Description

Spread the love

In 2021, music hardware/software experts Universal Audio launched their first line of guitar effects pedals — aptly-named the UAFX series! Bringing the same class-leading innovation and ease-of-use of its pro audio products to a tactile, plug-and-play stompbox format — the forward-thinking brand has now expanded its UAFX range with three “amp-in-a-box” pedals based on iconic, vintage tone machines from the ’50s and ’60s.

The UAFX Woodrow ’55 Instrument amp pedal emulates the nostalgic, American “tweed” valve amp sounds used by artists and producers for decades — from The Eagles, to Chuck Berry and Neil Young. Built on powerful dual-engine processing and acclaimed UAD modelling, the Woodrow ’55 packs vibrant cleans, rich overdrive, and grungy distortion into a compact unit that easily fits on your pedalboard!

UAFX 2.0 Update: MIDI Control, Better Bluetooth, Expanded Presets & More

Using the rear panel USB-to-MIDI connection*, UAFX pedals fit right into your programmable MIDI rig — receiving preset changes, BPM clock sync and more! Here’s everything you get out of the free update:

USB MIDI control: Bring your live shows to life with USB MIDI support providing 128 recallable presets, MIDI BPM clock sync and real-time expression.
Wired USB app control: Control your pedals via the UAFX app over a wired USB connection (iOS or Android), offering another robust option for managing settings.
Improved Bluetooth connectivity: Ground-up redesign of UAFX app control over Bluetooth, for improved reliability.
Footswitch options: Switch between more presets on UAFX Amp Pedals using powerful new performance modes like Live, Tour (A/Bypass-B/Bypass) and A/B-C/D.

*Requires a compatible USB MIDI host, controller, or interface. Control of multiple UAFX pedals will require an additional USB hub. Click here to learn more.

Brand

Universal Audio UAFX

Universal Audio UAFX is Universal Audio’s pedal line, built around high-quality digital modelling derived from their studio hardware and software heritage. These pedals focus on capturing the behaviour and feel of classic amplifiers, effects, and recording chains, rather than offering endless tweakability. The emphasis is on accuracy, depth, and consistency, with sounds that feel finished straight out of the box.

UAFX pedals serve up carefully prepared, high-fidelity flavours that reward players who want studio-grade results on a pedalboard. They work best when treated as centrepiece ingredients rather than background seasoning — confident, refined, and designed to deliver the same result every time you step on them.

Delay

A delay pedal records your signal and plays it back after a set time, creating echoes that can range from tight, slapback repeats to long, atmospheric trails. It’s one of the most versatile effects, used to thicken tones, add rhythmic depth, or build spacious, ambient layers. Analogue delays offer warm, decaying repeats that blend naturally with your tone, while digital units provide pristine echoes with precise control over time, feedback, and mix levels.

From classic rockabilly and tape-style echoes to modern looping and shimmer effects, delay pedals have become essential tools for shaping sound. They can make solos soar, rhythms pulse, or transform simple chord progressions into cinematic textures. Whether used subtly to add dimension or boldly to create soundscapes, a good delay pedal can completely redefine the feel and atmosphere of your music.

Distortion

Distortion pedals take your clean guitar signal and transform it into something bigger, bolder, and full of attitude. By clipping the waveform, they add sustain, bite, and aggression, creating that thick, compressed tone that’s powered rock music for decades. From the growling crunch of classic hard rock to the tight, saturated roar of modern metal, distortion is all about energy and presence. It gives every note weight and authority, pushing your amp to its limits and beyond.

There are countless flavours of distortion, each with its own texture and edge. Some sound smooth and creamy, others raw and gnarly like tearing fabric. It’s the sonic equivalent of turning up the heat until the sound cooks — rich, sizzling, and perfectly seasoned to taste. Whether used for rhythm muscle or soaring leads, a good distortion pedal doesn’t just add volume; it adds personality, grit, and that unmistakable sense of power under your fingers.

Expression

Expression pedals allow real-time control over specific parameters on compatible guitar pedals, such as volume, delay time, modulation depth, or filter sweep. Used with an expression input, they let players shape effects dynamically with their foot, adding movement and performance control that cannot be achieved with fixed knob settings.

MIDI

MIDI pedals use the Musical Instrument Digital Interface standard to communicate with other guitar pedals, effects units, and hardware. They allow control over presets, parameters, and switching across multiple devices from a single controller. MIDI integration makes it possible to build complex, synchronised pedal setups while keeping control simple and consistent.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

Overdrive

Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.
