Similarity
citedBlended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The Anarchy Audio Flutterby is a vintage-styled optical tremolo handwired in Perth, Western Australia. Three selectable waveforms cover Square (choppy stutter), Triangle (smooth sine-wave motion), and Asymmetrical (a wave that ramps up to a chop). Controls include Level (output volume), Mix (dry-wet blend or clean boost), and Rate (tremolo speed). An expression input controls tremolo rate hands-free. Top-mounted jacks for pedalboard-friendly cabling. True bypass, 9V DC under 20mA, 66 x 122mm enclosure. No battery option.

The Universal Audio UAFX Flow is a compact vintage tremolo pedal that emulates classic tube-powered amp tremolo, delivering the woozy, pulsing sound of vintage Fender amps with impressive fidelity. It offers three modes: 65, modeling the optical tremolo of mid-1960s amps like the Deluxe and Twin Reverb; Square, a harder-edged choppier waveform; and Dharma, a harmonic tremolo voiced after late-1950s and early-1960s Fender amps. Its range spans gently pulsing throb to machine-gun chop, and the harmonic mode adds a lush, phasey movement many players find unexpectedly rewarding. Simple to use yet richly authentic, it is an affordable, great-sounding choice for blues, surf, indie, country and vintage-flavored tones in a small true-bypass enclosure.
