The Universal Audio UAFX Flow is a 3-mode tremolo is an evolution of the Californian company’s Astra Modulation Machine pedal. Unlike the latter, it only does tremolo sounds.
The three tremolo voices are emulations of classic vintage units: the Dharma mode draws inspriration from the harmonic tremolos found in Uni-Vibes and Magnatone amps; the 65 mode recreates the classic tremolos found in vintage Fender amps, while Square is a more modern, choppy sounding option.
Two switches on the back panel allow to access Buffered or True bypass and to transform the footswitch into a Tap Tempo controller.
Here’s the launch video of the Flow.
