Is this a Univibe?

Sounds more like a rotary/leslie effect to me. Check out some videos of the mini vent II and you'll hear it right away.

You could get close with a univibe or foot controlled phaser with subtle settings though.

A flanger could do it really well too

Eh . . . I mean, you could get a kind of pulsing with a flanger but it would be much more metallic sounding and jet engine whooshy. Flanging always seems like it's sitting prominently right on top of the sound of a guitar, where phasing effects kind of blend better to my ears.

definitely a rotary speaker/leslie type thing. i love my h&k rotosphere mk2 but the ventilator is great and still in production

It's all in how you use it. Flangers have a lot of overlap with a lot of modulation effects. If you set the manual and feedback low on a flanger, you'll have neither metal nor whoosh.

99% Leslie in slow mode, it has some 'growl', the Univibe is generally more liquid

Looks like rotary effects are prohibitively expensive for my minimal need, but could consider just getting a Phase 95


Thanks all

Imo most rotary effects are underwhelming if they aren't used in a stereo set up. You're better off going wth a phaser, univibe, or Tremolo that has some phaser magic thrown in.

I own one of these for my Univibe needs, ànd absolutely love it.

theres a few people who use a chorus pedal for rotary effects, ive used a way huge blue hippo with both controls set at around 1pm to get a fast leslie thing going

I have the first generation, and it sounds amazing. The downside is that it needs its own power supply; and it takes up a lot of real estate on your board. It does sound amazing, though I might break it out for our next studio session. If you set it slow and subtle, it has a great lead guitar vibe.

You can find a used Line 6 Roto Machine for about $100 used. Not too large and it sounds great.
Only real drawback is, it weighs a ton for its size.

A cheap slim format option I've used is a $99 Zoom MS-50G with a vibrato and flanger set to the same speed and an amp model for some grit when needed. Can run on battery and is a 'standard' BOSS pedal size.

Petty? It's probably a REAL Leslie.

a vibrato and flanger set to the same speed .

I'm intrigued. That's a great idea.
