Say Goodbye to Static-Sounding IRs
Going far beyond the one-dimensional captures of Impulse Response systems, only UA’s groundbreaking Dynamic Speaker Modeling convincingly emulates speaker breakup, drive, and cone cry — providing harmonics and sonic complexity indistinguishable from a perfectly studio-miked speaker cabinet.

This gives you the authentic experience of pushing air while recording your cranked amp in a world-class tracking room.
Enjoy Studio-Quality Effects
Beyond mic and speaker cabinet modeling, OX Stomp also lets you craft stunning guitar sounds with UA effects like genuine 1176 compression, plate reverb, chorus, flange, three delay types, and four-band EQ with high and low-cut filters.
Expand the Tones of any Amp-in-a-Box Modeler

Customize your OX Stomp with a Full-Featured Mobile App

Outstanding....and no problem with the App
The quality of the sounds that come out of this pedal are amazing. Its almost too good as there are so many factory presets and the majority of them sound superb with my Dream and Woodrow....

Great cab pedal.
This pedal sounds awesome, there's a bunch of bad reviews for the app and bluetooth but all of the uafx pedals have those issues, and I agree with the 6 cab slots being a little insufficient, hopefully they can reprogram it to where maybe when you hold the preset button it can make the 6 slots more with like an A/B side , then it would at least be 12. Or have the on and preset button have an up or down functionality to it, and definitely a desktop app, there's too many phones with different firmwares to run great on every one, I personally have to touch mine every 10 minutes since I can't turn off sleep mode even in developer options so it can the frustrating. That being said the sound quality is awesome, I have multiple effects processors with different paid impulse responses and as I do like a quite a few of them , they didn't even come close to how many I like with this pedal. The reaction, sound and feel just blew me away, I do wish they would add a noise gate to this and some of their other amp pedals like they did with the lion so you can crank up the gain and go to town, I put 2 gates after the ox for high gain scenarios and it works great.

Great tones, horrible app and horrible customer support
What is the point of this gear if you cannot get support for it? The primary app required to adjust essential parameters does not work. Non-existent support. Returned. Frustrated.
B. Love
Frustrating
Great sound and possibilities. Here is the problem, you have 6 rigs/preset spots. Great if you like those 6. In the app however there are a bunch of really great presets and also a lot of tweaks, eq, mics cabs, awesome.... Except the app never works!!! You get it to connect after several attempts, device goes to sleep while demoing your changes, you guessed it, you have been disconnected and have to try and connect to the pedal again. Finally get it to connect again and go to make some eq changes, it just disconnects while accessing the page. I am by no means a UA hater, I have most of their plugs and have tried all of their big pedals. Same issues amongst all of them and have had multiple devices. UA seems to not think the problem exists or maybe they cant fix it. Bottom line buy them if you are happy with the default settings otherwise prepare yourself for frustration. Now i have to decide if I keep losing time and creativity or return it. Sold all of my other UA pedals for the same reason by the way . Had some hope that they addressed the issue....no they didn't.

Great sound with a fiddly app
The sounds are usable and of very good quality!
BUT; the fiddling about with the app is an intolerable imposition. Why the hell isn't a desktop app offered here so that you can work with it properly in the studio?
But you probably have to give OX Amp owners another reason to buy it ... ??
Please, finally offer a desktop app !!!

