Universal Audio, the beloved pro audio and pedal brand, expands its UAFX series today with four new compact pedals: Orion Tape Echo, 1176 Studio Compressor, Heavenly Plate Reverb, and Evermore Studio Reverb.
The Orion Tape Echo, based on a vintage Maestro Echoplex EP-III, offers three-dimensional tape delay tones, and enough tweakability to lure you down sonic rabbit holes.
The 1176 Studio Compressor gives guitarists and other musicians studio-level compression in an easy-to-use pedal.
The Heavenly Plate Reverb emulates the sound of the particularly rich EMT plate reverbs of the 1950s.
The Evermore Studio Reverb offers the tones of a different decade-the late 1970s-as found in the early digital units from the likes of Lexicon and its 224 concert hall algorithm. - Розваги
Andy showing us what great sounds you can get from these pedals, awesome as heck. You’re the G.OA.T.
Hope we get that spring reverb from Dream ‘65 next. Hopefully a Space Echo too.
Andy, you are a monster musician.
Let's all take a moment to appreciate how much fun Andy was having demoing these pedals, Particularly the Evermore. They're in the same price bracket as Walrus Audio, Earthquaker Devices, and Source Audio which seems appropriate.
4:37 was that King Missile’s “Detachable Pen15”?
i would buy these for 99 bucks/piece
Then be ready on the used market.
Nice Seuf!
I'm honestly surprised they didnt just make a pedal Apolo with stereo in and out. Then they could nickel and dime us on different algorithms instead of on actual hardware boxes that are the same thing other than a paint job and different effect loaded onto the DSP
Does the footswitch do momentary?
Who makes the brown tele style guitar?
What is this Hagstrom at 18:30?? Modded with some rail hammers and tuned down? Sounds awesome
That’s exactly right! The Reeves Grabrels Sig Railhammers, which are great for detuned guitars too. The Super Swede is also 25.5” which helps tension 👍🏻
Did I watch for Andy's insane finger picking, the pedals, or both?
400 for 3 sounds to 200 for a pretty in depth single sound sounds about right with how UA prices their pedals
The sales strategy from Universal Audio is confusing. Too many overlaps with their products.
Do you need mono with less features or stereo with more features? There ya go!
They want the expensive ones to appear more valuable, by packing less value into these ones.
3 years from now, you will look at the golden as a combo of 2 of these pedals + spring reverb, in stereo.. The point isn't to sell these. It's to sell the golden.
The stereo ones would do much better if they included midi…I mean it’s 2023 why would you not include that feature.
Yeah lack of midi support was a terrible decision
@@LeF11 will they add another tier? The ‘Ultra’ could have all the tape delays ever made, it’s Stereo and it has midi. 🙃
Is something clipping or distortong with the heavenly? How does it perform in a loop at instrument level?
I love that Hagstrom. I want it. Ok bye.
Are the housings made of metal or plastic?
Stereo??
The question on my mind is do they have MIDI or not. Great demo, but no MIDI is still a showstopper for me with their range tbh
Of course not, they have USB-C only using for updating new firmwares
@@anhtransky Hooked into a Morningstar or equivalent would be a dream. Hopefully, one day it’ll happen.
@@stuartgonsal8443 yes hope that too. I just want the USB-C is useful for that
@@anhtransky agree 100% 👍😊
very budget
They look really cheap for quite expensive pedals? 🤷🏻♂️
Would much rather buy the Golden at £ 299 than the Heavenly at £ 199.
$200 is a "budget pedal" these days apparently
For this company it is.
Uff
They offer incredible sound quality in a very compact footprint, but these are hideous. They look like the AmazonBasics/Donner/Nu-x pedals of, but cost four times as much. I picked up a used Strymon Volante for the price of the Orion haha. I'll pass!
Literally judging a pedal by its cover.
Also where did you get a Violante for $200?
"budget pedal" ?? come on...
They look like plastic, are they?
Behringer make plastic pedals for $30.
Behringer pedals don’t sound like these.
I know it’s almost a trope at this point, but their Super Fuzz is actually really good. I don’t own anything else though.
@@milk_bath
Maybe so, but plastic pedals don’t cost like these either.
Their whole line of pricing is ridiculous. I only have quality equipment but I won’t pay UA prices for what you get. Not a chance in hell.
@@Tyrannosaurine
I don’t own any Behringer stuff. These just reminded me of it.
@@Tyrannosaurinetheir vibrato is a clone of the boss that go for crazy money these days, it's great as well
Are these good quality pedals? Yes. Are these any value for money? No.
I don’t know, the Orion is just as close as you can get to my EP-3 and it’s much less than other tape echo pedals.
Not everyone has the same value proposition.
@@AndyDemos that's fine, but they literally put another tape echo, compressor and reverb 2 months ago. Most of guitar players prefer verstatility when it comes to delays, reverbs at this price range and they could totally do it. This throwing away one-mode pedals at premium price tag isn't very appealing. I have UAFX Ruby and it's perfect but again can't help myself thinking they could have put all 3 amps into one pedal or at least include effects loop at given price.
@@DavidVOLTAI say let's wait out the price problem
It think.itl go down
A really good Emt 140 pedal WAS missing on the market
Reverb need to stop spending their profits from excessive fees on UA-cam videos and instead hire more support staff. And a telephone line. And transfer seller's money the same day, instead of making significant interest on it for 2 days or more. Oh, and not charge the seller Wizard of Oz prices for the joke that is 'payment processing'.
Reverb doesn't spend any internal money on these. They get paid $3K-$5K from these pedal brands to make these videos, which is partially why pedals like these are so expensive
I'm not spending $200 bucks for a "budget" pedal. All of their stuff is overpriced. $99 then we can talk.
Can you show me any pedals with this level of quality algorithms for $99?
@@milk_bath I'm not sure if you are just being pedantic or somehow think these pedals are angelic and somehow better than others. Wampler and JHS both make extremely high quality budget pedals at the $99 price point. Are you disagreeing with that and feel those are somehow inferior?
@@KevinDarty Great point, let's say they are comparable in audio quality, but that isn't the only metric to judge a pedal by. The $99 JHS 3 Series Reverbs, Delay, and Compressor aren't even close to being feature rich as these. Wampler's $150 offering is a Spring Reverb and there other delay/reverb pedals are as expensive or more than. Wampler's front page is selling a $270 compressor pedal and the others are $200 and $150
Care to try again?
@@milk_bath it seems you are just looking to argue and I've got better things to do with my time. If that's what tickles your fancy try someplace else as you don't appear to want to have a rational conversation. Goodbye
@@KevinDarty I'm looking for you to have a nuanced opinion that is formed from taking in a holistic perspective and full context as opposed to your kneejerk reaction to the word "budget".
Hilarious that I'm the one that doesn't want to have a "rational conversation" when I am laying out out cost, features, and quality of these pedal and the competitors you mention. If presenting you this data causes you cognitive dissonance then maybe you should reflect on that.
If these pedals were $99 dollars, then how much should JHS's $99 pedals be?
