Universal Audio has added to its UAFX pedal lineup with the new Lion ’68 Super Lead Amp Emulator Pedal, Flow Vintage Tremolo, Teletronix LA-2A Studio Compressor and Brigade Chorus & Vibrato. Built on dual‑engine processing and UAD modeling, the flagship Lion ’68 Super Lead Amp Emulator delivers the tones of three distinct 100‑watt Marshall “plexi” amplifier setups. With the flip of its model switch, Lion ’68 gives guitarists access to the same tones that fueled decades of artists, taking players from superior cleans to aggressive breakup to full-on roar.
On-Stage’s new MWSD1 Drumsticks deliver the versatility to play instruments ranging from percussion for concert band and orchestra to drum kits for rock, jazz and pop. These sticks’ shortened tapers and small spherical tips produce definition and clarity on snares, toms and cymbals, providing transparent tone that’s ideal for development of technique and musical expression. Crafted from select maple, they possess lightness, flexibility and rebound for quick, agile and articulate playing. These all-purpose sticks come in a compact brick of 12 pairs, providing a large supply of 24 sticks that’s easy to store and transport.
