Product information "Universal Audio UAFX Max preamp & Dual Compressor"
Universal Audio has made a very good name for itself with the effect pedals in the UAFX series - now UA is going one better: the Max Preamp & Dual Compressor - 3 legendary compressors and a legendary preamp in one compact pedal. The Max pedal delivers authentic, digital simulations of the UA 1176 FET compressor, the Teletronix LA-2 tube compressor and the good old Dynacomp as a classic pedal compressor. A simulation of the UA-610 tube preamp is also included. All compressors can be stacked in any order and can be processed with the preamp. The Max Pedal can also be configured with the UAFX Control App, e.g. adjusting the tone control of the preamp, configuring the footswitches, activating the side chain bass filter, etc. The operating software can be updated via the USB-C port.

Pioneer in audio recording for more than 50 years
Founded in 1958 by Bill Putnam Sr., Universal Audio has long been synonymous with innovative recording equipment. As the favourite engineer of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles and others, Bill was a passionate innovator who is regarded as the father of modern audio recording. Many of his legendary studio and equipment designs are still in use today. B. Putnam was the inventor of the modern mixing console, the multiband audio equaliser and he was the first engineer to use artificial reverb on commercial recordings. Alongside his friend Les Paul, Bill was also involved in the early development of stereophonic recording.
Putnam, known as a driven entrepreneur, founded three audio product companies during his long career: Universal Audio, Studio Electronics and Urei. All three companies built devices that were widely adopted after their introduction and would shape the studio sound for generations. The boutique compressors LA-2A and 1176 and the 610 tube console are among these legends. Artists such as Sinatra, the Beach Boys and Van Halen recorded their studio albums on the 610 console.
Universal Audio was re-established in 1999 by Bill's sons James Putnam and Bill Putnam Jr. The plan was twofold: on the one hand to faithfully reproduce classic analogue recording gear in their father's tradition; and on the other to bring the sound and spirit of vintage analogue technology into the new digital recording tools .
By now impressive effects pedals for guitarists and specialised guitar-recording tools such as the Universal Audio OX are also part of the range and are extremely popular with fans of outstanding tone.
