What are some of your favourite guitar pedals on your board? Share below!
Bosss DS-1 😎
I love my UAFX Ruby. Best pedal purchase I’ve ever made.
I bought a Front Line OD in a Cambridge pawn shop in 1986 and it’s only pedal I’ve used ever since. Jackson model 6, OD to Marshall.
Sansamp bass DI
@@gabet3754I love the DS-1! Gary Moore tone!
I like that this gives new life and versatility to traditional amps for live use, but gives me the consistency of tone that’s hard to get mic’ing a cab. This box adds value to things we already have. I dig it.
Agreed 100%!
First of all, I love this piece of gear. I'm getting one asap.
Secondly, I loved seeing Warren in producer mode. I don't think he meant to, but all that experience just comes flowing out of him. Making quick, definitive decisions about which mic he liked better, the comment about the room mics "I like the dampening but think the extra low end will muddy up our dry signal." All of that was coming from a total pro producer mindset thinking about how each element affects the others and how they'll all sit together for an end product. Very very cool to watch.
Thirdly, I've watched a lot of the Produce Like A Pro videos for mixing and recording tips, but I don't think I've seen Warren play guitar. You rip dude! Awesome playing, and a beautiful Les Paul to boot!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video!
Great video! So many cool, well thought out features. I like that you used the old 11Rack to showcase it. A lot of these "old" units have pretty decent amp modelling but it's the cab section that is really lacky because of the very limited cpu power. This would be an upgrade for so many of them.
Sounds amazing. great job universal Audio and thanks for the demo guys.
Thanks ever so much! I really enjoy doing Pedal demos!
The UI on this with the multiple mic stacking/panning and room mic abilities just blew my damn mind! Well done! Would love to hear what clean channel scenarios would sound like on this though.
Yes, very clear and easy to understand
Already love my OX Box. But this pedal would be so travel friendly. Thanks for the video review. Great tones!
Thanks for watching!
Man alive that sounds tasty. I still have an Eleven Rack and recently got a Two Notes Torpedo C.A.B. M+ pedal. It sounds good but the UA OX stomp looks amazing. There's gonna be some more competition in this line of products very soon. Hopefully when new / more cab's are captured we can download them and load that up into your pedal. The future looks good for these pedals. Thanks very much for the great review and video
Yes! Rescues an Eleven Rack!!
Your guitar chops are awesome ❤
You’re very kind!!
I know the old heads will moan and groan about digital till the end of time but I can’t help being excited about how far we’ve come. This is making so much tone accessible for such a low price. Not to mention the amount of pressure relived on our backs 😭. I can’t wait to see where we are in another 15 years!
Ha! Our backs! We're all for it too! Nothing will beat a real amp, except when it does.
In 15 years you will be able to have a conversation with your pedal and ask it to alter the tone based on your voice commands and it will instantly create that sound for you.
Well you still need to hear it through something. If you gig out you're still needing to buy some kind of FRFR speaker for monitoring or putting out into the room. And the nice options for those are often very expensive. You can buy studio monitors, but those don't exactly fill a room. Now my back and my wallet are feeling it.
Precisely what I've been aching for, for years!
@@Joe-mz6dcyou won't even have to play.
nice unit, sounds great, thanks Warren for show casing it.
Thanks you! Was a lot of fun and really breathed life into guitar rack mount unit
Looks cool. It's interesting to see the battle between capture vs component level modeling technologies. Kind of like how we consume visual media these days. It's either on the biggest TV you ever saw or the smallest phone. Nothing in the middle!
Great review, I figured you’d be the guy to go right for the goods - (didn’t know you had those great guitar chops!!). Thank you for sharing your talents, always appreciate your honesty and straight forward approach.
Aw shucks! Thanks ever so much!
Awesome video. Thank you, Rob and Warren. The OX Stomp sounds fantastic. The feature to be able to use and blend two amps simultaneously is amazing. I guess using the OX Stomp for it eliminates a lot of the risk of getting phase issues. I'll definitely check it out and compare it to my CAB M. I would love to see the "CMS" Cab Room Mic Physical Modeling technology available as a UAD plugin, so I can use it within the console of my Apollo interfaces. It would be fantastic if something like that is in the backlog
Thanks ever so much Marc!
Will we be seeing you at Studioszene?
This tech in a plugin format would be huge!
Sweet demo!
I'm putting the stompbox on my list...
