It didn't sound exactly right to me at first. I had a friend let me borrow one, along with the Dream and Lion. Then I got to try the other cabs. The first of the extra cabs you get from registering is an ac15 cabinet mic'd with an SM57. That's the one that made me a believer as it sounds and acts identical to my ac15 now. It's uncanny. I did an A/B test with the Ruby using the ac15 cab, and my AC15 with a modern alnico blue into a torpedo captor, with a V30 cab sim. They were so close in that way that V30's sound like Blue's sound like Greens. There really isn't a huge difference between them. Close enough that if I did the work and hooked up an SM57 and used the blue in the AC15, I'm sure it's the same. To say this makes recording live guitar easier is an understatement. It's an important thing to understand about the Ruby though. I did try turning off their cab sim, and using my own after it. Suddenly it wasn't my AC15 anymore. The cab sims are a HUGE part of the sound in the Ruby. It's more than just a speaker choice. It's part of the output tube sound also. That said, it really loves BB style pedals and fuzz pedals. It loves the BE-OD and Suhr Riot. It adores all the fuzzes from EHX. The germanium boost on the normal channel is godly good. So you get a free one. It does mono in, stereo out, which is convenient for hooking up things. Their "room" delay people keep calling a reverb is ok, but it just made me want a better one. So I put a White Tape after it. Now i can make the room whatever size and shape I want. The Epitome seemed perfect for the Ruby since they are both flawless emulations. It's all the effects I need, other than an obnoxious phaser that can be in front of it. I am only using the Normal channel. This is my perfect pedal host. I might use the TB channel someday, but throwing some light chorus and reverb on the normal channel output sounds so good clean. It's a sound that makes you want to sell every fender amp you own. Brad Paisley could tell ya. You almost don't want to "buck hum" with it. The best sounds shine with hot single coils. The best complement I can pay a product is buying a backup. Well here I am buying one. Now that said... The Dream is outstanding. It might even be a better emulation. it's definitely a better pedal host, being more transparent with the cleans. You actually hear your pedals. Vox as a pedal host is accepting that you are going to get half your grit from the amp. You have to really want and like that sound. So if this is your first rodeo, and you are specifically looking for a pedal host, maybe get the Dream 65 instead or first. You get a fuller tone stack also, and a GODLY spring reverb that somehow sounds better than the real thing. I'm still "borrowing" one of those but I'm a weak man. The Lion, I love for what it is. it's clean tones are amazing. But I don't love the SLP sound enough to want it over vox + be-od, and I won't give up my vox cleans. That said, the Lion is probably the best choice for a gigging musician. It's the most versatile out of the box with nothing added. The new one, the Anti, I'm definitely snapping up at some point. So to wrap up, the tech works. It's kind of stunning. You can forget it's not the real thing. I've done it a few times. Turned to my left and spun a knob on my real AC15 then laughed at myself.

Hands down the best guitar amp emulation I've ever played. The same build quality you expect when you buy a Universal audio product. Sturdy. This pedal is bigger than it seems in the pictures. the knobs are the actual size of real amp knobs if that gives any context. I'm an industry professional and have a decade of experience with guitar amps and tone. It takes some figuring out, but if you take the time to dive deep it's brilliant. The UI is pretty easy to understand, and the app helps with saving presets. My only complaint is that you can't control the pedal with the app. It would be nice to fine tune. Great work, UA!

Sounds great, very Voxy. Great clean tones. Excellent tremolo. Vox overdrive can be over the top, so I run it near breakup with a drive pedal in front of it. The UA Dream pedal it also incredible if Fender Deluxe sounds are your thing.

Responds like an amp. Cleans up nicely with your guitar's volume knob. Unlike the other two UA amp modelers, Ruby 63's got enough gain to be used as a stand alone overdrive/dist as well. I use the preset button as a volume booster. Works like a charm and pairs well with other pedals too – Happy user here!

