OX Amp Top Box Reviews
- DCD. C.I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars12 months agoGame Changing Gear
Believe the hype. OXBOX is is Swiss Army Knife of tone shaping tools. I've particularly enjoyed using it as in interface during rehearsals, allowing me to have some room tone while getting a perfectly recorded, pefectly isolated signal. Great piece of kit.

great sounds but constant connection problems. Considering the cost it is a problem that needs to be solved.

I'm still trying to work through the issues, but there is an artificial break-up distortion on the high end that seems to be input overload, even when my meters are all green. I've tried it with single-ended amps, so there is no chance of an issue from mismatched tubes that the support talks about.
It works to play quietly at night and I'm in the middle of using it to record an album, but the amps don't sound the same as they do in the room with the same mic and speaker as modeled on the OX. I bought a second one to verify and they both have it. I've heard it on other people's YouTube videos now that I'm aware of it. It is not a silver bullet.
Besides the artificial distortion I hear, the amps don't seem to have the same amount of headroom as they do in real life. This causes me to find new tones instead of using settings that make tones I like in real life. So, it is like relearning how to ride a bike, which is a drawback. I've troubleshot the thing to death - impedances are matched, tubes are good, tried a new spdif cable, power supply, new ox, verified metering, etc. I sent a sound file to UA, and the support person told me they didn't hear anything. My wife, not a musician, can hear the crackle. ...
