Harmonic tremolo is one of the rarest and most interesting effects, allowing you to make your sound highly personal.
It brings a much livelier motion than a tremolo, it doesn’t have the outdated stigma of the chorus,
and it takes up less space than a delay or reverb.
Whether you’re looking to give your arpeggios a hypnotic edge or to add some thickness to your melodic lines,
the Ages brings you a new take on modulation.

historic but misunderstood

Harmonic tremolo lives under many names:
vibrato, harmonic vibrato, harmonic tremolo, vibe, univibe, and so on.
In every instance, the goal remains the same, i.e. to change the pitch of your notes in a cyclic way
(rather than changing the volume like a regular tremolo)
while putting the lows and highs out of phase.
That separation between frequencies evokes the Leslie cabinet, and it’s not just by coincidence:
the first harmonic tremolos, including the Univibe
and the built-in vibratos from old Magnatone amps,
have been designed to emulate the Leslie.
But those newer references have of course become sought-after effects in their own right,
and a few makers have designed their own version since then.
