Frequently Asked Questions

The Custom mode leans towards a more subtle, almost chorus-like vibrato, with a smoother feel and wider tonal palette than the classic VB-2’s characteristic warble.
No, the expression pedal only controls the Rate parameter, offering a simple and direct way to modulate the vibrato speed.
True bypass means your signal passes unaffected when the pedal is disengaged; however, any slight noise floor inherent in analog circuits might still be subtly present in a very quiet recording environment.
