The UAFX Universal Audio OX Stomp represents the American company’s entry in the growing market of cab simulator pedals, although the company already had a similar desktop product with speaker modeling technology simply called OX. This stompbox unit inherits some of that technology and adds a lot more features.
The Ox Stomp integrates with your preferred amp-in-a-box pedal or digital amp modeler to enhance your tone using its 22 speaker/cab combinations, driven by Universal Audio’s Dynamic Speaker Modeling technology. This includes a Speaker Drive knob that allows you to simulate the sound of the input of the cabinet breaking up.
The two Mic Level knobs assignable to 3 vintage mic emulations each (dynamic, condenser and ribbon) and a Room knob for ambience allow to recreate the classic 3-microphone recording studio technique.
Ox Stomp also offers a comprehensive selection of delay, compression, reverb, modulation, and EQ parameters accessible via the UAFX Control app.
The 6-position rig knob is basically a preset selector, providing access to six of your preferred cab/mic/effect combinations.
Like all the other pedals in the UAFX line, the OX Stomp has two footswitches; the second one can be configured in various ways to trigger specific effects (via the app) or to function as a mirror to the A footswitch.
The routing is also next level, with two stereo/dual in/outs which are also configurable through the app.
