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.38% — somewhat different

Citation/mention fame — how often this gear is cited across artist rigs and gear discussion.The JHS Unicorn V2 is an all-analog, photocell-based UniVibe pedal with tap tempo, offering the rotating-speaker character of the classic Uni-Vibe with modern conveniences. It is among the first fully analog photocell vibe pedals to include tap tempo as standard. Controls include Volume, Speed, Depth, and a Ratio control for tap-tempo subdivisions, plus a Vibrato/Chorus switch. Compatible with optional external tap control and expression pedal for rate control. Made in Kansas City, Missouri.
The Smokin' Amp Co. Tri-Vibe is a boutique-built version of the True Vibrato circuit originally documented by RunoffGroove, a respected source within the DIY pedal-building community. It delivers Uni-Vibe-style swirling modulation with a genuine vibrato mode (pitch modulation) alongside chorus-like textures, offering players a professionally-built alternative to assembling the circuit themselves.
