Universal Audio UAFX Ruby '63 Reviews

Amazing Vox in a box, can you tell the difference?

Another win for UA in the UAFX series, it's like having a AC30 in a pedal... such a great rich sound with lot of combination from the cab models and presets from the app. Look at the review everywhere, usually you have pro/cons vs real amp but it seems this one takes it all to pros!

Vox AC30 in a box!

Amazing sound, just like having a Vox AC30!

Possibly the best of the amp-in-a-box pedals

The best offering from UA, as far as I'm concerned, having also tried the Dream '65 and Woodrow. The Ruby is a well-built powerhouse pedal with a lot of tone shaping ability, and some fantastic tones. It produces a great drive - crisp and well-defined - and pairs with other drive pedals well ('m running a Mythos WW Mjolnir into it, and it roars!). The built in tremolo is a nice touch, too.

The controls can be a *little* tricky to begin; I found the multi-function controls a bit difficult, but soon enough they're easy to master. I'd recommend reading the documentation with this one, to make sure you get the absolute most from this great unit.

Vox (&More) in a Little Box

UA pedals are just the real deal! They are Perfecting the emulation of the sound of ANYthing! It doesn’t get any better and besides appearing expensive, the pedals recreate some iconic sound of music’s history with 1/3 or 1/4 of the price from the original amp!

Bottom line, I can have a Vox AC30 , Fender Deluxe Reverb and a Fender Tweed Deluxe for less than the price of one of the originals , with every aspect perfectly accurate !
