Man, that is a cool pedal! Gotta love a pedal that will do so much more than the one thing most of them do well.

 

By the way, do you know what Gilmour used for the intro to "Shine On"? I've wondered if it was a Univibe, some later pedal, or a studio efect/trick.

Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.

Does that use a BBD? If so, how many stages? I have a book from Panasonic on their series of BBD's with example circuits, including chorus/flange/vibrato, but a lot of them don't seem to be available anymore.

 

The other method I've seen is using a CLM6000 optoisolator (LED close-coupled to a photoresistor), but I wouldn't think you'd be able to achieve that deep of a vibrato using that design.

 

Just curious.

clone theory and echoplex is what it sounds like to me, strat on outta phase near the bridge, maybe even with a fuzzface on and the guitar way down.

 

but that's just a guess...who knows how many layers on the studio version. some of the live versions tho, definitely seems to be his rig there.

yah, analog bbd, 1024 stages. it's an 8 pin dip that's alot like the classic sad`1024, but not directly compatible with that 14 or 16 pin chip.

 

you could use an optoisolator, or a simple led/photoresistor circuit and get one hell of a true vibrato...

 

google up magnavibe. it bends the pitch all over the place, and is based on tim escobedo's wobbletron....except it works.

 

vibratto is easy to achieve...take any chorused/flanged/phased or otherwise modulated signal, and cut the dry signal to it...you got vibrato.

 

photo based vibes are killer.... univibe comes to mind, or these days, cheaper, dano chicken salad vibe.
