Universal Audio Dream 65 - Is this the best Fender style amp/cab pedal I've ever tried? - IT DRIPS!

Dream 65: imp.i114863.ne...
Ruby: imp.i114863.ne...
Woodrow: imp.i114863.ne...
Sweetwater sent me all the new UA amp/cab sim pedals to check out, the Ruby and Woodrow are fine, I don't really connect with those style of of amps in general. BUT OMG THE DREAM 65 IS EVERYTHING IVE EVER WANTED IN A FENDER STYLE AMP PEDAL! These were all loaners but I'm 100% getting one for myself and likely selling off most of my other amp/cab pedals.

Hey Ryan!! Awesome vid!! Thanks for showcasing the pedals so masterfully!

[@Bryan-ct2qm]

He's definitely sold me.

[@loopmasta5104]

It's really hard to find a good demo about the Dream 65 but this one is by far one of the better ones. Thanks a lot for that.

[@tjnugent62]

The good fellows at UA did he best job imaginable. This platform they have developed can do any amp. They picked 3 iconic amps. Incredible job on the demo as well.

[@dimensionstomorrow]

I have an Iridium and a Flint as well as a real 1970s Vibrochamp and Fender spring reverb tank, so it’s hard to justify, but man this thing sounds so good. The Fender sound is my sound, so I can definitely see myself caving. Maybe I can last until Christmas. Lol.

[@johnnebauer436]

I watched this demo,and purchased one immediately. What a fantastic pedal.

[@JohannesLabusch]

Guys guys guys I'm so excited, I'm gonna leave this comment under every Dream65 review I can find. No idea why they don't advertise this more clearly, but you CAN indeed use headphones with it. I bought a little 8$ adapter cable (Y-cable, two quarter inch inputs to one mini output), and it drives my Sennheisers (HD25) fine. No idea if there are cans this won't work with, but it worked great for me.

[@therewasascene]

Leave it to UA to finally drop some really good blackface cleans in a box. To me it seems like the most difficult sound to emulate well. Especially for the price.

[@therewasascene]

@YouStink lol

[@Mini1124]

I love how choppy/hard clipping the tremolo is in the Dream, sounds fantastic. Reminds me of the EQD Hummingbird more than anything else.

These pedals sound great, especially the Dream 65 and Woodrow. Great for recording and maybe live as well (you can never tell that until you try it). I expect these pedals to be a big hit. I can tell this is an honest from the heart appraisal, the wide eyes and the salivation! :)

[@danielwilliams9634]

Having seen Sweetwater and Andy's demos of these pedals, I couldn't wait to see you play the 65 because I knew you'd turn into a teenager again with joy. They should give you one free just for how the pedal made you.

Ryan after watching your review I bought one myself this week . It's on it way thanks for the great review!

[@jamescornett6477]

Great job on the Dream 65. Amazing model of the most recorded amp in history. You need to play with the Ruby some more. The AC30 was a unique and brilliant design. Folks need not be afraid to crank the treble and/or bass controls to the extremes then adjust the cut control to compensate. Every control on those amps is important to the voicing. You'd be surprised how pristine and how much usable overdrive one can get from an AC30. Hank Marvin with the Shadows got amazing tones from the AC30. Brain May, the Beatles, and even Slash recorded with this classic amplifier.

[@leeoffender8406]

Love all the current direct recording technology. It really sounds authentic. So simple too. Don't get me wrong, still love my combos for everything but recording, but sure aint missing all the fuss associated w/ mic placement and isolation.

[@davidmaraisthecampfireguit2596]

Brilliant demo. Trust UA to truly capture the tonal essence of these amplifiers. When they announced they were moving into pedals, I was skeptical. Not any more. I own the Starlight, Astra and Golden pedals after being blown away when I demoed them. I predicted that they would bring out some amp sim pedals soon, but I wasn't expecting them to be released this quickly and I certainly wasn't expecting them to sound so gorgeous. Wow. The only problem is I have to save up $1200 for these three delightful musketeers!

