Hello all! So bear with me I've never had much experience with univibe pedals before but here we go. So about two months ago i decided i needed a univibe pedal. I wanted to get those creamy hendrixian and trower tones, while incorporating it into my own material (of course). So i did a lot of research (and i mean a lot), and i decided on the Fulltone Deja Vibe 2, now, this isn't the "mini" version in a wah like enclosure, it's the bulkier unit with the IEC power cord you have to plug into it. These units are a little harder to come by for some reason, I know they're discontinued, but still, they seem harder to find than Mikes versions from the 90's. Anyway. I love the look and feel of this unit, It's beautiful, weighty, a gorgeous design, and don't get me wrong while it's a great pedal.. it's not exactly everything I hoped it would be. While the univibe sounds are there it's simply lacking in sorts. I find myself usually keeping the intensity knob all the way up and having to keep the footpedal right about the point it starts firing like a machine gun (no pun intended) But i have gotten use to that little quirk of the footpedal and actually like it how in the toe area it goes from 70-100 in a matter of a little tap, it makes me be more careful of how i adjust it. However, that's not my problem, my problem is the intensity. It simply doesn't show very well. As i said before how i have to get it set before it even starts to become aparant at all that the unit is on. Is there any way i can adjust this unit so it can be a bit more intense? I don't exactly want to mess with the circuitry inside, but i love this pedal and i truly want it to shine. But checking out other video on youtube of the pedal (which for some reason is lacking compared to other models) it DOES NOT sound that good compared to my unit. Sorry if this is confusing this is my first post, and this is something i want to figure out an answer to. Any help would be appericated!
