What a great quick start tutorial to walk through the setup of the pedal. Just exactly the right amount of info to get someone going and not be frustrated with horrible tone.
I was lucky enough to find one during my vacations, since it seems to be out of stock in every european store until 2023.... the bad new is that I only have one Traveler guitar with me during vacation and I still have to wait 3 weeks before coming back home and try the thing myself !!!! but thanks for the great demo, I can't wait to plug a good strat in it !
Thanks for making this! I just picked one up for nights I don't feel like lugging my Fender 1x12 combo, but I was struggling to dial it in. I think this is just what I needed.
I was having some problems using the dream 65 with Apollo but didn't have the canvas in there. Will have to try it. Also having a hard time blasting it with humbuckers, lol.
Oh yeah the canvas can help give it a volume bump, as far as blasting it with humbuckers I find it can get pretty heavy enough for what I play, almost anything except metal.
I have this pedal and only played with it for a little bit. Can I get these same tones if I run it straight into a FRFR powered speaker cab like the head rush? Right now I have it in the effect loop of my solid-state amp. Doesn’t sound as good. Any help will be appreciated
very cool video, thx! have the ruby and the dream 65 ...very helpful tips for dial in the pedals. both pedals are awesome in my opinion but the dream is absolutely incredible because it take pedals so well 😎😉
@@lightfootfx glad you like the dream 😎 there are other great and good sounding modelers on the market like the helix etc. but with the uafx pedals i get a very tube like feeling I think. now I hope they do a marshall (e.g. JCM800 or plexi) 🙄
For some odd reason i feel like this pedal works best with fender strats or telecasters, jazz masters. I need to try to dial in my tones better with my Les Paul. Not saying it’s not designed for anything other than a fender just sounds better to my ears without much adjustments.
I do find humbuckers respond quite differently, usually takes more tweaking probably because of the usual higher output and compression of humbuckers compared to single coils. So there is something to that observation you shared.
Lightfoot, one question, why is the pedal set to the preset side? Does that mean all of the tweaks you are doing, you are doing to the factory preset, which has high gain?
Yeah that causes confusion, when I turn the pedal on it loads my last used saved preset that I created by default. So it was just loading my saved preset that I made and then I just reset it by moving all the knobs.
When I recording With the dream 65, do i need to use linebox? Because I have the same us you. I did a recording without the linebox. But it sound different.
Hi! Nice video! I got a Dream65. I want to know if I can skip the Canvas Stereo (Line Isolator mode) and connect it directly to my interface as 'Line Level Input'. I read the Dream65 output is 500 Ohms, so it should go as 'Line Input' as far as I understood. I watched another video and they also connected it using XLR to a Apollo Twin. Why not use a TRS - TRS into the Apollo? Thanks for the video, it was really helpful!
Hey thanks for watching! The dream does not have balanced outputs from what I read meaning if you run a long connection from a stage to a sound board you would need a DI or Line isolator for the best results because this will convert the signal to balanced so that it can do long cables runs without interference or loss of audio quality. If you are going straight from the dream to your recording interface you can just use normal TS cables without needing a DI or line isolator because the distance is so short you wouldn’t notice any audio issues or interference. Hope that helps!
For this video you're going straight through a Di. Ok, have you tried this pedal through a solid state amp for live playing,, if yes... how are the results vs the Di?
Hey thanks for watching! I have not gone through a solid state amp, but it should work and imagine it would sound pretty true and accurate, similar to playing it through my studio monitors.
Hey man thanks! I just kicked on the dd200 for delay the jet revelation v2 for reverb. Then I believe I switched the Kilt to the red setting for more gain.
Hey thanks for watching! I don’t think it will work with an actual amp speaker cab unless it’s getting amplified first somehow. It will work with an FRFR speaker though or through a recording interface or run it to the sound board with a DI box when playing a gig live and it will come out of the monitors in the house. Hope that helps!
Hey there! The only reason I run the canvas is so my board is xlr friendly. So when I play at a gig I can just plug right into 2 xlr cables that will send a balanced signal to the sound board since it will usually be a long run it will keep my signal from degrading since it's a balanced signal. You could use a DI in that instance as well but the canvas also won't drop decibels like a DI so it sends a full line level signal which just lets me be louder and have a lower noise floor. If you're in a bedroom or studio it's not necessary at all if it's within say 15 feet or so. I just use it in the video because that's just how I'm used to setting it up.
@@lightfootfx thanks for the helpful reply. Our band’s snake isn’t that long - I’m wondering if I could get away without it. Adding another 200+ pedal to a 400 UA Dream and it’s getting pricey. Too bad they didn’t build in balanced outputs like the Simplifier.
@@lanceholland I think regardless you would want an line isolator or atleast a DI box to be safe from phantom power. Also, there is a difference between a line isolator and a DI Box. You won't lose your signal (your volume would remain loud) with a line isolator like the canvas or DISO+ and it'll give an excellent signal to FOH.
Really awesome demo and explanation of all the features! Thanks for taking the time to put together such a detailed review. I sprung for the Simplifier DLX, but I am experiencing a bit of shopper's remorse. I play direct into XLR to the mixer at church so the XLR out and effects loop were a big draw. I just don't get the tone and dynamics that I was hoping for and what I hear in the UAFX Dream 65. Can you do a comparison between the two? I'm on the fence about listing the Simplifier DLX on Reverb and going for the Dream 65.
Thanks for watching, I actually used to have a simplifier dlx and I just couldn't jive with it I ended up switching from that to the iridium and was much happier. I now went to the dream and it's perfect, as good as it gets. I'll see if I can get my hands on another simplifier and do a comparison in the future.
@@lightfootfx what's your application? I'm presently using the Simplifier DLX to FOH through the balanced audio out (XLR). I'm not getting in the sweet spot that I was hoping for. Maybe you can offer some insights if your application is the same. So many users are recording in a home studio and not playing live.
Hi man! great video and pedalboard. I see you've tried both the dream and the ruby. I'm doubting between the two, mainly make ambient/textural music with a lot of pedals on my board too (mainly chase bliss and fairfield circuitry). Which of the two UAFX pedals would you recommend? dream or ruby? wich one 'takes pedals better'?
