Frequently Asked Questions
It utilizes a fully analogue LFO and an internal voltage amplifier, emulating the pitch-shifting characteristics of a vintage tube amplifier's vibrato circuit – much warmer and less predictable than digital algorithms.
While usable, the 'All Wet' mode can occasionally create a slight phase cancellation with certain effects, so experimentation is key to finding a cohesive sound.
The preamp provides a subtle warmth and slight compression, adding a touch of vintage character even when bypassed, but it’s relatively transparent and won't drastically alter your core tone.
