  • I've had a couple of Deja Vibes, Sweet Sound Mojo Vibe, and some others. Use a Rotovibe now, an older JH4S. It's 3 pedals to me: vibe, phaser and vibrato. Love it.

  • Is there any significant difference in the Dunlop JD-4 and JH-4 Rotovibes ??? The "JD-4" is for Jim Dunlop and the "JH-4" obviously stands for Jimi Hendrix, which is the reason I bought a Rotovibe when they first came out. But is their any circuitry differences that you know of?
    I was about to pull the trigger and get another Rotovibe, but you changed my mind, and I'm going to get either the blue or the cream Deja Vibe. Yeah, I agree with you on the BS ???????? on the Black Lives Matters issue, he should have have kept his ignorant opinions to himself. That's one of the good things the hippy era was about, creating a utopian society of peace and brotherly love. I guess that we can put a sticker or something over the Fulltone name !!!

  • I cannot understand how or why he's for lack of a better word, "slamming" the rotovibe it seems to me to 'throb' very well, plenty of 'life' not dull by ANY means, also the intensity knob was NEVER demonstrated, if you take the time to work the intensity knob it has more than enough range hi's low's and yes, there's even middle ground with plenty to spare.At one point the youtuber guy backs off pedal because there is too much speed and range for him so it seems quite obvious that he's somewhat biased and not all that genuinely honest about the capabilities of the "Rotovibe" pedal.
    I for one would like congratulate Dunlop on manufacturing a wonderful, unique, and very dynamic piece as far as these types of effects units go. I'm just surprised how frankly, dishonest the reviewer is and I wonder what the motivation for such bias is.
    Respectfully, thanks.

  • I think that if you (knew that there are; I don't think that you even know they are there) tweaked the internal pots on the RotoVibe, you would rate it as the best of the three. The Fulltone is decent, but nothing as lush as the RotoVibe once you dial in the internal pots (there are just two of them, and they are easy to adjust).

  • The best sounding Rotovibe are the early ones JH-4S. You can just leave it on all the time hell down and rocket to accentuate chords. Love it.

  • I told Mike Fuller that Chinese counterfeits of the OCD were being sold on eBay. I thought he should know. I sent him photos and links. He sent me an extremely abusive message and told me to “F+#k off”.

  • I’m sure the Rotovibe was better years ago. Maybe my ears got better because it sounds terrible to me now.

  • BLM as an organization is terrible, they are Marxists, and they are criminals using violence against city's and law abiding citizens. Fuller was 100% right in what he said.

  • I love my rotovibe. Dunlop really should do a truebypass version with a less craptastic buffer stage.

  • i love my Fulltone pedal, now i heard your story about the woke part, i love it even more, not leaving my pedalboard … even more looting going on now, i don't support woke and people wining about everything

  • Don't mind the sound of the Rotovibe…I love Univibes but the more throbby the more you are aware of it as an effect …a more subtle use is less in your face but it can impart a sort of gentle psychedelic swirl to rhythm playing that is less obtrusive and melds into the tune more easily.

    Reply
  • I have all 3 of these pedals, my Deja vibe is an early hand wired version though. All great pedals. I really like the Dunlop roto vibe it has internal trim pots that you can dial in for more throb.

  • Good review. The Deja Vibe is an awesome pedal!
    Fulltone pedals have always been at the top in quality and sound.

    Reply
  • I love the Univibe..In my opinion Jimi Hendrix's best sound was Electric Ladyland..I like the Fulltone the best.. Thank you.
