Vibrato should be something we are always aware of in our playing. When we become aware, we gain control.*
I was subbing in a dance band yesterday afternoon, playing second part. first and thirds were trading back and forth and the section sound was "weird". I found myself using vibrato unconsciously where i would not normally use it, not only that but i was using finger vibrato which i seldom use. So i stopped it. I agree with the being aware to gain control comment.