My ear took me to the 65 Dream too. Mine will be here Friday! Great review. And man the spring reverb is freaky spot on!

[@frankglad2989]

I got the Dream and the Ruby. I love the AC-30 and really think the Ruby will be great, but like you...the Dream was so wonderful I haven't gotten past it. I play in a band that covers 60's thru 90's and the Dream blows away my Helix (even though I love my Helix). As soon as I plugged up the Dream at rehearsal the keyboard player jumped around his keys and said that my sound was wonderful!! It is really nice to have an emulation pedal that does one thing great and has pots similar to a real amp.

[@rogerYT69]

have also a helix that i like and now buyed the ruby and the dream ...i am absolute blown away how the uafx pedals sound and feel ...you can get very good sounds out of the helix but the feel is a lot more tube like with the uafx pedals and they also take pedals very well 😉

[@forbinelectro-sonic4965]

Thank you so much for this video. I actually wanted the Woodrow because I play '60s style soul and wanted something that got me closer to that Steve Cropper/Stax tone. Granted, he used a Harvard, not a Deluxe. But every video I watched on it was guys with strats, or some kind of humbucker pickup equipped guitar, cranking the Woodrow up and complaining about how hard it is to get a sound out of it, and saying how limited it is and none of the videos showed me what I wanted and so I gave up and decided I'd watch a few Dream 65 videos and most likely I'd get that. The first I watched was from Sweetwater, and he played enough clean stuff that I was starting to think "yeah...maybe". Yours was the second one I played and 5 minutes in you sold me. I was down. I mean, I kept watching but after five minutes I opened another tab and dropped that in a cart to buy online. I kept watching more out of curiosity but I was already sold. But then you switched to the Tele (which is what I use mostly) and at 44:02, you did a quick cut in your edit and suddenly you started playing something that sounded like the intro to Sam & Dave's "Soul Man" and for about 15 seconds you played me exactly what I wanted to hear in all those other Woodrow videos. Of course then you went like all the others and kept trying to play with the dirt. But that's cool. That's you. But you did change my mind and now the Dream 65 is something I'll look into buying later. The Woodrow's in the cart and for that I thank you again.

[@richnewman]

I'm sold. Just got the Dream at Sweetwater. Gonna let me get all my Fender tonez without having to mic up the Twin Reverb. Such a good amp in a box.

Not to mention carrying that heavy-assed amp around.

Dude! I'm loving it! Just in time for Sweetwater's Memorial Day weekend sale! I wish I had the money for even the sale price!

[@faben70]

At last, something that really sounds way better than an American Sound + a decent IR! 😁

[@Michael_Is_Avg]

I am pretty happy with my Walrus ACS1, but I always just have them on the Fender setting and don't utilize the different cabs/amp types on the separate outputs. Having this guy where it focuses on being the best fender amp in the box thing seems like a better fit. Having an Apollo X4 interface, I've been really impressed with everything UA I've touched from the interface to UAD plug-in stuff. Wasn't sure how you might compare the two? I also really appreciate how you showed it before drives. I felt my amp sim was about gassed out, but that is now apparently been completely fucked and it's all your fault. Great vid and will have to try this out soon.

[@GNeuman]

Fantastic review, love your enthusiasm!

[@charliebakken2074]

I have a RI Fender Twin Reverb and a late 70s Fender Dual Showman Reverb head. This is the first stomp box that actually comes pretty close to the sound of these amps. And it doesn’t weigh 65 pounds or more. I think it’d be a lot easier to get up and down my basement stairs.

[@doctorbooyahwho]

As soon as the videos started rolling out for these pedals; I came here for you surfy take on the dream pedal. So awesome. So surf. So fun. It warms my frigid ghoulish heart.

Holy shit man that 65 sounds amazing! So drippy on that reverb.