Marvellous
Love to see the Eleven Rack here. I still have one (my third...not selling this one) and while I don't use it much it really does still hold up today, especially with modern cabinets! I have an Ox Box and might have to try the internal line input with the 11R.
Marvellous! Thanks for sharing!
The widespread concern is about the absence of MIDI utility - add that functionality, and everyone would want one.
True !
That was a huge oversight.
Another great stuff by UA!
Glad you think so!
Best video so far of the ox stomp 👍
Love that OX cab sim tech is now so portable!
Yes! Amazing!
I have an Ox Stomp arriving mañana and I can’t wait to link it up with my new Lion ‘68! Mega thanx for this vid!!! 🤜💥🤛
Bought the UAD MAX and love how easy it is to dialin a great tone
That’s wonderful to hear
Cool stomp! Sounds like the ox! 🤘🏻
Great playing! Im suprised. And a great tone of course
Haha thanks! I’m originally a guitar player after all
That's KILLER and a lovely price point!
Agreed!
That Les Paul's got that LP thing - really sings on high note bends 👍 Nice playing by Warren. Great box - got one on order
Seems like every day things just keep getting better for guitar players. It’s hard for me to leave the house on my days off. We just have so much to play with! 😊
Haha I hear you 100%!
I desperately wish it had power amp simulation. I love my Torpedo CAB M+ but I’ve always wanted it to have foot switches, and to my ear this Ox sounds even better than DynIR.
Would really love one of those! 😍😍😍
Me too!
This thing sounds fantastic.
It does doesn’t it!
I’m gettin one! I have the dream ‘65 and the Ruby peddles from UA and they are amazing.
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
What's the point of getting this if you already have a dream 65? I have one and connect it to walrus canvas and to the UAD Volt interface. I don't if I could have any use for this. Hmmmm.
21 more cab models 1176 compressor delay verb eq - with dream and Ruby that makes for a Swiss knife in the studio
I am trying to figure out the added value of this pedal. Next to my Dream 65 I have a Vahlbruch compressor pedal and ARP87 Delay. C/Would the Ox Stomp replace these pedals?
So they modelled the speaker and cabinet behaviour instead of using a static IR, and it makes a big difference, similar to how the sound of a real cabinet impacts the sound. That's a hint for amp modellers to perhaps focus more on cab dynamics. I like the sound of the UAFX pedal range but as a player regret the lack of expression or midi input. This one actually makes sense as an end of chain studio tool.
Thanks ever so much for sharing
Sounding good Warren :)
Thanks ever so much!
I need this thing for the next record !!!
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
Damn! Now I think I have GAS! Warren, your guitar playing always amazes and you make this sound essential, even for modellers.
And a request from a fellow Hampshire boy... Have you considered doing a few guitar lessons? Some of the stuff you've touched upon here is really great and well worth learning. I mean that diminished run...! Awesome.
Haha thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I had a lot of fun!
Great video! what is the source of the signal for the ox stomp? sounds great! ruby or tonex?
Can I take the line out of my Two Notes Captor 8 and run it into the OX stomp into my audio interface? Using the Captor just as a load box for my tube amp and OX for speaker IRs.
I swear it’s like UAD doesn’t make plugins anymore. Kinda silly that this (and frankly loads more of their Apollo vsts) aren’t available in our daws.
My OXBOX changed my life in the studio!
My Marshall JMP-1 has been sitting idle in the rack for so many years. Guess I can start using it again as a recording amp again without breaking the bank or my neighbors.
Very cool indeed!
Would be nice to have an upgraded OX Interface/Firmware.
As a non-Ox owner I can see how you might have a good point there.
Yes
Sounds good!
Thanks ever so much!
Oh I need one to go w my revival drive
Marvellous
You couldn’t have come out with this when I had my line 6 hd500x with crappy cabs ?? Take my money
Exactly! The difference is HUGE!
UA should finally, finally put those algos in a native Plugin... this might be nice for live with a Pedal + Preamp, but for ANY recording situation this belongs into your VST slot on the DAW and nowhere else. We don´t need dongles, UA.
Also when was the last update for the OX, 4 years ago?? how long until it´s a doorstop?
Yep I want that update even if it just says hi
Are the mics dynamically modeled, or just the speakers and cabs?
So you can run two amps (with load boxes) into the pedal at once and get a stereo signal. Can you run stereo effects into amp A/amp B (with load boxes), then into the Ox Pedal to maintain the stereo signal (without combining the signals into mono and then separating them into stereo like the Strymon Volante does)? If so, that's impressive.
That's what I am wondering.
