Dr. No announced the DYBBUK "Legba Vibe" on June 1, 2022, as the third and final part of its SORCIÈRE trilogy, according to the maker's product page. The maker describes it as the biggest and most complex part of the project.

The DYBBUK is a vibe effect. Dr. No writes that the effect, "although often associated with Chorus or Phaser, is in fact created by a staggered series of phasing filters, an optical circuitry that uses LDRs (Light Dependent Resistors), and an incandescent lamp in a light screen"¹. The maker adds that "Only the authentic Vibro-Chorus effects have a real filament light bulb and LDRs (Light Dependent Resistor), as does the DYBBUK 'Legba Vibe'"¹. Dr. No states it focuses on analog effects exclusively and that the DYBBUK is no exception¹.

The DYBBUK will be built by hand in a limited edition of 250 pieces, released in series of 50 at a time, with the first series of 50 available for pre-sale¹. 00¹. It states that only 666 copies will be made in total, 222 of each SORCIÈRE part, and that orders come with a limited edition SORCIÈRE T-shirt, with the size entered during the order process¹.

The trilogy began in 2019 with the NECROFUZZICON, a fuzz shaped like a book and inspired by the NECRONOMICON, or Book of the Dead¹. The second part, the DJINN, was made with Alain Johannes; the maker says the first and only version of it was built into a bass guitar by Tom Pugi of T.P. Customs London¹. The DJINN uses a 9v regular power supply and has a built in noise filter, and the maker states that in total only 350 will be handmade¹.