POSITIVES: This is literally the best attempt at a Vox AC30 emulation I’ve ever come across. I’ve gotten increasingly good results from Helix and (now) Tonex captures, but this is another level above that. I was intrigued by the Dream ’65 because I really loved the boosts and reverbs offered in that pedal, as well. However, playing the two side by side, I just felt like the Ruby ’63 did a more notable job of nailing the idiosyncrasies of this classic amp. The Brilliant (Top Boost) channel really shines in particular. I’ve watched many review demos of both the Ruby and Dream, but there’s a dynamic “feel” to actually playing these pedals that cannot come across until you’ve tried one. For a pedal that only really does “one thing”, there’s a lot of tonal variety on tap. It offers three amp “channels”, though Normal and Vibrato are pretty similar in terms of base tones. You get three different types of boost tied to each of those channels. You get a room reverb, which is a subtle effect by design, but is much appreciated here. And then, if you want to further explore other tonal options, you get 3 speaker cabinets, plus an additional 3 that you unlock by registering the device. These include classic Bulldog and Alnico Blue speakers, plus Marshall and Matchless cabs for a different flavor. One thing to note: the controls are meant to be function exactly as they do on an AC30. So, the Bass and Treble knobs are wired in reverse, and are almost like a roll-off as you turn them up. The “Cut” knob is also there, and is such a key feature of this amp. Especially on the Brilliant channel, the tones can get exceptionally bright and borderline harsh. But what makes the AC30 so unique is your ability to dial in a jangly, expressive clean or slightly-broken tone and roll off just enough of the high end to keep things tame and useable. The Ruby ’63 has stereo inputs and outputs, which is important for a how a lot of people use this amp. I’m mostly running it in mono, but I appreciate the functionality and the overall build quality of the device, which certainly feels premium, even compared to your run-of-the-mill $200 “boutique”. Finally, emerging as one of my favorite things about the Ruby ’63 is how well it works with other pedals. I’ve been gradually selling off drive pedals over the years as modelers like the Helix have made it excessive and unnecessary to hold on to so much (unused) gear. But I’ve kept a lot of my favorites, and it’s amazing how great it sounds with TS and Klon variants. Even on an amp (AC30) with a reputation for being finnicky with some pedals. NEGATIVES: I think the primary drawback of the Ruby ’63 is the price. At a street price usually around $399, that’s just a big ask for a pedal that is primarily handling amp emulation. I have started to see the pedal on sale here and there, and that (along with some trade-in value) prompted me to bite the bullet and try it out. The Ruby ’63 – and all of the UAFX pedals is sorely missing a headphone jack. It just seems like such a weird omission for what could be an elite practice tool, especially considering it also has a built-in room reverb. The pedal also doesn’t have MIDI, though I was less bothered by that as I enjoy using the pedal with the tactile sensation of adjusting real “amp” knobs. Finally, it’s a bit cheap on their part not to include a power supply at this price point. Yes, many of us have power supplies laying around, but with a power consumption of 400mA, that’s more than twice what a standard BOSS power supply offers, and makes it incompatible with even a lot of the popular power supplies for pedalboards. Other users have commented on issues getting the phone app and Bluetooth to connect, but I did not experience these problems. Actually, I was excited about the preset idea to check out what the pedal can do, but now that I own it, I don’t find the app useful enough to be something I’m using with the pedal regularly. SUMMARY: The Ruby ’63 probably isn’t for everyone. Based on price alone, I didn’t necessarily think it would be for me. It’s not the only good option for getting quality AC30 tones, and if you only had a few hundred dollars to spend on ALL of your gear, your money would be better spent on a modeler with more functionality (Helix; Pod Go; BOSS GT1000 CORE; etc.). However, if the AC30 sound is particularly important to you, and you want the best digital recreation of how that amps sounds and feels to dial in, this is it. U2’s The Edge, as far as I know, does not have an endorsement relationship with UAFX. But it was recently revealed that The Edge had switched to the Ruby 63’ (and a few other UAFX pedals) to handle amp tones for the band’s residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas in late 2023. If it’s good enough for someone as obsessive about effects and the Vox AC30 sound as The Edge, it’s good enough for me. Maybe someday we’ll get a V2 of these pedals filling some of the missing features, but “as is”, the Ruby ’63 is a near-perfect recreation of a classic amp too big, expensive, and loud for me to ever actually own.

Had a good tone but the noise was unbearable. I tried several things to quite it down and nothing worked. I returned it and bought another popular amp/cab simulator and had no noise at all using the same setup. If they can get the noise issues fixed this would be a good product. This was from 2023 for future reference.
