Yamaha Review: UB99 / Magic Stomp

History:

Purchase: bought it to use live & leave my PODxt rig at home in my studio purchased at Long & McQuade (Burlington, Canada), paid $275 Cdn for it

What I Like About This Yamaha UB99 / Magic Stomp: compact, has many of the best features of my UD Stomp, AG section sounds stellar, amp lead tones are very real & warm, having been recording with it all day today, it's very present & clear, sits extremely well in the mix

What I Do NOT Like About The Yamaha UB99 / Magic Stomp: USB only (no MIDI I/O), Mac software not working yet, it's flaky, PC software works perfectly though

Yamaha UB99 / Magic Stomp Quality Rating: solid metal, quality is excellent

Review Summary: nice addition to my PODxt with Shjortbaord & Yamaha UD Stomp, the only box I'll take with me out of my studio when I play live, works very well with my Godin Flat Five X & Larrivee D-03Koa guitars

Rating of this Yamaha product: 5
