Blended 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.

The Crazy Tube Circuits Memphis is a vibrato pedal inspired by vintage vibrato circuits, delivering pure pitch modulation effects distinct from chorus. Controls include Rate and Depth for adjusting the vibrato speed and intensity. Made in Greece by Crazy Tube Circuits as part of their boutique modulation lineup alongside the Cyclone phaser and Echotopia delay. The Memphis delivers pure vibrato pitch modulation without amplitude modulation blending, suited for vintage blues, psych, and classic rock players who want true pitch vibrato effects.
The Origin Effects Magma57 Vibrato Drive is a stompbox recreation of the pitch-vibrato-equipped Magnatone combo amplifiers from the late 1950s, built on the same amp-modeling analog circuitry as Origin's RevivalDRIVE platform but focused specifically on that one amp's signature onboard effect. Output, Tone, and Drive controls cover a wide range from clean jazz tones through big, smooth cleans to authentic old-school overdrive character, while Intensity and Speed controls with three-way switches shape the pitch-shifting vibrato itself. A post-drive EQ section tailors the output for Plexi-style, Blackface-style, or full-range flat-response amp setups. It's aimed at players wanting genuinely lower-gain, characterful vintage tones with Magnatone's distinctive true pitch vibrato rather than ordinary tremolo.
