    Those UA pedals sound glorious. Would love to hear you AB the Ruby with the real thing when you return to the rock. Btw, I got back from my first trip to Malta a few days ago. Loved it! Stayed in the old walled city in Valetta and saw the festival of giant puppets the night before we left. Beautiful city. Fantastic seafood restaurants all around the coast. And some of the bluest, clearest sea I have swum in years. Great hotel, lovely people, buses that run everywhere reliably and not at all expensive! Just perfect.

    The new UA pedals are sick. But at $400 each, I’d be at $1,200 for all three. I am more tempted by the new TwoNotes ReVolt. It is a tube pedal with three amps in one pedal… a Fender, Marshall, and Soldano, for $500. Sounds great in videos, but not sure yet how it compares to the UA ones.

  • @SteveHatzman

    Awesome Rob. Was that an FRFR speaker cab you were playing that pedal through? I’ve been looking for a good one for my QC. Oh and again it would be awesome if Sweetwater sold Chapman guitars.

    • @RobChappers

    So, running four cable method into the Blackstar combo, effectively replacing the preamp? Was the cab sim still on though? At one point Don says "through greenbacks" referring to one of the presets selected so I'm assuming it was.

  • @CentaurusRelax314
    @CentaurusRelax314 2 роки тому +2

    Sounds great, but i'm confused. Rob says "totally suspends my disbelief that it's not a valve amp." But, isn't he playing the pedal *through* a valve amp? Blackstar combo? Is that amp solid state? If not, aren't we hearing a combination of the Ruby processing through tube amplification?

    • @Paul-dw2cl
      @Paul-dw2cl Рік тому +1

      My name? Oh let me tell you my name. Uh, I'm confused. Because uh you know, like we're supposed to believe in the ministry, right? Is a confused person get a resolution? I don't understand. You see, when you go like that, right, you have a cross, right. Two sticks, right. And that's how I felt when I was in Waterloo. Cuz when I walked in Waterloo and smiled at people, they treated me like a vampire. They used the cross and they went like this by not smiling at me. In Toronto, hey hi guys, you know me. Steve Spiros. Easy going? Those who know me, I'm a nobody. You understand? And you can't kill a person with no body. So, why am I afraid? I'm not afraid. I'm afraid of the boogeyman, who is the Boogeyman? You figure it out! I'm going back to Waterloo where the vampires hang out! And I'm going to wear my sunglasses at night. You know why? Because women show their tits, have short skirts, and they feel violated when I look at them! Why? Because I have sunglasses on and I'm weird. Uh, I'm from humberside. I'm sorry if I made a fool of humberside. But all those people who called me a sleepwalker, I woke up. now I'm going back to sleep because I'm going to be committed in an isolation room, because I'm going back to the ministry and allow them to perceive me as I am! A fuck up! Goodbye! Hey Toronto the good. Look at the square! It was a shithole when I worked here. Now it looks like New York Manhattan! Where are the bums? There's no bums here. Toronto doesn't have bums. But Waterloo, they're creating bums! They created me. Why? I don't know. Maybe it's the church. Talk to the pope, he knows everything. I had it! I'm gonna die! How can you die, when you're dead. Oh wait a second, I'm going to be crucified, right? I'm not going to raise my voice, because I'm committed to the Lord. I love you.

    Wouldn't it be cool if Sweetwater sold Chapman guitars? *wink wink nudge nudge*
    Jokes aside, Sweetwater is a great company. I get much better customer service from them than i do any other store in the US regardless of the products they sell.
    Great tones from the Ruby. It sounds so incredible. I really hope UA puts out a version with a built in poweramp. At any rate, something like the Ruby and an EHX 44 Magnum would be an incredible pedalboard amp platform for classic rock tones.

  • @zoomzoom3950
    @zoomzoom3950 2 роки тому +3

    I'm interested in the Ruby, I think all three of these pedals sound good from what I've heard. But the cynic in me....
    I've yet to see one reviewer notice that all three of these amp-in-a-box pedals have similar if not identical hardware, and their real differences are from the software loaded into the pedal.
    Which means UA could sell an "amp-in-the-box" pedal with one or more of the amp model software, and allow customers to purchase software packs to load the other amp models into their one pedal, albeit one amp model at a time.
    It's like buying three different computers to run three different versions of the same software. Who does that? UA, that's who.
    The UA money grab will work. If you buy two or more, realize you're paying for extra hardware to get the software model.
    Rant over, I'll probably be buying the Ruby. 😁

    • @zoomzoom3950
      @zoomzoom3950 Рік тому

      @Electrus Co wrong again as usual. Don't stop believing. 🤣
      They're digital modeling pedals, at least in part. Why else would they have firmware, loadable cabinet/speaker IRs and software editors to load and store presets?
      Do you really think the amp models are analog in hardware? 🤣
      edit: the software is likely embedded, on an eprom or similar programmable chip - nothing new. If so, they could have made it possible to update/change the software allowing customers to load any of the three pedal software models, one at a time, into any pedal. But doing this would mean customers would only need to buy one pedal, and the additional software models which likely have a lower profit margin.
      Source Audio One Series does this. You can buy the OD pedal and replace it and load the fuzz or distortion pedal software, then reload the OD software for example.
      Thanks for playing.
      I haven't seen UA respond to confirm or deny my statement; guess someone will have to open one up and post the gut shots.
