In 2021, music hardware/software experts Universal Audio launched their first line of guitar effects pedals — aptly-named the UAFX series! Bringing the same class-leading innovation and ease-of-use of its pro audio products to a tactile, plug-and-play stompbox format — the forward-thinking brand has now expanded its UAFX range with three "amp-in-a-box" pedals based on iconic, vintage tone machines from the '50s and '60s.
The UAFX Ruby '63 Top Boost amp pedal emulates a quintessential British valve combo beloved by artists and producers for over 60 years, from Queen to U2 and Radiohead. Built on powerful dual-engine processing and acclaimed UAD modelling, the Ruby '63 is designed to deliver "chimey" cleans, complex overdrive, and classic vibrato — all from a compact unit that easily fits on your pedalboard!
