Ampex...
Fantastic tape emulator!!! It was so difficult to choose between Ampex and the Studer A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder, another great tape emulator. But I I demoed it for 15 days and chose Ampex, it works with my recordings. Thank you!

Magnifique !!!
Excellent plugins !!!
Apporte de la chaleur au mix, impossible de s'en passer, inséré dans le bus master de mon Daw il donne une finalité au mix et un agréable rendu sonore.
Les fonctions sont un peu complexes, comparé à l'oxide l'ATR102 dispose de plus de fonctions bien pensés permettant de faire tous ce que l'on veut.
Les différents mode analogiques sont remarquables.
Un excellent plugin de chez UAD.
Merci !!!!

SOUND IS SO FULL
Put this at the end of your mix and watch the magic happen.

Instant Mojo
Whaterver this plugin does, it excells. Tracks processed through it sound cohesive, classy, and polished. Although DSP load can be high on the Apollo Twin, boucing and deactivating plugins is a small price to pay for this quality. I own U-He Satn and I thought I was done buying tape emulations. Boy, was I wrong!

Best Glue and Mastering Plugin Ever.
I was shocked by the result of this Plugin what can do with a master track or your mix.
The whole mix just come to alive like never before.
Incredible what u can achieve with the Ampex Atr 102.
I already own a lot of other plugins as such as Apollo Twin Duo. The best ever.
Nice One Guys keep up the good work.

Punch, Clarity, Depth, Glue
I got the demo of this because it kept popping out to me as I glanced through the plugins in the online store. This is hands-down the best tape plugin I've ever used.
The sound is wonderful. It glues a mix together, adds depth in the low end, smooths out harshness in the high-mids, tightens up the mix by adding that lovely/natural tape compression, and I haven't even mentioned all of the options you can tweak if you want to get specific.
The tape choices are brilliant for honing in on the specific sound you're looking for. You can get pro, Pop mastered, clear mixes through this or that warbley, thick, crumbly old demo sound. This does some extreme things if you push it hard enough but it's also easy to just bring in a subtle vibe-y Wow.

It's a Medium
The Ampex Tape Plug-In has become a medium for me in my recordings, adding both glue and varnish to my pieces, so glad I committed to it.
Thank you Universal Audio!

One of the best plugins out there
This plugin is probably one of the best plugins you can find in the digital domain. For mixing and mastering, this plugin delivers a sound that no other plugin can give you. Big thanks to UAD for making this emulation!

Magie... | just magic
Macht den Sound einfach "weicher". Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass in der digitalen Domäne soviel analoger Sound möglich ist. | Makes the sound just "softer". I never thought, that as much analog sound is possible in the digital domain .

Ok this is serious!
I am writing music 20 years. I am into electronic music from the beginning. I am from small country - Slovakia! I have write local hits, some of them have over 40.000.000 views on YT! I went trought hardware / software stuff during many years in studio! But all of these facts are not important!
Now the important part - there are no words, what Universal audio brought to the digital world of music production! And especially this AMPEX one is the cherry on the cake in the final mastering process!
Thank you!

Amazing for novice engineers
I have no idea what I'm doing with the tape machine I have never used one before however I know what sounds good in this plug-in gives your music a warm familiar Sonic sound that has made my tracks sound amazing!

Analog Excellence
It was a hard choice between this and the Studer, but this plug-in is amazing and can do so much more. You can read it in every review, there's magic in here, add a sheen to your high end and a thick warmth to your bass. I keep adding to almost every master bus, but it's great on any bass driven source, or... anything. So many options to still explore. Be aware, this is one of the heavyweights and will use a fair bit of DSP.

Magic!
Just pure magic on the mix bus! ...and for many other aplications too!

Love it !
My go to plug in during Mastering. I always have it on my mastering chain. Brings a warmth, glue like quality and an elegance that nothing else can provide. One of the fist plugins I ever purchased for my UAD system.
I find myself using it on my mix bus and group buses every now and then.
I am planning on experimenting a little with this plugin on my recording chain. Just to see what it does.
To sum it u, this is one of the plugins you must have. Voids the purpose of having a UAD system otherwise. Worthy every single penny. Highly recommended.
