Up for sale is my incredibly rare, collector-grade, complete-in-box (CIB) Yamaha MagicStomp UB99 MK2 Stereo Multi-Effect Processor (ver. 2.10).

The pedal has been thoroughly tested. The footswitches click perfectly, the display backlight is sharp and legible, and all three parameter pots turn smoothly without static.

If you are looking at this, you already know the legacy. This pedal features a 32-bit DSP engine pulled from Yamaha's digital mixing console architecture, offering the legendary SPX90 Symphonic chorus, pristine delays, and lush reverse reverbs.

Famously utilized by Allan Holdsworth for his signature 8-delay parallel multi-tap soundscapes, it remains a holy grail machine for ambient, dream-pop, and shoegaze guitarists. This is the highly sought-after MK2 version, which includes the updated backlit display, built-in headphone jack, and on-board patch editing navigation.

Finding a MagicStomp on the used market is common, but finding a complete collector-grade, complete-in-box (CIB) like this is exceptionally rare. Please review photos for condition details. Sold as-described. Feel free to message me with any questions!

Cables & Media Accessory: The original factory USB connector cable alongside the initial software installation CD-ROM.

PROS

The "MK2" Difference: The MK2 version added a much-needed headphone jack, an improved backlit LCD display, and on-board patch editing capabilities that the original MK1 variant lacked.

  • 8 parallel digital delays offer vast soundscapes
  • Comparable to iconic 80s and 90s rack units for delay sounds
  • Enhances tone quality, suitable for guitars like Fender Strat
  • Offers a wide range of effects including chorus, delay, reverb, flanger
  • Highly programmable, allowing for custom sound shaping
  • Transparent sound integration, becoming part of the amp's output
  • Extensive online patch library for sound customization
  • Versatile, replaces multiple modulation pedals with a single unit
  • Responsive to playing dynamics
  • Lightweight and portable for gigs

CONS

  • To unlock its true potential, the pedal requires a USB connection to a computer for deep patch editing. However, the official editing software was built for vintage operating systems like Windows XP. Modern users rely on community-made software patches and active forum workarounds to manage presets.
  • If you plan on hooking it up to a computer to load custom patches (like the famous Allan Holdsworth or Slowdive "Soft Focus" presets), don't install the outdated software on the CD-ROM. Instead, head over to modern guitar forums or GitHub to download community-updated, open-source editors that work seamlessly with modern operating systems