Hey thanks! If you want the most headroom and like to do ambient stuff and run pretty clean I would go with the dream. It's also the more versatile pedal platform amp. The ruby runs out of headroom pretty quick
Help anyone please. So I’m new to recording and I’m going from my dream 65 in to my volt 2 audio interface. My confusion is my levels. I can increase the gain on my interface into my daw or I can increase the level of output going out of the pedal into my interface. Which would should I be using? I wasn’t sure if there is a difference. Thank you for any help!
Hey there, this is a broad topic but general rule of thumb is if you can get the source to be the level you are wanting to record that is better than turning up the preamp of the device you are recording into. So I would start with turning the volt preamp down as low as it lets you go. Then adjust the dream 65 volume to the level at what your are wanting to record at. At that point if you need more slowly increase the preamp level until you hit the desired volume. I like to record right around where my sound it hitting hitting the yellow on the meters, usually around -9
Thnx had same question. Also i plugged mine into the hiz guitar input on the front of the apollo…is that bad? Whats the difference between the HiZ input on apollo the and the inputs on the back of the apollo when using the dream? And what does the canvas add?
Hi thanks for watching! They are meant to replace an amp so running them into an amp or effects loop will essentially change them into an overdrive pedal possibly. You can run them into an FRFR speaker which would act as an amp in the room if your looking for that sound.
Hey great question, you do not. You can just use a patch cable to go out of the dream and into your interface. The only reason you would want something like the canvas is for long cable runs like going from a stage to a sound board across the room, this prevents cable noise and keeps a strong signal with long cable runs since it lets you use balanced XLR cables.
These videos are so much more helpful than many of the others I’ve seen. I was hoping you could tell me whether or not either the ruby or the dream actually exhibit any issues with pedals? I have quite a large board and I intend to run everything into the front end of one of the two pedals. So far I think I like the sound of The Ruby better, but I’m worried it’ll do something weird with pedals, as people seem to suspect that it will, and there aren’t many videos demonstrating it with pedals. I figure with the output volume being separate from the gain, I wouldn’t need to worry about headroom. If your experience is different please say so. I usually play an orange amp, so I figure British would be more in that ball park than American. Please let me know your thoughts if you could spare the time. Thanks for making these well thought out videos.
Hey man thanks for watching! I have used the iridium, Kemper, hx stuff, and the axe fx 3. This is on the same level as axe fx iii. The modeling is insane on these pedals they respond just as a real amp would with pedals. The biggest thing that impressed me is you can even use a boost pedal and it doesn’t digitally clip like I have experienced with other modelers. Yes if your a British guy I would go with the ruby. Just know you don’t need to turn the gain very high on it and that will give you plenty of headroom to push with your pedals.
The dream is set to an edge of breakup so when I hit a chord harder it goes into minor overdrive, what you are hearing there is a mix of that and then the kilt overdrive I think pushing it over the edge more.
Oh man don't make me choose haha to be honest I am an ac30 guy so probably the ac30 however most people seem to like the dream more, it's definitely the more versatile pedal and easier to dial in I think.
I went with the Dream 65, and its the first modeler i have ever liked. Im impressed with it. Its sounds great. I would love to try the Ruby as well, but if someone was to choose only one or the other, it really just comes down to if you think you would prefer a Fender Deluxe Reverb or a Vox AC30. The Dream u get a good spring reverb, so thats another thing to consider, but if u have a dedicated reverb pedal that u love then u dont really need the spring reverb.
Can anybody give me some help please. Can i use it in front of my clean tube amp? Or do i need a kind of PA amp with full range speakers? I'm old and not much into the emulation game. Thanks in advance and best wishes from Bavaria Germany 🇩🇪
Hey thanks for watching! You could technically run it in from of a clean amp but then it would be like using it as an overdrive. It’s real purpose is to be ran at the end of your pedal board into a sound board or interface this is so that it replaces the guitar amp for recording. For example live you can run it into a DI box and then run that XLR to the soundboard instead of micing an amp. If you recording at home just plug it straight into a audio interface
You could put it in front of a real amp, I just would start by having the output volume set really low and slowly bring it up so you don’t push the amp to hard. These pedals are really designed to replace an amp though.
I'm a noob into all this and I have been wrestling with the concept of the need for XLR or Balanced out when the UAFX pedal(s) is sitting a foot or two away from the Audio Interface. I think for that short of a distance an unbalanced instrument cable will be sufficient for this use case - what do you think? (btw, the background music at the beginning and end is a little too loud and is drowning out your speech)
Yes you are correct, if your near the interface unbalanced is fine, I would only recommend the canvas for live situations where you need to run it to the sound board. Yeah I agree about the audio, I'm keeping it much lower in my newer videos
These are really nice sounding pedals but they are overpriced by quite a bit. @ $320 each by the time you get all the sounds you might need your in the FM9 territory and you would still need to buy effects. Great if your just going for one sound and a few effects.
Sure! That’s fair I think it depends on whether the buyer wants to use real pedals or an all in one like the fm9. For someone that really does not like modeling and doesn’t want to learn it, I think it’s a great product for ease of use if they had to get something and want top quality. Thanks for watching!
@@lightfootfx I personally prefer these pedals to the “all in one“ modelers. I was originally going to get a neural quad cortex - which is FANTASTIC - but ended up choosing these and I’m glad I did. Both are great, but I just wanted to go this route…which is a bit more focused with less amp choices, but still plenty of choices to dial-in almost any sound I could ever want. And they work so great with the rest of my pedal board.
What a great quick start tutorial to walk through the setup of the pedal. Just exactly the right amount of info to get someone going and not be frustrated with horrible tone.
Hey thanks so much for watching! Yeah that’s what I was hoping to achieve.

