vibe Deluxe.

It seems this pedal might achieve the sound of, some recordings by Hendrix or Frusciante, such as, Hey baby (New Rising Sun), Angel, Message to love, or Black summer... And the thing is that, a pedal effect, as it happens with a music instrument, should conquer your ear first and your eye later, whereas what actually often happens is, exactly the opposite... Thank you very much, Buddy Blues, this vid has been quite helpful (Tante grazie, ricercherò su questo pedale) (Muchas gracias, Buddy, por tu vídeo, es de suma ayuda)

Love your playing! You absolutely nailed it!

Hi Buddy. Really enjoying the reviews but they all inspire me to improve my tone…sadly, by spending a fortune! Before I take the plunge…again, have you any experience of the Fulltone Custom Shop Mini-Deja Vibe mkII Vibrato/Chorus? Wondered how it compares to this one? Cheers!

Is there any difference between this and the formulab vintage vibe deluxe on sound , except the style of the box? Greetings from Greece!!! New subscriber!!

Have you tried a Shin-Ei Vibe-bro yet? I've been looking at those. This is a lot cheaper though so that gets points!

This is pretty good. I have Full tones, Sweets & Prescriptions.

nice playing

Awesome video! How does it compare to the supro harmonic trem?

I want one, and would have it too … but I just dropped a bunch of cash on a nice sg custom.🤦🏼‍♂️

The Fulltone Deja Vibes are the best and the Electro Harmonix Good Vibes is also fantastic

Have you tried the lovepedal vibronaut photocell? Sounds exactly like this one.

prescription electronics vibe unit or the sweet sound ultra vibe

how could 4 people not like this video???? lol

Hey buddy, just wondering if you have a comparison about this and the sabbadius vibe?

I’m sold. But apparently you can’t buy it on their website. I’ll email them direct

Man alive. Just put an expression input on the thing. How many times…?

The Versa Vibe is killer.

Have you tried the gypsy vibe from pedal pawn ? I haven't got it but I have watched a fair amount of videos and it sounds out of this world.

Cool...and what about Fulltone?

Great demo. What's rhe name of song you play from minute 10:40 to minute 11:00? Thanks

My univibe journey ended when I finally got an original one!

I love your sense of humour! Where are you based... Montreal?
