Hi guys, I just got my hands on a Voodoo Vibe. It sounds so nice and deep, it makes my guitar goes 3D, like the new movies Very Happy

Just wanted to ask some help in tweaking the knobs and get a good starting point or simply ask which particular setting you guys use the most and why, so to have a general idea.

I really love the trem mode, I suppose only because I'm pretty used to that kind of effect even though a proper vibe sound is probably better in chorus mode?!

Thanks in advance

Cool setting man! They're pretty slow and in the second one you can't really tell if the vibe is on, really great! I prefer faster settings tough, at least I tend to use faster ones.
Just a little question about the third setting: am I wrong or it's almost an on\off type of sound? I mean it's like you're swelling with your volume?

The Trem setting I go from the middle position to the 3rd position on the classic side according to the song. It's a little swell/choppy effect. Like a good tremolo should be. lol

The Vibrato setting's intensity varies from 9:30 to 10:30. It's perfect for that subtle always on effect.

Now I've had it for a little while and the settings I seem to like best is:

Chorus Mode:
Rate - Classic middle position
Speed - varying
Intensity - 1-3 o'clock
Symmetry - 12 o'clock
Bias - 12 o'clock
Output - 3 o'clock

Vib Mode:
Rate - Classic middle position
Speed - varying
Intensity - 1-3 o'clock
Symmetry - 12 o'clock
Bias - 12 o'clock
Output - 3 o'clock

Trem Mode:
Rate - Classic fast position
Speed - varying
Intensity - 12 o'clock
Symmetry - 12 o'clock
Bias - full
Output - 3 o'clock

These are the most useable effects, but toying around with the symmetry, Bias and modern rate modes i can get som really nice none ordinary tones too.
