I've been waiting for a product like this, looking forward to seeing more Pete, thanks!
Can't wait for the full demo Pete!
This sounds amazing Pete. Can't wait for the full review
I'm a Vox guy through and through; there is just something perfect about that chime, both perfectly dirty and clean at the same tome. That being said, that preset into the OX was just phenomenal, practically capturing all the best parts of a cranked Vox. Killer!
Played around with this at summer name last year, it is a truly impressive piece of gear. Your amps, your tone, but able to get them "into" the box silently and with style.
Very timely. Thank you Pete for all your work!
Yes!!! Completely agreed Pete. I got mine this week as well and I'm stunned by how much I love it. Even just sitting around the house with headphones it's really satisfying to have it sound so good and not have to run a DAW or other program in conjunction to run IR's.
William Lang so i can plug my amp into this thing and completely shut the cabinet off and plug my headphones into it and play my amp like that? Seems too good to be true but thats a deal breaker. If i can do that without having to use an app or interface thru a computer im definitely buying it. I just wanna get the tone from my amp but quietly using headphones.
Best Vox tone you've ever given us! I must buy one for my live rig!
Very interesting and useful toy! I love Uad stuff. Another cool review as usual! Thank you Pete! 💪👍
Love my Ox. Blown away with the sound!
The review I was waiting for!
Had to re wind a couple of times as I kept hearing Phil X instead of FedEx. lol
That Vox inspired pre-set sounds amazingly good !
Got this a few weeks ago and love it. But still looking forward to the full review to see what you do with it Pete!
After seeing the videos of this thing at NAMM, this was the review I've been waiting for. I hope Pete does a full review with one of those cool intro songs.
Sounds magical PT!!!!
One of the few honest review sources 👍🏻
Pete plays Pete! Sounds killer buddy, nice chord-melody business, that device is a winner!
Sounds awesome, Pete.
Sounds awesome, thanks for the video mate, it looks like the best attenuator out there and the other stuff it does is a great bonus :)
Ooh ... nice product, I'd love one of these!
Been absolutely BLOWN AWAY with mine as well. Feels SO real!
Spectacular sound - wow
That was quick side ! Thanks for sharing!
This thing rocks!!!! Must have! :) thanks for the awesome video Pete! \m/
Amazing tip! Great video
Holy smokes that Vox AC sound is fantastic! Nice....
Gawd-dayum -- I love that tone. Jeeez
Sounds great Pete! Got mine last week, going to work on the OX into my Suhr PT-100se tomorrow morning. Can't wait to find a cab/mic model with the PT-100 for an all around live gig. Hope you demo your PT-100 with the OX.
I had a feeling you were gonna get this fabulous gizmo after watching the NAMM show vid. Kick Ass!
I used an OX at a gig last week, sounded great with inears and it really helped tame my stage volume. Downside-It’s bigger and heavier than I thought and it only has 1/4 inch outs so you need a direct box or two.
Looking forward to your demo! The OX blew me away at NAMM. I jokingly told the demo I guy I didn't like him anymore, because it's my next G.A.S purchase. Seriously for (cab/mic/room) modeling I couldn't believe how responsive it was with no latency.
that's awesome pete.
Great - great! - sound there, wow.
Very nice! I don't have tons of different amps tho (just a big Twin) so would love it if it had some classic amp models included. That would make it perfect for me...Thanks Pete
To me, this unit is perfect for the working/performing/studio guitar player and/or producer.
Amazing!!
You can bypass the cabinet and use Impulse Response loaded in your DAW with the OX by choosing Direct for both Mic in the OX App
Hey Pete another great video ! I heard great things about the ox box, Killer sounds, how diferent is it from the fryette power station behind you ?
So, tell us more about that fractal load box in the background?
I S/PDIFed out my coffee when you said that hahaha
Love mine!
Looks awesome, can't wait for more.... in the meantime, what ever happened to your amps in the zone series... i think i seen the marshall and was waitin for more... i bought a nice ac30ch i'm fighting with a bit... so vox in the zone would be great to see !
+macleanclassics I want to do Fender one next and maybe I will try and knock it out in the next few days, just been busy!
Thanks Pete, your you tube content is fantastic, always appreciated and much anticipated !
Thanks for this, Pete! I've been wondering how these things sound and play.
hey people your looking at the future. say goodbye to all the ir's and any need for delays/reverbs once its foot switch control is updated. I'm sure lots of upgrades are coming like foot controller cabs, speakers,ect.. this unit is frickin awesome. I will take a cranked tube amp over any other.
