The Voodoo Vibe is Roger Mayers latest evolution of the famous Uni-vibe guitar effects unit as used by Jimi and Robin Trower.The Uni-Vibe was originally designed for electronic keyboards to replicate the rotary speaker effect of a Leslie unit and made in the late 60's in Japan by Shin-ei. The units best-known user was of course Jimi who used the Uni-Vibe at Woodstock and it's underwater sound is identified on such tracks as 'Machine Gun'. The Supervibe was the next evolution and this rack-mounted unit and incorporated the modifications that I had developed for Jimi plus some further updates. The Supervibe's enthusiasts have included Stevie Ray Vaughan and Robin Trower. The Voodoo-Vibe goes much further in expanding the basic good filter sound of the original but with a host of new features that make the Voodoo-Vibe today's choice of player such as Page and Clapton. These new features and of course the fact that the unit includes a TREMOLO function together with the usual Chorus and Vibrato.
