amazing control

Extremely versitle. Overbiasing and sync eq. Just amazing that such a complex network of electronics can be not only modeled but controlled via a gui. Wow

Great tape emulation

Impressed with this emulation. It can be used very subtly or can add a lot of colour and/or saturation. The library of presets is invaluable to start you off and showcase what the plugin is capable of. Quite different colour and more versatile than a competitor's plug in endorsed by Eddie Kramer - I am glad I have both as they are very different and suitable in different situations. I think for me the ATR102 will be used a lot more.

The Hot Glue Gun

Very impressing! This glues all tracks together and deserves a regular seat in the master channel. It seems to bring warmth, life and even energy to almost any mix.

Superb tape emulation

This lives on my master bus. I couldn't imagine my master bus chain without this plugin to add that tape warmth. And without the hassle of having to maintain a 2 track tape machine.

I've been working on mastering for 5 years. Last December I've bought my new Apollo 8. I demoed many plugins but the first one I decided to buy is ATR-102. I so like how it works in my mastering chain! It's excellent!

Amazing for Electronic Drums

Really brings out the character of electronic based drums from outboard gear to samples. Brings great character that is usually lost working with computer samples and sound.

Amazing!!

I never imagined that a plugin could produce so many different audio colors and still be dead easy to use. Adds warmth to every mix I do and glues all the parts together when used on the Master fader. Great presets also. I couldn't decide between this or the SSL Bus Compressor. Glad I got the Ampex since I can fine tune the sound I want.

Absolute winner!

When your working in the Digital world you just cant get the same tonal characteristics of your favourite records from the past... this is the bridge into that other world!

The perfection made plugin

Is this the real life? is this just fantasy? Nope, This Ampex is real and it rocks! Probably you will wait for a boom and over volumed sound...but this works on sounds detail making the audio great, comprehensive, and rich. This plugin is a MUST in your audio weapon arsenal.

can't live without it

since I purchased my apollo and my ampex atr102 I cannot pass without using it on the mix bus. It lives there, basically. You can get real smooth tape compression and eq out of it. MILES AWAY from every other tape emulation..

A game changer

Among the most "bang-for-bucks" purchase that can be done on the UAD store! It took me less than 15mn, when I demoed this one for a specific mastering purpose, to realize how much it would be efficient to use it more often. From single track to master bus, every step is potentially eligible to be "taped" in the process.
I can never regret the money I spent, would even pay more if asked...

It changed my tracks definitely

The Ampex ATR102 is one of the best (diffiicult to say what is the best) UA plug in. I tryed for the test 14 days period, and after that I bought it. Amazing on every channel, especially on basses and vocals for me.
