The UniVibe is famous from Jimis use of it. The LFO is a phase shift oscillator, with the dual 250K pots
in the pedal assembly to control speed. A modern version would substitute an LED/photocell optocoupler for the
four LDRs and the incandescent light bulb that makes the shifting work. This IS just a four stage phaser, perhaps
with some distortion from the signal path thrown in.

Since the Univibe (r) is being reissued by Dunlop, Dunlop probably owns the "Univibe" trademark these days.
This schematic bears no resemblance, except accidental, to the reissue that Dunlop or anyone else may be making.
