Universal Audio UAFX Golden Reverberator Guitar Effects Pedal
Universal Audio brings decades of world-class studio modeling expertise straight to your pedalboard with the UAFX Golden Reverberator. Built as an uncompromising flagship stompbox, it captures three distinct eras of legendary ambience: three spring reverb tanks modeled after the "golden units" found in select 1960s American guitar amps, three vintage German studio plate reverbs once used at The Plant in Sausalito, California during the 1950s, and three bit-accurate digital reverb algorithms recreated from late-1970s hardware. Registering the pedal also unlocks the bonus Chamber and Plate 224 effect for even deeper soundscapes.
Universal Audio is renowned among producers and musicians for shaping the sound of modern recording through iconic analog gear and cutting-edge digital signal processing. The UAFX line carries that legacy into compact guitar pedals, using powerful dual-engine processing to run independent stereo instances of each effect without sonic compromise.
This feature-packed pedal offers stereo or dual-mono operation via dual quarter-inch TS inputs and outputs, complete with analog dry-through and customizable modulation per effect. Connect wirelessly over Bluetooth v5 to the UAFX Control mobile app on iOS or Android to customize silent switching, toggle between true mechanical relay bypass and buffered trails, and recall your favorite presets.
It measures 6.5 by 9.2 by 14.1 cm and weighs 0.567 kg. Firmware updates and product registration are handled via a USB Type-C port; operation requires an isolated 9V DC center-negative power supply providing at least 400mA (USB cable and power supply sold separately).
