KEY FEATURES:
Iconic Uni-Vibe Sound: The Dunlop Uni-Vibe Stereo Chorus replicates the famous warbly, swirling effect that defined the sound of many classic rock and psychedelic albums. It combines both chorus and vibrato effects, offering versatile modulation sounds.

Speed, Depth, and Level Controls: The Uni-Vibe offers simple but effective controls to shape your tone. The Speedknob adjusts the rate of modulation, the Depth knob controls the intensity of the effect, and the Level knob sets the overall output level.

Rich, Swirling Modulation: The Uni-Vibe Stereo Chorus delivers lush, multi-dimensional chorus effects, ranging from slow, deep sweeps to faster, more tremolo-like sounds. The chorus effect is reminiscent of phasing but with a unique, organic texture that sets it apart from other modulation pedals.
Vibrato Mode: In addition to the chorus effect, the Uni-Vibe offers a vibrato mode that creates a detuned, pitch-shifting modulation, adding another layer of versatility to the pedal’s sound.
