LUNA Studio

Turn your ideas into records.
  • Smart Tools. Create music with cutting-edge tools like chord extraction and lyric transcription, powered by Moises.
  • ARA Integration. Edit, mix, and master directly in the timeline with tools like Melodyne, VoiceAssist, and Wavelab Go.
  • UAD Plug-Ins. Get the same plug-ins used by chart-topping artists for decades.
  • LUNA Extensions. Mix with built-in tape and console emulations from API, Studer, and Ampex.
  • Works with Any Audio Interface. Accelerated on Apollo and Volt.

LUNA Play

Start creating in seconds.

LUNA Play is a fast new way to record. Like a voice memo app designed just for making music, it automatically detects your instrument, sets levels, and suggests great presets with UAD plug-ins. You can isolate tracks and jam along with songs or capture your original ideas.

The Universal Audio Legacy

Seven decades of inspiring sound.

Founded in 1958, Universal Audio is synonymous with innovative recording products. Our founder, Bill Putnam Sr., was a favorite engineer of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, and Ray Charles. And his innovations like the modular mixing console, 1176 compressor, and artificial reverb have shaped the sound of countless records. That legacy lives in every UAD plug-in.

We've spent more than 30 years modeling the world's most coveted studio gear, working with original manufacturers and using their exact schematics, golden units, and experienced ears. The result is the most authentic and musical plug-in collection in the industry.

To say that UAD plug-ins are a big part of my sound would be an understatement. In Spark Studio, you have everything you need to do a professional mix from top to bottom.

Flume, ODESZA, Sabrina Carpenter

My go-to vocal chain is: Neve 1073 for tone shaping, followed by the LA-2A Silver for smooth leveling, then the Capitol Chambers for rich depth.

Karriem Riggins

Common, J Dilla, Kaytranada

I’m a bit obsessed with the Fairchild 670. You can put it on almost any mix bus and it instantly adds the perfect touch of "analog" glue!

Erin Tonkon

David Bowie, Grace Ives

Just like the DSP versions, the Spark plug‑ins do an excellent job of bringing the character of the hardware they are emulating.

UAD Spark Studio provides a comprehensive tool-kit with a wide variety of preamps, EQs, compressors, channel strips, amp sims, tape machines, virtual instruments and a suite of time-based effects...In other words, you’ve got all your bases covered and then some!

The plug-ins and instruments in UAD Spark Studio are all undoubtedly superb. If you don’t already have these tools, this is a fantastic way to access and explore some exceptional analogue plug-ins and find out what all the fuss is about.

No one else gives you a library this comprehensive with this level of high-quality modeling. It’s really like having a research library of classic signal processing, tape, and studio tools.

Everything you need to make hit records.