[@DadRockAndGuitars]

43:40 "I'm sure someone out there loves that sound...." ✋ You may have just sold me on the Woodrow 😅

[@chrisbardolph]

The Ruby really requires some tweaking - the EQ knobs work in reverse, so dialing them back gives you more clarity and top end.

[@ivankachkovski]

Sounds awesome! Not to complain or anything but if it had a headphone out, it would be the most magic practice device!

[@MRMClips]

FYI, Universal Audio recommends plugging both male ends of this cable into the two stereo outputs, then low impedance headphones into the female port of the cable. I’ve done this with my Woodrow ‘55 and it works great. www.amazon.com/dp/B07WSNGLG7?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_JNNC5KKT4A3B6ARFA0G7

Nice to hear you so deep in your element. There is something about the "Surf" sound that is extremely conducive to exploring and composing. The pedal is appropriately named the Dream. 👏

I’m pretty sure UA have done a great job, because these pedals nail all the tonal aspects for which I would go for a Marshall over any of the amps modeled by them.

Maybe they come up with a break-out box of sorts for these (i.e. a small line mixer with switchable 76 compressor, „vintage mode“ (Neve sim) and DI, thru and HP Out), it will be $399 hahaha @UA you heard it here first, guys!

[@a.a486]

no need if you record with interface what have headphone output. For live gig i use real fender amps and left my dream pedal at home sleeping.

[@JoshBattershell]

I believe these are more meant to be direct amp replacements. They’re kinda meant to be used like you would a tube amp

[@NeZversSounds]

They sound phenomenal. Woodrow would be amazing for stoner rock/ metal. I see why you love the Dream and I'd choose it as my fav too. The price is in a category where I'd just buy HX stomp (I already have it) or any other multi-effect processor. Mind I'm from Latvia where price comes before quality. I don't know if that emulation is analog or digital. With analog emulation, the price could be justified.

[@ezrashanti]

All digital, but really all that matters is getting the sound that you like.

[@HeelBJC]

This stuff really makes me reconsider my rig. I have a Deluxe Reverb and AC30 that I can't put above 3 or my neighbors flip their shit, so I'm mostly playing into a Boss Waza tube amp expander, often just with headphones. It's so much stuff. And like $3000 if I sold it.... When this sounds as good as it does, it's beyond difficult for me to justify all that stuff when I only record, no gigs.

[@drewnorth3816]

Couldn't agree with you more!

[@davelanciani-dimaensionx]

Absolutely. I haven't played a gig in years, and only record at home. Why not go direct when it sounds good? Who cares if it isn't an "authentic" amp. Who knows other than you?

[@stephanematis]

I have Traynor and my Princeton into some doodads attenuator or even re-amp setup just to enjoy them without neighbours going bonkers. This is a killer tool. I'll pump it into the PC, or perhaps some Class-D headphone amp. Ordered.

[@PuRe_AdDicT]

I'm also looking at a tube amp in the corner that would cover the asking price for a Dream and a Marshall flavour if they released it...

[@cameronspears1386]

The HX Stomp offers this and so much more, just to toss another wrench in. That little box replaced an entire rig.

[@dieg000n]

For those who tried the Dream 65: having tried with pedals, I think it only sounds good when the volume is 9h or below. Above 9h, you start to get a Fender amp distortion, which sounds nice by it's own, but I think it "modifies" the sound of the other pedal too much (I've tried Origin Revival drive compact, Jackson Audio Golden Boy and a RAt clone). Do you guys experienced something like that?

[@ezrashanti]

Well I think you would always want to put the other pedals before this one, at least for the most part.

[@RocktCityTim]

Excellent deep dive! Thanks, Ryan.

[@musicmann1967]

The English guy in the Sweetwater video did a much better job with the Ruby. It sounds very good there, although he wasn't using ANY Fender guitars, which is weird demo-ing an amp thats emulating a Vox!. You'd never know how good the Ruby is from this demo here. I have a feeling that best demo of the Ruby is yet to come. The Dream 65 sounds great in the demos I've seen. I have to say, It's very tempting to go this route (DSP models) when recording. So much simpler.