How did I miss this release by three days
They keep getting so close. For me, the fact that this doesnt have midi or a headphone out is such a bummer... but I may still get one because it does sound great.
Yes Please! 👏🏽👏🏽
Marvellous
I would like to know what the function of tonex was, just supplying the amplifier heads?
Can I use an Ox Stomp to connect a stomp pedal directly to an audio interface without using an amp simulator or bypassing the amp?
Can I get a technical reason for the post signal capture OX modeling to be a separate product with the functionality withheld from their interfaces? DSP hog?
The pedal is nice. It could complement the OX Box!!!
Marvellous
I use the Strymon Iridium for amp/speaker modeling
Same here. I love it. I just wish it had an fx loop.
You don't necessarily need and FX Loop for that. Since it's a pedal, just put your wet FX AFTER the Iridium in your pedal chain. @@jimyoung9262
I thought that i had enough with all the stomps n digital modeler, enough for me to just quit, just simply ignored it right???... But Now this happened... 😮😮😮😮.. Goosh😅 Too Damn Good!!!
Very Honestly I'm not very much a fan all these tones but the original OX-box seems to be hugely underrated. It's expensive but I'd challange anyone to get as good as some tones that those cabinets and multiple mics setups in those rooms. It's rare for me to like amp head-sims. There's some magic and depth of real tubes in real heads. The OX-box takes that magic and carries it through with no compromise and is even an improvement of so many cabinets and rooms and mic setups of so many studios.
So very honestly, this stomp isn't it for me, but I very happily hype the original OX-box. While at it the UAD Waterfal B3 is killer, certainly with the u67s at the horns of the overdriven leslie.
I agree I love the tube preamp sound more than anything. I think Ox plus Synergy is going to be a killer setup.
What were you monitoring through - studio speakers ? Which ones?
Hmm good question! Maybe the Focal’s? Sounded great
I have never succeeded to get a satisfying tone with IRs. I always come back to micing my cabs. Maybe this product will make me reconsider digital modeling for this application. Too bad it is on the expensive side and without a dedicated headphone output which would make a lot of sense on such a product.
I believe much like Ruby or Dream you can use a stereo y to headphone but better confirm that
Could you do more Bass gear stuff ????? Especially 5 strings, I haven’t found one I like compared to a 4 string.
Marvelous idea! Stay tuned!
Is it intended only for preamp pedals? Or can it be used with tube amplifiers?
If the tube amp had a line out, then yes!
Sounds pretty good
Marvellous! Thanks
I want one!
Me too! This wasn’t paid and I didn’t get one for free!!! Haha
How does this compare to Celestions DSR and what Bogren does?
Awesome!!!
Thanks ever so much
Gosh, you're a great guitar player too!!!
You’re very kind!
@Producelikeapro No, YOU are very good!!! 😜 Thanks for your wonderful videos!!!
After buying Impulse Responses and Amp simulations people going to find their favorites and going to buy the physical real one in the end for enjoyment.
I like that idea! Well said
@@Producelikeapro and keeping the pedal for easy recording
@@serkanonfyes, indeed
True. I sold of my modeling stuff. I like my Mesa MkIII, a Fender Twin reverb and Friedman small box. I use the Torpedo captor X and can go direct to the board. I have a pair of evm12L 300w in 2 ported Friedman cabs, Mesa c90 open back and trucker style cab with D120 clones and a pair of celestion cream back 65s 🤘🏻 no firmware updates and loving the amp/cab/guitar relationship 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻torpedo let’s me use studio headphones for night jams when the wife is asleep lol
sounds killer.
Thanks ever so much!
I’m not buying a UA pedal until they put them all together in a multi box. This comes close. I’ve had and love OX since it was released. UA emulations are amazing. I’d pay $2k for a Helix or Fractal style UA board with all their effects and 100 presets.
definitely, UA could make the QC obsolete if they just get their acts together and create what we all want, all the Algos of UA pedal and some additional OD/DS pedals in an all in one unit. Even if it’s 2 grand, Ill cop one out!
Yes !! This and the OX Plugin pls!
The UA hardware combination with plug-in tech is what really makes it superior and effective at modeling real devices. A plug-in alone doesn’t really do real world stuff better than 80-90%. Much less for real tube circuits.
Is it true that ox has disconnection problems? That's what I heard
If I use dream 65 and this one, still need a DI to PA system?
Will this just work for guitar players or can bass players get in on the action?
I se no reason not to Plug a bass in and use it!
Good things become great.
Yes indeed!
