Forum-Vibe Vintage kit

very nice sound , just a little bit volume drop

The Forum vibe kit allows you to build by yourself one of the most sought after effects.
Soldering is quite easy, the PCB is very well designed, but you need to be very patient and consciencious, given the high number of components.
The documentation provided by Classic Amplification lacks of clarity, fortunately Musikding provides a very useful wiring diagram.
The sound is absolutely gorgeous, at least as good as a Fulltone MDV.

My favorite musikding build so far.

I have been building pedals for some time now , always wanted to build a Uni- vibe clone but never found a decent kit until now . Built this over the week end I am so impressed the only thing I did change was the LDRs and bought a real Bulb 1.5v 80ma for vintage pulsing throb sound that is recommended if you build the vintage version you must use the right parts . Great quality PCB fiberglass I think this build will easily impress . I didnt really find it a problem to follow the build Docs. Did my homework before buying learnt a lot . Many thanks Stu.

I ordered this kit and had it sent to the US. The kit got here quickly. Everything in the kit was well organized. I had one question while building the kit and emailed support. I received an answer the same day (thank you very much)! The instructions are very good and the Vibe fired up the first time. I would definitely purchase anything from Das Musikding!

were else can you find this nice of a kit.it sounds great and is a fun build....i learned a lot about the circuit trying to figure out the the documentation.everything you need to build it is there but you have to know where to look.the first link,the one that says forum-vibe project is the one to use.the others are for previous versions.be sure to follow the instructions for the version of the board you have,and make a point of reading about the mods even if you are building the vintage.the mods section has the info about the wiring and also how to set up the photo cells.follow the pictorial drawing for the vintage build and not the schematic or it wont work.r48 and r49 are reversed.i spent more time on research than i did building and desoldering.one thing ive always found is i learn more if things are not as clear as they could be......it fits nicely in the jj sized enclosure,with plenty of room for top jacking.it got here fast to the u.s. with the cheaper shipping....way to go musikding!

This sounds amazing, I’m really delighted. It took a good while to build but totally worth the time & effort. I chose to do the full mods as I assumed they improve on the original design. Plenty of reading up on The Forum Vibe which seemed confusing but it became clear after a while. I managed to squeeze everything into the DD enclosure, including the rotary 3 way Vibe mod (which comes with the extra caps needed - nice touch Musikding) and it looks and sounds great in my pedalboard. Works flawlessly with my Truetone CS12 by the way - very rewarding and I recommend highly but not for the novice unless you are willing to read up a lot! Thanks Musikding & Forum Vibe Project.

This is a great product. I put it together over a couple days and it fired up the first time without issue. The mods are actually quite a bit better than the original vintage design and I recommend them highly. Note - the kit doesnt ship with the modification parts, I had some lying around and had to purchase a few others from a US site. I recommend that you build the voice switch - it is incredibly versatile when playing different guitars. The only thing that bugs me is the speed LED doesnt dim enough in between swells and doesnt seem to be linked to the Intensity knob. Overall, great tone from this unit and this should be on every serious guitarists pedal board.

Cheers,