Goodness me those p90s are DIVINE! I'm in love
I’ve had the pedal for 6 months or so . I find it a tad trebly and it’s a bit a struggle to get a warm sound.
Very good video!
Yeah I can hear that too, I seem to have to bring the treble down quite a bit on it. Thanks for watching!
Try the bright cap clip mod under the boost section. Works really well
Thanks for making this! I just picked one up for nights I don't feel like lugging my Fender 1x12 combo, but I was struggling to dial it in. I think this is just what I needed.

You don’t need a line isolator, you only need that for long runs like going from a stage to the soundboard.
You have to spend time with this pedal to get the most out of it. Well worth it though because the tones are great. The Oxford sounds spot on to me.
Yeah that totally makes sense! I find that too
I just got one a few weeks ago. I couldn’t pass up the $319 Winter Holiday deal they were running.
You are running all your wet effects in front of the Dream, or there´s something in the effects loop ? Great tone btw.

Do I run these pedals in my chain directly into a guitar cab or effects loop of a current amp head? AS to not running through a interface or PA
Hi thanks for watching! They are meant to replace an amp so running them into an amp or effects loop will essentially change them into an overdrive pedal possibly. You can run them into an FRFR speaker which would act as an amp in the room if your looking for that sound.

No the left switch is to use the knobs at their existing or 'live' settings, and the right foot switch is to engage a preset setting
You should try the light touch spring from Reverend in your Bigsbys

To be honest I am not sure, you probably could but they may not have enough output for it.
Too bad Bluetooth doesn't work reliably.

For someone that really does not like modeling and doesn’t want to learn it, I think it’s a great product for ease of use if they had to get something and want top quality. Thanks for watching!
@@lightfootfx I personally prefer these pedals to the “all in one“ modelers. I was originally going to get a neural quad cortex - which is FANTASTIC - but ended up choosing these and I’m glad I did. Both are great, but I just wanted to go this route…which is a bit more focused with less amp choices, but still plenty of choices to dial-in almost any sound I could ever want. And they work so great with the rest of my pedal board.
