UAFX Max Preamp and Dual Compressor is a stereo dual compressor pedal, featuring three legendary studio effects for guitar, preamp and UA 610 tube EQ. Customizable footswitches and bass filtering on the sidechain circuit, via the UAFX Control app. The Max Preamp & Dual Compressor is the fruit of our perpetual quest for sonic authenticity. It's based on our UAFX dual processor, which gives you the original sound of three limiters and a legendary tube preamp at your fingertips.

The mythical sound of the UA 1176 compressor The imagination of UA founder Bill Putnam finds its way to your pedalboard! Max brings you the same FET compressor that has been used in the studio to process the most legendary guitar pickups for decades. Use this effect for even funkier funk, to add expressive sustain, or to subtly vary your sound. The warm compression of the Teletronix LA-2A with tubes This optical tube compressor controls dynamics more gently and less drastically than the 1176. Compression is also tamed with Ratio, an exclusive pedal control that allows more variation than the original or its plug-in versions can produce! A funky, biting sound with MXR Dyna Comp* The famous red pedal for over-compressing and dirtying up the sound, in style! For lo-fi compression, or funky overdrive, it's perfect for making your slides sound anything but clean. The UA 610 tube preamp integrated into our pedal Rediscover the warmth and character of UA's legendary tube preamp and equalizer, and shape breathtaking tones with subtle doses of harmonic distortion. Combine compressors to create your own With Max, layer compressors to suit your tastes to produce a wide variety of sounds. Go for the dense fuzz of Jimmy Page on Led Zeppelin IV, the ultra-compressed slides of 1970s West Coast guitars, or the massive bass that "sounds like it's on the record".
