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.56% — moderately similar

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 JAM Pedals RetroVibe is a uni-vibe style vibrato and chorus pedal from Greek boutique manufacturer JAM Pedals (Athens, Greece), delivering the watery, pulsing chorus and vibrato of vintage Uni-Vibe circuits using an optical LFO and photoresistor circuit. The RetroVibe captures the rotary speaker emulation character of the original Univox Uni-Vibe for Jimi Hendrix-style and David Gilmour-style uni-vibe tones at JAM Pedals handmade Greek boutique quality.
