UAFX Puts Emulations of Iconic Amps into Three New Pedals!
Based on classic tweed, top-boost, and ‘65 Reverb amp circuits, UAFX amp pedals boast a handful of speaker, cabinet, and mic options to further shape your tone
Following Universal Audio's leap into the guitar pedal market last year with the debut of its UAFX line of guitar effects pedals, the company that made its name developing pristine digital amp and effects modeling plugins for DAW software platforms has launched a new series of amp modeling pedals!
