UAFX FAQ

[Dazzla Deville]

No real help here ... but ... Recent Del-Verb, and just received Astra. No such Output issues. Driving from either Prophet 5 Mono Out, or Deepmind 12 Stereo, into older Saffire Pro14, to Win11Pro Desktop PC /Reaper DAW. All good so far. Use (2) TracFone smartphones .... older Motorola - Moto G Power, and newer Samsung Galaxy A53 5G. Early inconsistent issues, but now seem mostly OK. Luv Moto cuz UAFX login brings up gmail info and password for quick connection. Samsung bring gmail, but must enter long passwrod manually. Connection sometime drops out, requiring fone restart. Best of success getting things resolved !

Thanks Thom for the tips, I have an old ZTE Axon 7 which has been a great phone but is due to be replaced when I have the funds. The output for the Astra and Del-Verb maybe different than the AIAB units. I've read others having concerns over clean headroom with the Dream in particular. Hopefully I find a way to test my unit.

When you turn the units off and on again, do they start in panel mode or last preset selected? What's the behavior regarding that? Thanks.

They start with the settings dialed in before turning off.

Hi, I just got an OX Stomp that I absolutely love.

But when I plugged it in - stereo - in doesn't seem to be in true stereo ?

When I have the unit in bypass mode my ping pong delays going into the OX Stomp
are true ping ponging - (independently left to right) -

however when I engaded the pedal on - both sides work
but it's not ping pong left to right anymore - it just delays both sides the same.

Any info or suggestions on what I am missing ? - would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

You'll want to pan the mics L and R.

You'll want to pan the mics L and R.

Thank you! That worked! I got true stereo ping pong delays now

So Mic #1 section is for my left signal path and Mic #2 is for my right signal path

Just want to double check --- so with that setup - no blending 2 mic options using hard pans correct?

Correct, in order to maintain stereo throughput, the panning is needed.

I owned a Dream 65 and I was thinking about a crazy setup (might not work ...).
The chain is: Guitar - Buffer - Compressor - Octaver - Overdrive - A/B box A - Dream 65 and B - Lion 68
And now its where I am not sure if it going to work.
I want the ouput from the dream and the lion to go in a Stereo Delay and a Stereo Modulation and then each side in the audio interface.

The goal is the have a two channel amp with my setup. I dont want to hear the Lion when I play the Dream and the opposite and run stereo effect at the end of the chain. Or I am going to hear only The RIGHT side or the LEFT side ?

Will this work?

To use both amps you’d need an ABY pedal. Theres very little if any difference in the L R channels of the dream and Ruby (don’t have a lion) so taking a mono out to a stereo fx will give you two mono amp signals but they will be out of phase. So you need to switch the phase of the left or right signal. I have out in a request for the OX stomp to allow us to do that for just this reason so two UAFX amps could run into it and phase could be switched in the app. Make sense?

I have been using my Dream 65 and Lion 68 straight into an audio interface. I saw some people using a DI Box for live purposes (length of the cable probably). Can I benefit using a DI box (stereo since I use both pedal with an AB box) in signal clarity/definition? I am not going to spend the money if it is not worth it for home recording.
Thank you

you mean the DI Box before the pedals or after the pedals? in both scenarios, no, you dont need

you might want to use a DI Box before the pedals IF you also want to capture the pure DI Signal to your DAW.
please be aware of the impedances, DI Boxes often have a higher impedance than the 500KOhms that the UAFX Pedals have, so there is a little bit of sound difference coming from that.

another option would be, if you have a good quality audiointerface with a splendid Hi-Z input, to connect your guitar to your HI-Z input of your Audio Interface, and send the signal from your interface ouputs to the pedals input and back to your audiointerface, that way you can also capture the DI and run both pedals. this also works amazingly well, i do this with my UA Apollo alreay and i can also add Insert FX on the DI Signal before sending out the signal again to the UAFX Pedals
