J. Rockett Audio Designs released the Uni-Verb, a pedal combining a Uni-Vibe style analog chorus and vibrato with a spring reverb, in July 2022. Guitar World reported it available now for $449 street¹; MusicRadar gave the price as $529², and the maker's own product page lists $224.99³.

The maker describes the Uni-Verb as "a painstakingly accurate photocell analog vibe based on of the original Univibe pedal with an added spring reverb"³. It runs internally at 24V from a standard negative-tip 9V supply via a charge pump, where the classic version ran at 24V from a fixed power cable³. The maker warns that powering it with anything other than a negative-tip 5.5/2.1mm 9V supply will damage the pedal and void the warranty, and that no battery is available³.

A footswitch replaces the original's rocker switch for selecting vibe or chorus³. The maker says a loop is built in so the vibe can sit first in the chain and the reverb last³. MusicRadar's review lists three footswitches: bypass, vibrato/chorus, and reverb on/off, plus an internal trim pot for tuning the response⁴.

The maker gives dimensions of 4.75 by 5.25 by 1.25 inches, 2.25 inches to the top of the knob, and a weight of 2 lbs³. MusicRadar lists true bypass, standard input, output, send and return, and 9V DC adaptor power, not supplied⁴.

The maker's page listed the pedal as out of stock at the time of writing³.
