Featuring Universal Audio's breakthrough Dynamic Speaker Modeling, OX is the first system to accurately emulate speaker drive, breakup, and cone cry - making it the world's finest speaker attenuator and guitar amp recording solution. NOW YOU CAN:Play and record your tube amp in its tonal sweet spot - anywhere, at any volume, with full dynamicsGet stunning mic and guitar cabinet combinations at the turn of a RIG knob - no miking requiredAudition, tweak, and save more than 100 jaw-dropping custom Rigs from compatible iPad or MacGet authentic "edge of destruction" sounds, complete with UA Dynamic Room Modeling, speaker breakup, and cone cry The World's Best Reactive Load BoxWith decades of analog hardware engineering expertise, Universal Audio's dream team of engineers set out to design a reactive load box that retains the tone, dynamics, and feel of your tube amp - no matter how much it's attenuated. The goal was for your tube amp to "see" OX as an actual speaker - with continuously variable impedance and response - so you don't lose a drop of tone or playing dynamics. A Complete Guitar Recording SystemOX's front-panel, six-position RIG control allows you to quickly choose from complete setups - including emulated speaker cabinets, close mics, ambient room mics, and up to four simultaneous studio effects. OX is also the only guitar recording system to offer a complete selection of expertly placed room mics, giving you the authentic experience of pushing air while recording your cranked amp in a world-class tracking room. Dynamic Speaker ModelingUA's groundbreaking Dynamic Speaker Modeling faithfully emulates speaker breakup, drive, and cone cry - an essential ingredient to authentic tube amp tones. Using the Speaker Breakup knob in the OX app, you can control the harmonics and sonic complexity that occurs only at certain frequencies and volume levels on various speakers - far beyond a static Impulse Response system - giving you the same sonic phenomenon that occurs with a real speaker cabinet. A Beautiful Software AppMost guitar products do digital awkwardly. They're ugly and hard to understand. The OX software app, on the other hand, offers slick, intuitive control over all of OX's RIG settings via Wi-Fi - letting you tweak, store and recall hundreds of presets from your iPad or Mac. You can then save your six favorite tones onto OX's front-panel RIG knob for instant recall in the studio or at a gig.
