Step inside Premier Guitar’s magical, miraculous time machine and revisit the gear that stood head and shoulders above the rest as Premier Gear Award winners in 2018.
Universal Audio OX
Designed to perch atop combo amps or heads, UA’s OX is a speaker load box/power attenuator paired with microphone/cabinet/room modeling software, plus a few modeled effects. OX receives signal via your amp’s speaker output, and its balanced 1/4" stereo outputs connect to studio channels or PA systems, letting you capture tube-amp tones without a mic. With its included editing apps, OX is a near-total triumph of form, function, and sound.
