Chorus Brigade - Iconic Japanese Modulation
Astra gives users the most complete circuit emulation of the legendary grey bucket-brigade chorus stompbox. Harnessing a perfectly-emulated circuit - including its preamp section for authentically rich, saturated sounds - users can paint their tones with the thick, luxuriant chorus and wavy vibrato of a famed '70s modulation effect.
Flanger/Doubler - A Rackmount Studio Classic
Classic rackmount studio flanger/doubler is famous for stunning whoosh effects, organic thickening, and a parade of wild sounds that go beyond typical flanger boxes. Astra's Flanger/Dblr effect is the only end-to-end circuit emulation of this ultra-rare unit, capturing all of its original qualities and putting dense, complex flanging/doubling right at your feet.
Trem 65 - Authentic Tube Amp Shake
Trem 65 is a faithful emulation of the optical tube-driven tremolo of '60s American amplifiers. From shimmering ripples to choppy mayhem, UA captured every detail, down to the complex interactions between the light source photoresistor and 12AT7 driver tube. Plus, users can explore further and create their own trem textures with variable sine and square wave settings.
Dual Stereo Modulation Engines for Endless Creativity
Astra's UAFX engine powers separate stereo instances of each modulation effect, thanks to its unique dual-engine processing. It's like having two bucket-brigade hardware units running simultaneously, giving users a full stereo spread of complex, jaw-dropping textures.
A State-of-the-Art Stompbox
With modern, high-powered features like studiograde conversion, dual processing engines, Live/Preset modes, plus selectable true or buffered bypass and tap tempo footswitch mode via the UAFX Control app, Astra Modulation Machine has all the colours needed to paint a sonic masterpiece.
