Description

The RetroVibe by JAM Pedals, specifically the RetroVibe Mk.2 and Mk.3, is a versatile pedal designed to deliver the majestic sounds of the best Uni-Vibe pedals from the past. It is housed in a modern pedalboard-friendly enclosure and features standard 9V DC operation, internally lifted to 15V DC. The pedal is comprised of 4 photocells, a bulb, original NOS 2SC828 transistors, and carbon comp resistors. It offers both Vibrato and Chorus settings, allowing users to navigate from slow-rate wavy sounds to fast Leslie-speaker effects.

The RetroVibe features controls for Depth (effect amount in the dry signal) and Speed (modulation rate), as well as a toggle switch to select Chorus (C) and Vibrato (V) modes. Additionally, an internal trimmer is incorporated to set the maximum intensity of the effect and manipulate the sound while maintaining the pedal’s true vintage character. The pedal also includes an expression pedal input for remote speed control, compatible with the EXP4 expression pedal.

Technical specifications for the RetroVibe Mk.2 and Mk.3 include:
1. True Bypass
2. Works with 9V DC adaptor (tip-negative)
3. Power consumption: 80 mA
4. Dimensions (jacks, pots, etc. included): 12 x 9.5 x 3.4 cm / 4.7 x 3.7 x 1.3 inches
5. Weight: 350g / 0.77 lbs

The RetroVibe Mk.3 also features high-quality components throughout, original NOS 2SC828 transistors, carbon comp resistors, and an internal trimmer for effect intensity. It operates on 9V center-negative power with a 150mA current consumption.

The pedal is endorsed by notable artists such as J Mascis, Andy Timmons, and Ruban Nielson, among others, and is praised for its faithful and musical reproduction of vintage Uni-Vibe tones.
