OX Stomp: Studio Cabinets & Mics in a Stompbox
UAD’s award-winning OX Amp Top reactive load box lets guitarists attenuate down while retaining an amp’s dynamic feel and touch sensitivity. OX Stomp packs this same game-changing attenuator technology into a rugged floor unit complete with a packed studio’s worth of cabs, mics and effects.
The key is Dynamic Speaker Modeling – UA’s proprietary tech that captures the complex harmonic content, breakup and cone cry of miked guitar speakers with supernatural realism. Gone are the static one-dimensional impulse responses of the past. Stomp engages speaker drive, resonance and room ambience for living, breathing tone.
Choose from a curated list of 57 expertly mic’d cabs to fit any amp or genre. Then sculpt space with multiple room mic options. You can even add studio effects like genuine UA 1176 limiting, plate reverb, delay, chorus and compression. It’s a production playground for tone junkies.
The included UAFX app allows deep editing of presets plus footswitch assignments. Stomp fits seamlessly into any existing ampless, modeler or even preamp rig. For recording direct or playing ampless live, it’s the new must-have solution.

Whether laying down tracks or going ampless live, Lion perfectly captures the aggressive attack, bell-like cleans and unmistakable presence that powered icons like Hendrix, Page and Van Halen in their day.
