Citation/mention fame — how often this gear is cited across artist rigs and gear discussion.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 TC Electronic Shaker Mini Vibrato is a compact pitch vibrato pedal offering a broad tonal range, from classic warbly vibrato to rotary-speaker territory, with more functionality than its three-knob size suggests. It controls speed, depth, and rise time to shape everything from gentle, seasick sway at slow rates to Leslie-style swirl and Black Hole Sun-type wobble when pushed faster and deeper. TonePrint technology lets players load artist-designed presets or craft custom vibrato sounds via the app and USB. Its pitch-modulating voice covers mid-70s warble, Beatlesque Leslie tones, Mellotron vibes, and modern bottom-of-the-ocean swirl. It suits players wanting versatile, expressive vibrato for psychedelic, vintage, and ambient styles in a small, pedalboard-friendly enclosure that punches above its compact format.
