The Universal Audio UAFX DelVerb Ambience Companion is one of the three pedals released at NAMM 2023 by the pro audio company turned stompbox builder. It’s a dual delay + reverb pedal with a separate footswitch and three modes for each effect.
The delay, which has a separate control for modulation, is first in chain and features modes for Analog, Tape, and Digital, while on the reverb side, you’ll be able to choose from Spring, Plate, and Hall. Needless to say, all the algorithms found here are borrowed from Universal Audio’s library of pro audio plugins.
The pedal’s form factor remains faithful to the one seen in other pedals in this line, slightly wider than a compact pedal, and the controls include six knobs two toggles to select the modes and two footswitches.
There’s also an app that allows, among other things, tweaking settings and managing presets.
