Harmonic Tremolo?

Anyone heard of this effect? A buddy pointed me to a pedal that has this effect, sounded pretty neat. Is there something on the Kemper that sorta gets this sound?

That was originally a special kind of Tremolo in various Fender Brownface Amps (Vibrasonic, Super, Bandmaster, and more) and also the old Magnatones, if I recall correctly.

There are many pedals which try to recreate that kind of trem, but unfortunately the Kemper doesn't have one. I use a Source Audio Vertigo, which serves me well for all kinds of tremolo (not only harmonic). It sounds exactely like my old 62 Brownface Deluxe.

I wish Kemper would give the tremolo FX a bit more love. It's the only FX on the Kemper I feel is not up to todays standards.
