Universal Audio Max Preamp and Dual Compressor Pedal

Stereo Dual Compressor Pedal with 3 Compressor Models, 610-style Preamp, Buffered Bypass, and UAFX Control App


Boasting three classic compressor models and a spot-on tube preamp emulation, the Universal Audio Max Preamp & Dual Compressor pedal contains the power of a small studio setup in a standard stompbox form factor. From a classic guitar pedal compressor to a smooth optical tube model to UA’s own 1176, the Max’s dual-compressor design allows for a single instance of compression or the first instance stacked into the second for maximum squash and density. A versatile control section including Attack, Ratio, Release, and Comp adjust each compressor individually depending on where the 2-way Comp Select switch is selected — a knob tweakers dream, and that’s before you throw the harmonic warmth of the 610-style Preamp into the mix! Lastly, if you’re seeking greater adjustability, pair your Max with Universal Audio’s UAFX Control software for improved equalization options, series/parallel switching, and even a sidechain bass filter for an endless array of tonal choices.
