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 Anasounds Spinner is an expression control pedal designed to control the tremolo rate of Anasounds tremolo pedals including the Ages and Sliver. A rotating spinner wheel mounted on the enclosure top converts spin speed into expression signal via magnets and a sensor beneath the wheel. Kicking the spinner starts rotation at a preset speed; stopping it returns the tremolo to its programmed rate. Three internal trimpots adjust the speed threshold, acceleration, and deceleration rate. Reviewed in Guitar World alongside the Ages and Sliver. Available in assembled and kit versions. Compatible only with Anasounds expression-input tremolo pedals.

The Boffin FX Vibratron is an analog vibrato and tremolo pedal offering a range of pulsing and pitch-modulating effects from slow, violin-like warble to fast rhythmic tremolo chop. Controls include Rate for speed and Depth for intensity. Features true bypass and a red LED indicator for effect-on status. Powered by a standard 9V DC, 2.1mm center-negative supply. Suited to vintage rock, surf, country, and atmospheric indie styles where organic modulation is preferred.