A Vox man cool, I love my Vox amps. I have the DA 15 and AC 15 in the more traditional colours and am thinking very much about getting the clean tone Mv50 as released this NAMM 2018. (I have an old cab with a 15 speaker in form a sound system my Jamaican bro gave me; should sound killer from that, the bottom end is waoh big!)
Love my Ox. Pete look forward to that P90 guitar (I think it i a Macmull?) going through the SL 68 and a 4x12 in the Ox!
Hey Pete, love your videos. I have learned SO much from your clear and comprehensive explanations! Here’s the dilemma I’m facing: what is the best option for late night tube amp recording? You have long been a proponent of IR’s, and I was ready to pull the trigger on the Suhr reactive load box/convolution reverb/IR option. Now along comes the OX... and I’m again uncertain. The OX is definitely the more expensive option. The question is - in your opinion - are the results worth the extra cost?
+John Doyle both work exceptionally well, with the Suhr it’s a simple straightforward box that you’ll need to add ir’s in your daw or an analog speaker sim to, So it’s a bit different approach. With the UA, they’ve integrated everything quite beautifully all together. I could get great results with both,
It’s just a question of which approach you want to take, and what’s important to you.
Why the hell does Pete "only" have 114K subs...anyone with a brain knows that is pure sacrilege. :) Can't wait to see the full review!
At this point would be great see a comparison video between all the load boxes you have got, and hear how they work differently
+Danny_Misleading sort of did that in my load box vid from a few years ago- tough to compare exactly because in the case of this one, it has its own cabs/mics etc no way to use them with another load (I dont think so at least)
Pete Thorn okay I totally understand I haven't thought about that, I have always got in my mind the third part IR impulse, by they way thank you for the answer :)
OX vs Suhr vs Fractal Audio reactive load box comparison please!
Could tell you were really interested in this at namm. That suhr is damn sek- also .
@pete thorn do you prefer the Optical TOSLINK cable or coaxial RCA cables for connecting to your UA interface? My Ox should be arriving today!
I'd like them to take on Kemper with a guitar/bass specific grab and go box that you can just use your purchased UAD plugins and control via iPad like that. This is a game changer for the studio but still a bit too impractical for me live, you still have to lug an amp around. (lazy I know) Seriously if this thing could do both Unison amp modeling AND be a reactive load when I have an amp I'd totally get it.
Ua ox, monitor top box!
To be able to upload UAD plugins and to control them with a midi pedal would make this a perfect tool for live use. How does the reactive load compare to Power Station 2? Did you hear or feel any difference?
Thanks for the review. Can you send back to reamps ?
I'd be interested in this if it was just the modeling and fx in a small box.
What's your choice between this and something like the Two Notes Live or Studio?
I'm not a Vox guy, but, wow, did that ever sound great!
Sounds like you're a brand new Vox guy ;)
That guitar is so pretty
Pete I'd like to know what your thoughts are on it just as a loadbox (cab bypass)? As good as Surh?
cheers
Is this basically the same thing as the Boss Tube Amp Expander?
Hey Pete, I've learned that the OX outputs at only 44.1 - can it be used at any other sample rate?
Bad ass.
It would be cool if you could drag mic placement,that way you could set it anywhere you wanted.
The two notes wall of sound plugin has those kind of features if you’re into that.
This product seems custom made for my live playing needs, but seems optimized for studio:
1. Wall wort with proprietary oddball connector.
2. No XLR- needs a DI box
3. Doesn't look durable enough to not have a case. Odd size to put in a case.
4. Price is very high
Sounds great though. I'll probably ending up saving and getting one anyway, despite my gripes.
Hey Pete/all - question about effects loops and transitioning between live and recording situations - let’s say I have two tube amps slaved with an effects loop in stereo (timeline/eventide stuff in a series loop) ala Andy Timmons. If I wanted to transition to an in ears silent setup with one amp, the ox box, and stereo, would I run all my drives into the amp, then into the ox box, and instead of using the amps effects loop then run the line out of the ox in stereo and adjust the inputs and outputs on the eventide to line level right into a mixer or daw?
Sure, you can do that yes, and add the effects after the ox
When is the full demo coming? :)
Hey dude, like does this replicate a Purple Rat running through an FX Loop? I also need to run a Bluetooth through my Dre phones using my EVH 5150 in my bedroom.
Sort of a left field question but how’s that Shaffer Dallas replica?
Would love to have this except I can't afford it, so I'm stuck with my two notes Captor :/
doest it remplace the torpedo studio?
probably dumb question: is the sound coming out of the monitors or the vox amp(speaker cab)? Would be both possible? As always killer sound Pete! Peace
+gony92 hi- not a dumb question at all- the sound is the modeled speaker cabs/mics- so no Guitar cab is involved here, this sound is d.i. But yes I could have this sound going to interface or to a pa, and also have a guitar cab plugged in and hear sound through the Guitar cab
Pete, couldn't a person run a direct out from the OX into that Fryette Power Station that is sitting on the shelf behind you and have a very compact live set up?
