DryBell Vibe Machine V-3 [Vintage Uni-Vibe Tones with Modern Control] (Drybell)

The Vibe Machine V-3 is a top-quality Uni-Vibe type pedal. The analog signal path is designed with discrete transistors just like the classic Uni-Vibe, but made with miniature electronic SMD technology.

The compact size makes it perfect for small pedalboards.

The Vibe Machine V-3 is one of the world's smallest, greatest-sounding vibe pedals, with all the features of the original Uni-Vibe, but with the same extensive custom sound options as the V-2, developed based on our experience with the V-1.

Inspire your creativity with warm, swirling, and hypnotic textures. Feel the past come alive. Reminiscent of the rich, organic sound of the original Uni-Vibe unit.


■Plug and Play

Instantly achieve classic tones that blend smoothly with the main tone EQ, or dig deeper with customizable modulation settings.

Not only was it made with the working musician in mind, but its space-efficient design and rugged construction make it a perfect fit on any pedalboard, whether on stage, in the studio or at home.


■ Modern versatility

Expressive control with expression pedal compatibility, optional footswitch, "cancel" or true bypass, tap tempo, Fast/Slow or Leslie Ramp modes. Optional tone control allows for seamless pairing with specific fuzz/drive styles.



Experience the legendary swirl of Uni-Vibe. The Vibe Machine V-3 delivers authentic tone for every player, from vintage enthusiasts to modern explorers. It offers exceptional sound, unparalleled versatility, and a pedalboard-friendly size.



●Main control is easier than ever

Easily create the perfect sound for your performance or rig.


・Speed

Adjust the speed of the vibrator's movement, from a slow swirl to a fast tremble.


Intensity

Control the depth of the effect, from shimmering accents to hypnotic swells.


・Chorus/Vibrato Switch

Classic Uni-Vibe chorus for modulation, vibrato for pitch bend.


・Original/Bright/Custom Switch

Input impedance selection: Original for warm, classic tones, Bright for modern sparkle, and Custom mode for everything in between.



●Optional tone control: adapts to specific gear

While the variety of rigs and pedalboard setups we use is endless, the optional side controls (trimmers) allow you to fine-tune the overall tone of the Vibe Machine V-3 to suit your specific setup. These controls are useful when pairing the V-3 with impedance-sensitive pedals, such as certain fuzzes (although this may not be true for all fuzz pedals). They are designed as "set it and forget it" options, allowing the Vibe Machine V-3 to seamlessly adapt to your existing rig and other pedals.


Most users won't need to adjust their trimmers, but you can if you want. All side trimmers are factory set to work perfectly right out of the box, so there's nothing to adjust when you start playing - just plug it in and enjoy.

■Power supply

You can use a DC9V adapter (center negative, sold separately).

Power consumption varies depending on the intensity setting. With the Intensity pot set to about 1 o'clock, the average current draw is about 130mA. The maximum peak current is 165mA when the pedal is started.

The pedal will not function properly if the voltage at the DC connector is lower than 8.91V. The maximum recommended continuous voltage for the DC power input is 16V.

The maximum allowable short-term voltage is 25V. If you use higher voltages within the recommended range (up to 16V), the Vibe Machine V-3 will generate more heat; this is normal. The different voltages will not affect the tone or headroom of the pedal.

The Vibe Machine V-3 has internal protection against reverse power polarity and electrostatic discharge, and the V-3 pedal also has a built-in power check.
Please refer to the option manual for details.
