Explore Multitudes of 1990s-era Metal Malice

Tracing back to the early ’90s, as everything from grunge and thrash to death metal and black metal exploded in popularity, a deluge of distortion took the guitar world by storm. Now, with Universal Audio’s UAFX Anti 1992 High Gain Amp, the seminal sounds of the era’s multidimensional suite of distorted and overdriven tones were carefully captured, modeled, and packaged into a sleek stompbox. Equal parts amp-in-a-box and distortion-deliverance pedal, the UAFX Anti 1992 gives you access to a diverse array of sonic-sculpting tools, with multiple cab-speaker combos, live and preset modes, performance-focused channel settings, a 4-cable mode, and beyond. Plus, the Anti 1992 features a 3-band EQ, onboard noise gate, and a slew of customization options available via the accompanying UAFX Control mobile app (including bonus cabs), immensely expanding your stereo-shaping capabilities. Guitarists agree that the UAFX Anti 1992 masterfully supplies the degrees of distortion that the pedal’s spiritual predecessor — an iconic 120-watt tube head — delivered to define an era. Spanning Scandinavia and Southern California to Seattle and South Florida, an onslaught of early-’90s metal tones is ripe for your pedalboard.

State-of-the-art sound, control, and room modeling

Packing the multidimensional sonics of the 120-watt tone titan that birthed an era of sound into a singular stompbox is no small feat. However, UA knew the UAFX Anti 1992 needed to innovate on the iconic tones of the time. Every setting and sonic configuration utilizes the company’s cutting-edge Dynamic Room Modeling technology, derived from its award-winning OX, to give lifelike depth and dimension to your hallmark tones. Its dual-switch design expands your gain-crafting capabilities with Live and Preset modes accessed from the right-side switch, while the left-side switch can be configured for Live, Gate, or Overdrive operations. Moreover, high and low input routing is available, in addition to four BIAS Modes: Cool, Warm, Cool Choke, and Warm Choke, with additional Post Gain and Room parameters to further hone your tones.

UAFX Control app: expanded sonic-sculpting capabilities

Diving into the Anti 1992’s accompanying UAFX Control app unveils a detailed suite of sound-design possibilities, accessed via Bluetooth pairing with your iOS or Android device. Presets designed by guitarists from Nevermore, Arch Enemy, Tetrarch, and the Black Dahlia Murder supply era-accurate tones from your favorite records — but these album-ready presets are only the beginning! TS-style overdrive and TCE-inspired integrated preamp settings are selected via the app, with a Bright Switch toggle and customizable Noise Gate Threshold, Attack, Release, and Hold values instantly realized, hands-free. A trio of comprehensive Clean, Punch, or Punch+ options expand the Rhythm channel’s capabilities. Punch mode combines the high-voltage lead with the Clean channel’s robust lows, optimized for 7- or 8-string guitars, and a plethora of down-tuned destruction. Punch+ augments this mode by introducing a 10,000-ohm cathode resistor to the rig’s cold clipper circuit, resulting in a multiplicative boon to gain, harmonics, crunch, and character.

Powerful channel-switching control

Each pedal in Universal Audio's UAFX series features a "4-cable" mode accessible via the UAFX Control app, allowing you to bypass your amp's preamp when the pedal is engaged for incredibly realistic tube-style tones. By hooking your pedal up to both your effects loop send/return and the front of amp input, you can instantly switch between your amp's stock tone and your UAFX pedal routed straight into the power amp, effectively adding two extra channels to your amplifier. What's more, Universal Audio designed this feature with multiple pedal setups in mind — you can connect any number of UAFX pedals in this configuration for multichannel madness!
