Imagine having the power of a small studio setup right at your feet. With the Universal Audio Max Preamp & Dual Compressor pedal, you can experience just that! This incredible pedal packs three classic compressor models and a spot-on tube preamp emulation into a standard stompbox form factor.
Whether you're looking for the classic squish of a guitar pedal compressor, the smoothness of an optical tube model, or the iconic sound of UA’s 1176, the Max has you covered. Its dual-compressor design lets you use each compressor separately or stack them for maximum squash and density, perfect for dialing in your ideal sound.
The Max offers a versatile control section with Attack, Ratio, Release, and Comp settings, allowing you to tweak each compressor individually using the 2-way Comp Select switch. This pedal is a dream for knob tweakers, and that's before you add the harmonic warmth of the 610-style Preamp into the mix!
For even greater flexibility, pair your Max with Universal Audio’s UAFX Control software. This gives you enhanced equalization options, series/parallel switching, and a sidechain bass filter, opening up an endless array of tonal possibilities.