+Dennis GarryOwen actually the OX is an attenuator too so you can just run it into the speaker while sending speaker sim to the house and you can get your amp at a lower volume
Is it kinda like a kemper ?
Hi, Pete, This is my first visit to your videos. Just wanted to know - you said you are using an AC15 vox. So does it mean I only need a Vox Cab and the OX? no head? Sorry, I am just learning all the tech stuff. Also wanted to know if I had a combo amp which is solid state do I still need the OX? Thanks!
No, you need an amplifier to use with the ox. You don't need a speaker cabinet.
The ox only works with tube amplifiers, not solid state
Sounds good. Gonna stick with my Torpedo though.
Hi Pete or anyone who can help me.
I just bought the OX Universal Audio and tried to get it running from my Apogee One interface. I receive signal from my amp that passes through the OX but when I enter through the instrument input in my Apogee it does not reproduce any cabinet sound or effects, delay or reverbs trom the Ox. I can't find it from the Logic either. Please can you help me with this? I will thank you forever.
Cool demo.. I have only one question did you used the analog out or the digital one?
Markus Nowak he says he used spdif/digital in the video.
Jebus! How much emf is in that small space!
Hey Pete how’s it compare with torpedo live ?
Dammit, now I need one too. Lol
I have an OX - I run a Diezel VH4 or a Badcat Blackcat 30R head into it...it has replaced Kemper for recording. IT IS AMAZING. Demo coming tomorrow on my channel - it will be sh*te compared to the legend that is Pete Thorn's...but golly gosh...OX is worth EVERY PENNY!
Really wondering where to go next. Unit such as this, keep my amps and buy more, or Kemper. With the Kemper, I would have everything in one place all the time. Something like this would be less of a financial burden up front.
Julien Valois Dobbie keep your amps because they’re the best. And buy a kemper if possible. Do not sell your amps though or pedals. Kemper’s close but no cigar. Powered Kemper is just plug in to a cabinet and play.
Yeah, it's not as sexy to me as traditional gear. But for a home studio, it makes a lot of sense. Considering I don't have uber preamps and mics and/or expertise at mic'ing cabinets. Friend of mine just sold his Two Rock to get a Kemper. He's super pleased with it. Haven't heard him play it live, but the small videos he made are very convincing. Still, the OX looks very promising and usable live.
Hello Pete. Living in a condo I can't use amps so I am using modelers for many years now. If I decidee to buy a real amp and a load box will I hear feel a lot of difference?
... that's a good question
I have yet to find a MSRP.
Does it have an FX loop?
How is the attenuator compared to the Fryette power station in terms of sound quality?
I haven't any idea but what we were hearing was the amp signal turned right down & the simulated sound off the Rig section of the Ox. So it attenuates pretty well to nothing!
U know i love ur music, but an honest question: how can u turn on all these devices on ur studio? maybe u leave them on and say 'at this point f. it'
+Alexius Λ Just turn on everything and plug it all in and hit big chord yes “f it”
Peter, your video playing Torpedo CAB with tube preamp sounds better. In my opinion. Regards!
+Velhos Novos nothing wrong with the CAB, it’s a solid unit
Both are great (OX and CAB)!
Is UA planning a VST plugin or Android version of the app?
I doubt a VST. Hope for Android. The whole model is getting you to invest in expensive, but quality, hardware, and then shell out more for expensive plugs. They have some great amp plugs for Apollo but this combo is unique.
They have a OSX version of the software as well. My theory is that they might have an exclusivity deal with Apple for this product.
I see it didn't take you long to get one after NAMM
Dear Santa...
likey!
Argh, I want it... but money...
What are your thoughts on komet amps??
+Logan super nice. Touch sensitive, bloom, one note becomes 3... stuff like that :)
Hi, does anyone know how the ox could be used with a 1967 fender super reverb?
I would set it (OX) for 4 ohms, and just connect the main speaker out of the amp to the Ox, then the Ox speaker out to the amps speakers. Then you can use the internal OX attenuator to turn down your super reverb, and take the OX line out into a recording interface or pa for the mic’d up tones
@@PeteThorn thanks Pete ... nervous !! Don’t wanna blow it ...
Man, you're not using it properly...it's supposed to go on top of the amp... ;)
ps
That guitar still looks so gooooood.
Pete, what’s that X-Load behind you?
+300jet that is a new load box made by Fractal. It is nice! Sounds good!
oh wow wow wow wow wow thats impressive
+Eric John :)
