VibratoDepth
Thisalgorithmshiftsthepitchofthesoundupanddowntocreateavibratoeffect.Itcangofrom
reallysubtletoextremewidevibrato.Ithas2operationmodes:
 Standard:staticvibratoeffect.
 Dynamic:intensity(depth)ofthevibratoissurpressedassignallevelishigh,andthencomes
backupwhensignallevelceases.Thisisaverypowerfulmode,asitallowsyoutoapplydeep
vibratoonlyonthetailsofaphrase,leavingthemainpartofthephrasemuchlessaffected.

WehavealsoaddedtheRiseTimeparameter,similartothatofthevintageBossVB‐2pedal.This
parametercontrolsthetimeittakesforthevibratotoreachfullintensitywhenthealgorithmis
activated,insomescenariograduallyintensifyingvibratogivesamorenaturalresult.
