Favorite Preamp Plugin So Far!
What a surprise this was to open up my plugins and see this plugin as activated after purchasing my Apollo Quad. This is the warmest , smoothest preamp plugin I've experienced in my collection so far. I also have the Neve 1073, Neve 88R, and API Vision Channel strips. If you are looking for something smooth and warm, look no further.
Great job UA!

Love them both!
I have both the hardware and the software version of the 610,and I love them both!

Time to shift to In A Box Mix.
First time ever, I felt that whole TUBE reality from plug in. Amazing!

Vibe n' Goodness.
I bought the UA 610 Collection mostly because they were the cheapest unity preamp plugs, expecting it to be pretty much a one-trick pony. Oh how very wrong I was.
The 610 A has a beautifully lush Tube character that makes it wonderful for overdrives sounds. It's the more extreme pre of the two, with some major (and good) coloring and much more noticeable saturation and EQ sound. I love using it to rough up some of the synths I own, or add some (much needed) crunch to a snare or break.
The 610 B is a bit different animal. It's more subtle in its tonal coloration, and the EQ is much more forgiving, with switchable freq. options and more play in boost/cut. I'm using this one on everything, even just to add a little character.
Ace stuff!

UA 610a
Just got an fund raiser Multi cd finished for a friend, started on old system. I was ok with it , but wanted to chop a three song classical guitar set down so it would get played. Just for fun I popped the 610a in the front of the signal chain, wow !!!
It blew me away, I'm talking 15% improvement big open air! this was recorded with studio live on location. I think the unison pre's will be my new go to tool, along with some VTM on the tail. Thanks

UA color
this collection is all about tube color and saturation.
do you like ua preamp color? just get this!
E. Waters
Like it. Useful.
Very handy. Useful for making a track a bit brighter & more prominent in the mix. Not exactly like a traditional EQ. Careful to not overuse it.
E. Piesczek-ali
Perfect!
I guess that is my first review. I usually work with the 610 hardware. I can't take my gear everywhere so I thought that the UA 610 plug in was a good alternative for me.
The thing is that I wasn't expecting how far the UAD team went with this modeling if I can call this a modeling. It sounds like the original. What else can I say? Awesome! That is a nice piece. UAD Team, thank you.

must-have in every Apollo's owner arsenal
I have used the Solo 610 HW for many years, and have been addicted to that sound on some R'n'R vocals and acoustic guitars.
To be honest, SW 610 does not sound exactly like my HW Solo 610 . But as I suspect my "modern" 610 is not sounding as old 610's, that's not saying that this plug is not a good emulation of the original UA preamp.
In other hand, I have to admit that I don't care too much about the emulation aspect because this plug brings the special thing I was looking for when using the HW 610
To summarize, using as Apollo Unison preamp plug , these two UA610 are definitely must-have in every Apollo's owner arsenal !
F. Pilz
great emulation
this emulation is wonderful!
As i'm mostly doing narration i put the 610 in my insert to warm up my recordings.
For this it sounds very very creamy.
The built in eq does a good job.
Unfortunately the Apollo twin is just available for Mac-platform. Just to use it as Unison Preamp, i would buy the Apollo twin
R. Castro
Amazing
Combined with the Apollo, it such an amazing system.
S. Lay
Makes my Apollo pre really nice
Great plug in. Being able to track in real time with this plug in is great. Thanks Universal Audio for making my recordings sound better and better with every new release.

5-STAR
Can't believe how great this sounds recording through the 610 A/B, it's just like the Hardware, love to insert it straight on channels to add more color, weight, more 3d sound. So Happy and got the 610 B free, No Brainier to grab the 610-A version for the more Vintage Sound!!
One Word "AWESOME" ;-)
Thanks UA!

UAD 610 vs Solo610
The first time I try this plug I thought : god..... it looks looks they did it ! This plug got the sound of the my hardware Solo610 ! This plug is making the sound boiled the same way my HW preamp do. Good work UA ! But when I've made a closer one to one comparison, it becomes obvious that the plug and the HW behaviors are really different .... I cannot say which is the best , just say there are different...
But can I say that there are more differences between the HWSolo 610 vs UAD 61O than the UAD 61O A vs UAD 61O B ?
Because there are so much differences between the A and B versions, I'm asking to myself if it is really fait to compare UAD 610 to HW 610.
If anyboly get the original 610 pre : please leave a comment :-)

warmth and deffinition
running them in unison mode saved me the investment into a real preamp. I tracked vocals and acoustic guitars through them and wow! it sounds like a recording! Why should I buy a preamp when it sounds stellar just running the mic through the apollo with the 610's on? The low end is nice and round without the boominess and the highs sparkle without the harshness. Money well spent.

Preamp Magic!!
Wow!! I plugged my mxl V69 me into the apollo twin duo with the 610b in the preamp plugin slot and my vocals came alive! Ended up redoing all my previous vocal takes and happy I did. Unison technology really works!