Great tool, but update often
So, the Ox Stomp has been a great addition to my toolbox. I use it with my Friedman IR pedals and with my Friedman amps after running them through the Suhr Reactive Load IR. Neither the Friedman pedals or the Suhr sound bad, but they don’t react like a real speaker and compress and change character a bit as you adjust your playing. That’s where speaker emulation comes in and takes over where IRs leave off. That’s why you can’t upload your own. The cabinets in the Stomp are not IRs—they’re an emulation of how a speaker actually acts, not a linear representation of the speaker in a particular setting like an IR. Add in all the studio tools of EQ, compressors, yada, yada and you’ve got a huge amount of power in a compact pedal.
And that’s where the rub starts. You have to use the app to get the pedal setup and delve into these features. That’s fine—the app is great for this. The problems come in with connectivity issues and slow pairing with the pedal. You can only connect to the pedal wirelessly and if your phone or tablet locks, the connection drops and takes a bit to reestablish. It’s gotten better with updates to the pedal and app, but still can be frustrating. For me, though, I got my setup and don’t fidget with it too much, so this is a minor issue, but worth the warning.
Overall, a great pedal and a great investment. Solved my complaints about IRs and did so very well.J. Bacon
Utterly beautiful sounds, DESKTOP APP PLEASE !
Having tried many guitar plugins for recording over recent years - some of which are excellent, all told - I still missed the dimension of using a physical amp. But I didn't want to go back to mic'ing loud, heavy tube amps, let alone buying them.
With a Friedman IR-X I got a long way towards a studio solution. (I dare say the UA amp pedals are great too, but haven't tried them yet.)
There are some decent third party IRs out there; they get you the colours you are looking for, but they can't - and don't - react like a speaker in real time. They are kind of 2-dimensional renders.
Along comes the next solution: OX Stomp. And sonically it does not disappoint! This thing gives that sense of space; of things being reactive, complex, delicious.
There are a sensible number of great-sounding cabs and mics included in the package - enough to excite, but not so many as to overwhelm. The room sound feature is cool. The post-effects are great, especially the reverb.
For this aspect of the pedal, it's a solid 5 stars.
Then we must mention the app.
I can only echo what everyone else is saying: it is a pain. Once you are connected, and if you can stay connected, it works ok. But smart phones are not the smart format for this. They would be ok as a "bonus" but, not as the mainstay editor.
In fairness, I managed to get the app to work for me - eventually. And for me, it doesn't matter too much now, because I have set up 6 rigs which all just work, and I am a set-and-forget person.
But if you are someone who likes to tweak, and needs to edit regularly, you are probably going to be as frustrated as many of the other reviewers here.
So - UA - with great respect, please could you prioritise turning this excellent pedal into the *masterpiece* it should be, by giving us a desktop app with a solid USB connection? I can't imagine it would hurt sales; nor should this be difficult for a company of your seniority and talent.

Awesome device, great sound, app is almost unusable
The Ox Stomp is just amazing. It sounds exactly like what I'm used to hearing from miked up speakers. The range of cabinets, microphones, and room mic options covers almost every sound combination you could think of. I'd love to see a Mesa Oversized box with Celestion V30 and an effects box from Pignose added, but that's just a nice-to-have, not a necessity.
I used to be a Two Notes Torpedo user and now I'm absolutely thrilled with the OX Stomp hardware box. However, the app is a disaster. It's impossible to quickly do anything since you always have to grab the tablet next to the computer, hold it with one hand, and operate it with the other, which completely disrupts the flow. With the Two Notes computer app, I can do everything with just two mouse clicks. Even taking your right hand off the guitar, click, click, and you've got a different sound. That's usability.
Additionally, the app constantly needs to be reconnected to the Ox Stomp via Bluetooth since the connection drops out regularly.
I love the OX Box, but if it were connected with a stable desktop app via USB, I'd love it even more. Then it would be perfect.A. Mtz
VERY UNCOMFORTABLE APP
sorry to say — as many reviews before— i don’t know who told you that having the app in the cell for hardware like this one could be a brilliant idea ?
it’s annoying !

Sound 10 - App 0
Love the tones but editing is a drag. Give us a desktop app with better usability and adjustability. Can’t be that hard for a company like yours? Just get it done soon!

