The New OX Stomp Dynamic Speaker Emulator Guitar Pedal, the smaller brother of the popular OX Amp Top Box, has just been added to Universal Audio’s collection of UAFX pedals, making the range now complete. But is it? Only time will tell but in the meantime, here’s the lowdown on the new OX Stomp pedal.
Just like the OX Amp Top Box, the OX Stomp Dynamic Speaker Emulator pedal gives “amp-in-a-box” modellers a pro studio selection full of authentic-sounding guitar cabinets, mics, room modelling, and studio-quality effects — right at your feet.
In addition to expertly placing close condenser, dynamic, and ribbon mics on your cabs, the OX Stomp pedal offers a complete selection of room mics with Dynamic Room Modeling. This gives you the authentic experience of pushing air while recording your cranked amp when recording. The pedal also gives you over 100 curated RIG setups, for any amp type or genre, right out of the box.
The Ox Stomp also lets you craft your guitar sounds with UA effects like genuine 1176 compression, plate reverb, chorus, flange, three delay types, and four-band EQ with high and low-cut filters. As an added bonus, when using the UAFX Control app, you can easily swap cabs and mics, fine-tune effects, assign RIG presets, and configure footswitches to instantly toggle sounds and/or effects.
