This unit honestly replaced most of the pedals on my board. I don't play with a lot of FX, but I do enjoy using a high-end compressor and a preamp that puts just a little hair on my tone. This fits the bill and then some. It's easy to dial in plenty of tone options without the need for endless knob tweaking or menu diving. This is a keeper, for sure!

Phenomenal piece of kit, will no doubt be used for applications other than my pedal board. Studio quality compression and pre amps in a pedal, amazing.

Universal Audio UAFX Max Preamp & Dual Compressor Pedal
Your sound, perfected. Built upon award-winning UAFX dual-engine processing and a burning desire for the ultimate in sonic legitimacy, Max Preamp & Dual Compressor puts the colorful sound of three legendary limiters and an iconic tube preamp, right at your feet. Get Warm Tube Compression with the Teletronix LA-2A This legendary optical tube limiter gives you softer, warmer dynamics control versus the 1176. Plus, you can fine tune your compression with a pedal-exclusive Ratio feature, for limiting beyond the vintage hardware and UAD plug-in versions. Create Funky, Dirty Tones with the Classic Dyna Comp* Add the grimy squeeze of this (in)famous red box to your sounds for lo-fi compression and funky overdrive — perfect for sleazy slide tones. Add a Legendary UA 610 Tube Preamp to Your Rig Get the warm detail and character of UA's iconic tube preamp and EQ, and dial in killer sounds with the perfect amount of harmonics and grit. Stack Compressors for Tones that Go Beyond the Norm With Max, you can easily layer compressors in any combination for a dizzying array of sounds and textures, letting you push your tones to the front no matter how much limiting you apply. Personalize your Pedal with a Mobile App With the UAFX Control app, you can tweak EQ settings, get serial/parallel operation, and add a sidechain bass filter for fully customized compression and preamp effects. *All trademarks are property of their respective owners and used only to represent the effects modeled as part of Max Preamp & Dual Compressor. Note that Max Preamp & Dual Compressor requires a modern 400 mA isolated power supply (sold separately).