I beg you, create a desktop application
It sounds good, but like all the other reviews, it's an unfinished product...
M. Terracol
Very disapointed by the sound. The bluetooth app is a mess.
Regarding the sound, I found it OK, but far from being extraordinary as the commercial videos claimed. After two weeks of testing and tweaking, I much prefer my old Torpedo CAB M, which sounds more lively and natural with a wider choice of speakers. Regarding the additional features, the delay is ok, I didn't like the reverb and the compressor seems unusable. The “room microphones” feature is interesting, but it quickly sounds artificial to my ears.
The biggest mess is the MANDATORY Bluetooth app. UA simply should not sell this product. It is almost impossible to connect the app to the pedal. The only way is to "forget device completely" in your phone settings every time you want to change something on the pedal. This is unacceptable!
In conclusion, I found this to be a very expensive and unfinished product. I returned it for a refund, with no regrets.A. Cooper
Outstanding....and no problem with the App
The quality of the sounds that come out of this pedal are amazing. Its almost too good as there are so many factory presets and the majority of them sound superb with my Dream and Woodrow. I suggest finding a handful of presets you like and then sticking with them. Its very easy to tweak the sounds to taste anyway. I had some apprehension buying the OX Stomp as almost every review I've read, including nearly all of the reviews here, noted how awful the App was. It seems that mobile screen lock seems to be at least partly to blame for the connectivity issues so I adjusted my mobile settings before staring the UAFX Control App to prevent screen lock. I've been controlling the OX Stomp with the app now for a couple of days and I haven't encountered any connectivity issues yet...touch wood. I've got the latest version of UAFX Control installed on my phone which is running on Android 14, in case that helps anyone.

Great product - Crappy App
Out of the box, the OX Stomp is a 5 star product. The ONLY downside is the app. On both, my Android phone and IPad, the app started about 25% of the time. I bought a new IPad Air, it works 100% of the time. The logic is still too laggy to enjoy. Fix the lag and bluetooth reliability, it's a 5 star experience all day, every day.

Issues with the app
I love the way it sounds, but it don't work with Android system... Can you design a computer application please ?
M. Durno
App & Bluetooth Fail Befuddling for UA Product
Majority reviews below already speak to the shortcomings that make it essentially useless to comment on the actual sound of the pedal. The app and Bluetooth functionality is so poor that it's borderline inappropriate to sell this version of the pedal (certainly not compared to any other UA product I have used or read about). The UAFX app is terrible for any pedal, but for the Ox Stomp it's the only way to use the damn thing. It's an unacceptable miss that everyone rightly expects to be corrected "yesterday."

The app doesn't work
Impossibile to use. If the app is not fixed i will send it back.

I JUST CANT MAKE IT WORK WITH ANDROID APP. PLEASE MAKE A DESKTOP APP ASAP. EVERYBODY IS ASKING FOR. SOUNDS AMAZING BUT WE CANT MAKE IT WORK! HELP US UAD. WE SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON YOUR PRODUCTS.

The sounds on this are great and (unlike the overpriced OX box) this will be a new fixture on my recording rig, however, two glaring issues hold this product back: 1) the app is terrible and makes demoing the different capabilities of the pedal extremely tedious. The adjustment controls are covered by my fingers and are difficult to fine tune. My phone decides to go to sleep while I'm verifying the sounds and then, well, it's another slow process to reconnect the phone app to the pedal. Terrible. Make a desktop app. Like the OX Box. 2) The inability to blend different speakers and combinations of speakers and mics is really a missed opportunity. IR loaders usually have this feature and it's an obvious miss from UA. I would love to blend several speakers/mics on output 1 and then use output 2 for the direct signal only. This would make the pedal perfect. Until then, UA is missing the boat.

Great speaker emulator, needs Desktop App
Very happy with the cab sounds I’m getting from the OX Stomp. Easy to setup, no issues getting the OX Stomp firmware updated. Setup the app on my iPhone and was able to connect.
Only issue is, I have one eye, so trying to tweak the settings on my iPhone is a hassle. Since there is no Desktop App this makes it hard for me to use. I do have 20/20 vision in my one eye, but having a Desktop App for us visually challenged musicians would be very helpful.
If it had a Desktop App I would give it 5 stars.
