McCaffrey Audio has announced the release of a new modulation pedal, the Run Rabbit Run Vibe.
The Run Rabbit Run Vibe design emulates all of the classic sounds of the vintage Uni-Vibe pedal but incorporates a new and wide palate of sounds with ease of use for the gigging musician.
From classic rock, to new genres of music, this pedal truly covers a vast sonic territory. The Run Rabbit Run Vibe is equally at home in a rig crafted for vintage tone, a rig designed for modern tones, or anywhere between those two extremes. Designed to augment your current rigs tone, the Run Rabbit Run Vibe is a classic, four stage phaser, chorus and vibrato circuit which produces everything from faint rotating speaker simulation to extreme octave/synth sounds that can be “tuned” to the note that you are playing.
The classic controls of DEPTH (wet signal), SPEED (rate) and a footswitch to select between VIBRATO and CHORUS are just the beginning of this pedal's new and utilitarian design. Added and unique features include the CRAZY (doubles the rate of the modulation) footswitch to go between normal operations to ring mod/octave/synth features. The THUMP (three-way toggle switch) allows you to add low end response when turning down the DEPTH knob.
Adding this feature was the result of listening to feedback from customers and creating a feature unavailable with vibe pedals currently on the market. The SPEED knob was made to be accessible with your foot quickly during live performances with the positioning and oversized knob. The Run Rabbit Run Vibe is made for anyone that wants a highly functional vibe style pedal, in their rig, that is much more than a one-trick pony.
The Run Rabbit Run Vibe is equally suited for squeezing out those lush, warm, vintage vibe tones (think Jimi Hendrix’s “Machine Gun”) as it is at producing the more obscure, but equally pleasing modern tones.
Specs
