Tweed Amp Tones For Your DAW

Universal Audio Inc. (UA) has introduced UAD Woodrow '55 Instrument Amplifier, a UAD plug-in that they say gives you the authentic tone of the American tweed guitar amp that shaped the sound of rock 'n' roll, blues, and soul music.

Lev Perrey, VP of Product at Universal Audio, told us, "This is the amp that defined what electric guitar sounds like - from the first fuzzed-out rock records to today's alt-country and Americana. With UAD Woodrow '55, we've made that iconic tone accessible to anyone producing music in the box."

Here's more details direct from the company...

Available natively, the Woodrow '55 plug-in captures every nuance of the iconic amp, giving players the punchy cleans and rich tube-driven overdrive made famous by artists from Chuck Berry and Neil Young to modern players like Jason Isbell, Joe Bonamassa, and Ariel Posen.

Built upon Universal Audio's industry-leading amp modeling and component-llevel circuit analysis, UAD Woodrow '55 puts a world-class studio amp with expertly paired mic/speaker cabinets at your fingertips - no mics, pedals, or live room required.
