Viscous Vibe
Where Technology and Tone Meet
The original Shin-Ei Uni-Vibe* is a highly unique,
complex and gorgeous-sounding analog unit –
so when we set out to recreate it digitally, we
knew it would not be easy.
Through untold hours of meticulous side-by-
side testing with the real thing and by pushing
TC Electronic’s powerful DSPs to their very lim-
its, we have been able to recreate this legendary
effect to a tee. You will get all the lush, syrupy
vibe tones heard on many tracks by Pink Floyd,
Robin Trower and Jimi Hendrix – the best of both
worlds in a pedal that perfectly combines old
analog warmth with modern-day functionality. It
is the perfect pedal for everybody who wants to
implement classic rock tones into their contem-
porary setup.
True Bypass
Here at TC, we have a simple philosophy: When
you are using one of our products, you should
hear something great – and if you don’t, you
shouldn’t hear it at all. This is why this pedal
sports
True Bypass
. When it is bypassed, it is
really off and has zero influence on your tone, re-
sulting in optimum clarity and zero loss of high-
end.
You will also be delighted to hear
(literally)
that
this TC Electronic effect pedal will let your dry,
unprocessed sound pass without ever convert-
ing it to digital – keeping your original tone pure
and without any latency. This feature is called
analog dry-through
.
Sometimes, it is advisable to switch an effect
pedal from True Bypass to Buffered Bypass
mode. For more information, see “Switching
the pedal from true bypass to buffered bypass
mode”.
