This
great-looking, phenomenal-sounding pedal takes the original
swirling
vibe sound and gives it an extra
bite – with more voltage hurling your sound around
the room. Spinning, whirling, shimmering and pulsating,
this box is destined to join our other award-winning pedals
as a modern classic – delivering sounds from the golden
age of rock & roll to the twenty-first century.
Viper
gives you a range of cool, modulated 70s sounds – all
enhanced with a T-Rex bite. You’ll recognize the
vibe effect at once, and it’s easy to dial in everything
from “Little Wing” to “Bridge of Sighs”.
Unlike
the seventies-sounding phase shifter or the chorus effect
of the eighties,
the sound
of a vibe never goes
out of style. It moves in a subtler way – as classic
tracks from Hendrix and generations of his musical descendents
bear witness. Use Viper to make your guitar stand out
with a dynamic, vivid sound that will leave audiences
calling for more.
Viper gives you just the control you need for the perfect
sound on every tune while keeping it simple. The main
controls are Depth, Speed and overall Level, while a Mode
button takes you from the rotating speaker to a vibrato
effect. A trimmer control on the underside of the pedal
lets you tune the phase and intensity of your vibe.
The main controls on the Viper pedal are the DEPTH, SPEED
and LEVEL knobs, while the MODE button lets you select
the basic character of your vibe.
DEPTH controls the overall strength of the vibe effect.
Start with a lower setting for a nice, subtle effect,
and turn it up to send your sound whirling around the
room.
The
SPEED knob lets you adjust how fast or slow your sound
modulates – no matter what the depth, or what
mode you’re in.
LEVEL lets you adjust the overall output of your Viper
pedal.
Use
the MODE button to switch between the two classic vibe
modes – a
rotating speaker effect and a subtler vibrato sound.
The
TRIM dial on the back of the unit (accessible using
a flat-head screwdriver)
lets
you shape the intensity
and character of your vibe sound. Experiment to get just
the vibe you’re looking for.
