Classic Modulation done right! UA Astra Review

[@abcrx32j]

The font on this makes it look like it's made by SEGA. Perfect for weird covers of Sonic the hedgehog ost

[@RockNoTieneLaCulpa]

Great song! As always Good Job! Cheers from Mexico!

[@GoodVibeTribe]

Very good review!

[@kiivje]

Wow what a great vocal!

[@thenorthwoodsbassist2641]

Thanks for demonstrating some useable settings. I’ve watched a few demos that only showed extreme sounds.

[@BeachCreatures]

Love the song. Great job

[@stephengabree]

Awesome tune!!!🎸

[@joeymiller2633]

i love your honesty, and its the same way i feel , expressed through you. but sounds good, i will give it that. but that's it

[@mikedr1549]

I came back again just to hear the opening song. Wonderful!

[@planetpjr]

I am digging this tune. It's really cool no matter what mod pedal you use.

[@RaxFx]

I feel the Astra is the one where the lack of more presets hurts the most.

[@shckltnebay]

and your wallet

[@johncruz9357]

Agreed..

[@christopherecatalano]

@@shckltnebay, every pedal does this to me🤣

[@markmurphy5486]

Yeah, I would buy this in a shot but only one preset is a bit of a deal breaker.. hopefully they'll implement via a firmware update.

When you got to that one part where you're using the phase 90 sound, I literally said the same thing you did. Love hurts You didn't know the second line but it's love scars I believe..
It's funny because like I can relate to you on so many levels when it comes to playing guitar... It's fucking hysterical right when you played that sound I was thinking the exact same thing. That's probably why I watch this channel so much. A lot of the stuff you do is what I would do if I had the product to demo with the equipment you have. I wish I knew half the shit you know about sound! You are a badass professional my friend! I'm getting the Astra tomorrow. Peace my friend...

[@trenthogan4212]

If they even had a second preset on the right, perhaps an orange colour for the second preset, it would be so much more useful. Two sounds are limited, but that 3rd would add so much more usefulness live.

[@thenorthwoodsbassist2641]

These are all effects that I would use in any single night. I dread the fact that I would have to adjust the settings every time I want to switch effects. I know that presets are available, but the last thing I would need is for the Bluetooth to fail in the middle of a set.

[@Rikamortis6stringer]

I totally agree with you. I don't give a shit what it sounds like as long as it sounds good to me and I get inspired and I can make music with it. I also care how easy it is to get the sounds they're better not be a bunch of sub menus and menus and complicated shit to Wade through. As long as it's reasonable and I can get a few good sounds out of it and use it to color a little bit or for certain parts of songs then it's all good. I think that's why I watch this channel because you and me agree on pretty much everything so far. Thanks again Henning. I think I am going to get all three I'm getting the delay first My drummer has been working there for a couple years. He gets 2/3 off! Ttyl😊

[@CheddarKungPao]

For the Tremolo Shape is on Intensity and the Intensity is on Shade.

[@EytschPi42]

but WHY?

[@kingfisher7960]

tHAT SONG IS GREAT! And thats a hell of a cat at the end!

I said this yesterday and my cat died today. I love a and miss him so much already. Chester 2003-2021 love you my boy.

[@simononeill941]

How did you find UAFX Dharma Trem and Phaser X90 compared to analog counterparts? I have a Walrus Monument v2 harmonic tremolo and a Jam Pedals Ripple phaser and was wondering how the Astra compares to analog purely for compactness.
Love the reviews!!

[@samuraisaint2360]

Just bought one new for $250 on eBay , cheaper then buying a MXR 126 to complete my Dimebag rig. Now just have to figure out his settings

I've owned it for a couple of months and it's rich and lush.
It's not perfect but it's close.

[@gianlorenzo.mungiovino]

Hi, is it possible to power it with a 300 mA separate outlet, or I'll run into problems?

[@RJW14]

Dharma Trem? Is that a nod to good ole Buck? :)

[@randysutton2120]

These do sound great, but, at that price, I'm probably going with Chase Bliss or Strymon...

I've only bought 1 digital pedal, a used 1985 Boss DD-2 Digital Delay. I have no other experience with modern digital pedals. I've got a question and was wondering if somebody could help me here. I'm interested in the UA Astra but heard digital pedals usually have a shelf life of 8-10 years. Can somebody tell me if this applies to the Astra? I'm very interested in this pedals tones but would like to have this beastly pedal for at least 20 years. Does anybody know if the parts in these pedal are good enough to last that long? Any help/reply is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

[@EytschPi42]

I am pretty sure the parts will last that long!

[@randomonlineactivity]

@@EytschPi42 Thank God I checked my comment! That darn RUclips didn't notify me. Hearing that eases some of my qualms. I'll go check this beauty out at my local music store thanks. It's tones are too good to pass up even if they only last 8-10 years--which I hope not. Thank you!

[@danec1384]

@@randomonlineactivity keep using the dd2! One of the best sounding digital delay pedals of all time IMO

[@randomonlineactivity]

@@danec1384 it really is but it sucks the life out of batteries superquick. I always use it with the Boss power supply.

In the UK a pigeon is described as a "flying Rat" so a pigeon's arse?
Are you going to anything this evening to celebrate may morning tonight or tomorrow? Or have they all been called off? I used to go to en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Morning but "they" have cancelled it again. If you ever get a chance you should come!!

[@jameshalbert181]

Just a thought ,you could do a parody of hair of the dog but call it ass of the rat.

[@kostis6]

Can I combine chorus and tremolo with the astra or do I have to buy 2 units?

[@EytschPi42]

you'd need 2

[@kostis6]

Thanks! I love your sense of humor ;)

[@joeymiller2633]

no plans on changing or releasing individual pedals anytime as far as the feedback i got from universal audio. not for live guys buy maybe if you pay more. studio id say for shure

[@illgottengains1314]

I would love the 3 pedals in 1 multi-fx unit for a bit less cash... I fcking hate pedal boards and Velcro and power supplies and cables and

Wampler Terraform EOM

[@holybrad]

are you saying this is better or worse than the Terraform?

[@shckltnebay]

@@holybrad I've only had a golden reverberator so I really shouldn't be commenting on the Astra. I ended up not keeping the terraform I was really looking for the best course I could find and ended up with the Catalina and the inspire also have a Flint

For a modulation that lacks midi at this price point makes it a no for me .

UA: are you listening? Improve your Bluetooth and get Midi. Until that time, stop wasting people’s time.