Aaargh. You just strum and noodle and it sounds great! So jealous...
Haha you’re too kind
some of my favorite pedals: lovepedal eternity kanji, strymon el capstan, z-vex super hard on, jhs milkman, and soon to be the uad ox box pedal once I win this giveaway ;-)
I hope they update the Ox Box now, it hasn't been updated in years
Agreed it deserves a little love even just add the flanger to show they care as it’s been a while … still can’t live with out it
So, you're saying that I can plug my guitar into a UA Dream '65 Reverb Amp Pedal, then into your new UA OX Stomp Dynamic Speaker Emulator Stereo Pedal, then into the PA system. Back's around the world will love you😁
Did Warren scoop UA on the release?
Haha oops!!
MXR Dist+ for a win ! ;)
Love the MXR Distortion Plus into an AC30, great sound
Would love to hear this on my Apollo setup. Sounds much more responsive than IR’s as far as I can tell from youtube
It's actually funny that every time Warren said "IR", he got corrected that it's modelling and not IR.
I think it's important to remind people that it's not an IR-based stomp. They work differently although they are use to archive the same thing (cabinet sim).
Indeed! I do think that Rob did a good job of reminding everyone, don’t you? Haha
@@Producelikeapro I remember when PRS release their "Horse Meat" pedal, Paul tried very desperately to convince that it's not a Klon clone. And yet everybody now call it so.
I can imagine this will happen with this pedal also!
As soon as they can emulate feedback - I’m all in. Until then, I’d have to route a digi amp through a power amp and real cab anyway, and at that point the tube amp is getting used.
You can get a freq out pedal ☝🏻😅
Nice! No MIDI?
Well the UA guy was nice.
I’ll take one 🙂
Me too!!
So I’ve wanted an Ox Box for a while bc of the recording possibilities, not really the attenuation. Is this the right way to go?
Yep it would be for sure , as long as you have a line level in to it like a dream 65 / amp in a box or line out of your tube head
@@bobbyarthur8809 yikes i use a tone master twin reverb. Am i d00med bro?
Edit: the dream 65 doesn’t look too bad, might as well look into that
@@PuddleBooks that amp
Has a line out with a level control , that should work fine bro
I’m getting one, they sound way better (richer, likely less brittle highs & more mid-lows), than static IRs.
And I dread scrolling a gazillion IRs….
Headphones?
UA told me to get a (2)-1/4” TRS > female receptacle for using cans; it’s not built to power really bigger can magnets, so you may have to experiment with choices.
I’d bet, just output > a small mixer, like zoom or Yamaha.
Headphones offa that > mixer > Interface.
you are helluva player... i did not know that
Do they do one which has clean sounds?🤔
It’s replacing the speaker. You can feed it any type of sound you like!
Love this. Hope I win.
Marvellous!
But.... what's the latency? My TONEX including cab is 3ms. Without is still 3ms, so if the Ox stomp is 3ms we're already at 6ms.....
With the other unit before it (over 10 years old!) I didn’t notice any annoying or perceptible latency
@@Producelikeaproyeah, fair point.
So do we approve of that Flanger at 17:20?
I did rather like it, although it’s not as nuts as my pedals!
I'm not sure if it was said, or if its very clear.. Can we still use this with a real amp?
Yes only if it has a line level out
Sweet.
Marvellous
It’s decided: guitar tone comes more from the cabinet and mic than from literally anything else.
YÈEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
- Glenn Fricker
@@truthtorpedo99 lol true.
Pick ups … and then …
@@bobbyarthur8809 Yes. Pickups, speaker/cab, and total preamp gain (like, clean vs distorted). I'm pretty sure those three make the biggest difference in actual tone. Everything else is extra.
@@EricMakingWaves I’d agree pick ups are a huge part , an amp running hot at its sweet spot and ya I finish it off with my Marshall ealry 60s grey front cab with 25 watt green backs rewired to 4 ohms … an ox allows the amp to run fully out or sweet spot and the rewire on cab drops some volume but sounds sweeter …
I just want an OX box MKII. So we can run more than 1 amp into it at a time.
I’ll get one when Joe Bonamassa throws out his amp collection. JK, I want one of these now!!
Hahaha thanks for sharing that! Ha
Strymon Blue Sky
Marvellous
The tech is getting nuts.
I think if I buy something today it will be old tomorrow....
Haha maybe!
UAD makes great software and hardware. You probably can't go wrong with anything they've got.
Marvellous! Thanks ever so much
