From the Uni-Vibe to the Nuvibe

From the Uni-Vibe developer

Overseeing the redevelopment of a product from half a century ago,
I was first hit with anxiety and embarrassment. This came from being

designed instruments while also being taken back to my own younger
days.
At the time, I was estranged from the popular music of the day, but I was
thinking we could skillfully cook up a new instrument by combining
countless familiar "sound" ingredients.
For example, the fading of short-wave broadcasts heard at night was

erratically changing Moscow broadcasts finally finding their way to
Japan from so far away felt like nostalgic music. In fact, that is how I
felt about the original Uni-Vibe. However, the challenge of designing
an oscillator that can be significantly adjusted from an extremely slow
cycle to vibrato is still a bitter memory.
This time, young engineers of the same age as me at the time are newly
developing it as the Nuvibe.
Unlike when making a new instrument, the association with an
electronic musical instrument of the past presents a difficulty, and it
is just not as easy as it's generally imagined. Questions, such as how
close it should be to the original (for example, should it also emulate
the shortcomings of the original) and how the original was in the first
place, will emerge.
With original electronic musical instruments of the past, there are, as
with violins, individual differences other than the transformation of
parts with the passage of time. Since it was commonplace for electronic
