What is the difference between a tremolo and vibrato pedal?

A tremolo modulates volume, a vibrato modulates pitch. Unfortunately, Leo Fender got them the wrong way round which is why we have a ‘tremolo arm’ in guitars (which creates vibrato) and ‘vibrato’ in Fender amps (which is actually a tremolo)!

What type of guitar player needs a vibrato pedal?

Vibrato pedals are particularly popular among indie and alternative players who enjoy the wobbly, imperfect sounds that they can create.

How do vibrato pedals work?

Vibrato pedals modulate the pitch above and below the actual note. You can control how fast the modulation is and how far out of tune it goes!

Where does a vibrato pedal go in the chain?

Vibrato pedals are most commonly placed after overdrive pedals but before reverbs and delays.

Do you put univibe before or after drives?

Usually Univibe is used before a drive pedal to give a big, full sound. Though it is personal preference so experimenting with the order can give the perfect sound for your use.

What artists use a univibe pedal?

There is a range of artists who use and have used univibe pedals, such as Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, Dave Grohl, Mike Mccready, Robin Trower and John Mayer.

Is univibe the same as vibrato?

No. Univibe is different to vibrato as univibe is a phaser effect that creates a swishing, phase modulation while vibrato is a pitch modulation effect that raises and lowers the pitch of a note.
