Better Sounding
Jacky O 13.12.2022
Than mij real tube amps. The app that goes with it is fantastisc. I dial in and save the sound for each of my guitars. Works sooo easy. I gigged with it and it was fantastic. I took this and an Orange Tiny Terror Stamp. Just put the Dream ' 65 in the loop-return of the Stamp and used that as a power amp. And could transport this in my guitar gig bag! Just a gig bag with guitar and amp and a small 10" Raging Cajun speaker cab. Sound was awsome. best buy 'ever'

State of the art amp/speaker in a pedal
Mark T 10.08.2022
The Dream 65 is a really accurate simulation of a real Deluxe Reverb. I'm not able to compare it side by side with the real tube amp, but this is good enough for most, if not, all purposes. It beats the Deluxe sound from the Strymon Iridium by a comfortable margin.

The reverb and tremolo are useful, but not quite as versatile as the Strymon Flint. But if you're content with the basic sounds then you have them built in here with the UAFX pedal.

Kemper Killer
Slayerpossie 04.12.2022
Sold my Kemper which I bought almost 10 years ago. This pedal is the perfect amp replacement easily worth twice the money. Extremely versatile, durably built and simply stunning sounding. My tube amps are collecting dust.

this is honestly perfect for me
purpleprose 10.11.2022
Really easy to use, has replaced my amp so gigs are easy. No messing around just plug in and play. My pedal all run through it with no issues. I'm so happy. The sound is just lush, and it's easy to tweak so you can really get the right sound for you.

K
prachtig maar mist normal channel voor echte cleans
Kapser 19.09.2024
Ik had een stereo amp sim nodig voor opnames, oefenen via monitors en als pedalplatform. De Dream zou een uitzonderlijk goed geluid hebben, met mooie cleans en geschikt voor pedalen. Bijna een echte amp, werd beweerd.
En dat levert de Dream ook allemaal, hoewel de cleans nog meer aandacht mogen krijgen. In het begin is het wel even verschieten omdat de volume knop in feite eerder een gain knop is. Deze blijft best op heel laag (eerste kwartier) staan als je cleans wil. Reverb en tremolo zijn heel mooi. De Dream geeft een mooie heldere definitie aan de ruwe klank. Haalt de modder eruit en maakt de bassen tegelijk vol, de highs prachtig rond. De hoge klanken zijn heel uitgesproken en je kan er die Byrds twelve string jangle fantastisch mee doen zonder dat het schril wordt. De bestaande cabs en mod's van de pedaal zelf zijn al voldoende voor mij. Ik hou van de beperktheid van deze pedaal. De app en bonus sounds heb ik nog niet geprobeerd (app zou slecht werken ? Bij de space echo van UA viel die app wel mee).
Drie minpunten :
1. Sparklegeluiden bij overgang van ckean naar gritty klinken soms raar, als artefacts. Die had ik er liever uit gehad. Bij volledig clean zijn ze gelukkig niet aanwezig. Maar soms als je wat harder slaat in de tussenzone krijg je een rare clipping. Een detail, maar het werkte op mijn zenuwen.
2. Ik mis mid control bij distortion en fuzz. Alles klinkt heel goed maar enkel midscooped.
3. Het zou fijn zijn ook een normal channel te hebben met meer ruimte voor cleans zonder clip-artefacts, zoals de Ruby. Nu is er enkel de vibrato channel die mooie maar toch iets meer vuilere cleans geeft met dat clip-issue als je wat teveel gain opzoekt.

Solution for option paralysis
gareg 07.07.2023
I've been playing only through plugins. That usually came at the cost of having too many options. This sounds fantastic, easy to operate and to get a good sound from. The amp, with reverb and trem is almost all i need. Pair it with a couple of pedals and you're done

Indistinguishable Amp Killer
pwan 28.12.2024
I've tried a lot of different ways to get my sound over the years, from modelling to tube, to power soak, to VST plugins. This one is the one. Just a super tasty pedal platform, indistinguishable from a recorded high-end amplifier.

If there's one feature that should really be build in, it's a DI out. Don't get why UA didn't think of this. That's the main usage: silent stage... The Walrus stereo DI box did the trick though. Can do most gigs now by plugging straight into PA + monitors.

Of course, remember that the quality of your sound will depend on the quality of the PA and monitor system when going amp-less. For smaller gigs, I'd still consider running it through my amp without the cab sim.

Incredible value-for-money in 2024!!

Get a Deluxe Reverb in a pedal
Stratlife 25.03.2024
I use this pedal when I cannot have my Fender amp, and it's perfect to get the authentic Fender sound (adding versatility and control with the cab sims and the app presets...) it worths absolutely every penny!

The best sounding modelling pedal I have had. Very realistic sound, sensitive and quite amp like. Reverb is excellent and the mods I use most of the time. Only negative is that there is no headphone output and it would have been nice to have aux in as well for that price, but they are rather expensive. But overall the best sounding amp in a pedal and I prefer modelling over captures.
