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. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.35% — somewhat different

The Dunlop Uni-Vibe UV-1 is a reissue of the classic Shin-ei Uni-Vibe optical chorus and vibrato effect, famous for its use by Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock and by Robin Trower throughout his recordings. The UV-1 replicates the original four-stage optical phaser with LFO and photocell circuit for the characteristic liquid, watery chorus sweep. Includes expression pedal input for real-time speed control. Controls include Speed, Intensity, and Chorus/Vibrato mode switch.
The Fulltone Deja Vibe 2 uses four photoresistors and an incandescent light bulb to produce thick, deep chorus and vibrato effects with greater warmth, fuller body, and enhanced presence that cuts through a mix. Modern and Vintage voicing toggles offer different characters, while Vibrato and Chorus switches provide sonic range from subtle warble to fast Leslie-like swirl at all speeds. Three knobs—Volume, Intensity, Speed—plus footswitchable speed control make it practical. An excellent recreation of the vintage UniVibe sound with modern improvements, suitable for Hendrix, Trower, psychedelia, garage, and funk.