[@EricCoomerMusic]

Ha! At 2:33 when you look at your amps like, “Do I even need you?”

[@ericbush1279]

May be a dumb question, but do you just plug in a pedal like this to any old amp (I have a spark) just as you would any other pedal, or what do people typically play these amp modelers through?

[@p.r.ruthie803]

Is not supposed to go thru a real amp. For casually players, headphone output or audio interface on computer. For people bands, go to PA system or a FRFR (flat response) speaker that can even look like an amp.

[@aureliusandthespiral]

Yes, you can plug straight in, but if connecting to an amp it is preferable to plug in the fx loop. 4 wire method. The pedal is more to be an amp in itself for the studio or plugging into a pa/mixer/headphone pre.

[@markhenri1131]

Great video. It’s a lot like Alice In Wonderland-the first half soars, the second half just doesn’t lift off. I noticed that you misunderstood the tone controls on the Ruby. They cut when turned clockwise. You had all the treble rolled off when you when trying cabs and I could tell it messed with your ears. I would recut the video and try again on a fresh day with each pedal. In other words, make this a three part series. Even if you don’t spend a lot of time on the others it’s cool because the Dream65 portion was outstanding.

This has completely knocked me out. Early Christmas present anyone? ha ha. Thanks for the great demo Ryan!

It was really nice to see how much you enjoyed playing through it, the last time I checked isn't guitar playing supposed to be a pleasure as well as out and out fun?

All of the different reverbs are a bit underwhelming, often no real sustain and I spend ridiculous amounts of time tweaking tones. Would rather just play you know?

399 is a lot for a pedal but relatively it's fairly priced along with the competition. The strymon iridium, boss ir 200 and the walrus audio acs1 are all 399, with the "cheaper" option being the nux amp academy.

[@edryba4867]

Man, that Jazzmaster really DOES sound great in a clean setting, doesn’t it? You can definitely hear when you finger it sloppy and the frets buzz (and I don’t mean an electrical buzz of any kind). Sounds just like my hot-Rodded (by a stellar Luthier) M.I.M. 1999 Strat, plugged into the actual amp. And the humbuckers? Direct hit! Your D.I. setup is the next best thing to being somewhere. And you’re 100% right about the first pedal. You’d swear it was an impossibly quiet (no noise) blackface Fender ‘65 Super Reverb amp - just like the real one IN 1965 sounded. So whoever “voiced” this pedal knew precisely what they were shooting for, and hit the bull’s-eye throughout. The trouble is, if it says “UA” on it, it’s priced at roughly DOUBLE what I’d pay for it. It’s just like the 1176 compressor/limiter. For the price of ONE UA 1176, I got TWO of Warm Audio’s version of the device. Warm does a TERRIFIC job with their versions of equipment - I have 50 years of experience with the UA 1176, and Warm’s version is an exact duplicate of it. I’ll probably buy one of these pedals… when Warm Audio makes one. The “Ruby” and the “Woodrow” pedals kick butt (the room simulations are right on the money) as much as the “Dream” does, especially when you pulled out the Tele toward the end. I would have liked to hear the Tele through the “Dream”, though. All in all, KILLER job on this review!

[@gordonlewis7570]

Although I enjoyed the music, tones, and explanations, it would help if the reviewer had been more explicit about the signal chain he was using. It wasn't clear whether he was playing the pedal direct to a DAW or using the pedal in-between the guitar and some other amplifier with its own preamp, power amp, and speaker. If the latter, then it would help to know what amp and speaker were and how the amp was set. For the benefit of any newbies, the UA Dream 65 is not the type of amp that can power a speaker cabinet; it's a pedal that >simulates< the sounds of an amp connected to a speaker cabinet.

Why is there an English greenback speaker that did not exist in the USA in 1965 Fender type pedal and no JBL D120F (F for Fender) which did exist and was a Fender option in the 1960s?
