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 !!!!

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.

Amped ATR 102

Plug in carries quite a bit of noise with it, I will see how it performs.

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!

a great alternative

I bought the UAD2 after testing this plugin. I own and love the Waves and Abbeyroad tape plugins. But this takes everything one step further. But you have to listen very carefully, or you'll overdo it! Watchout for HF boosts and bassdrum smear. If you stay just right under the "too much"-level, everything comes to life in a very beautiful way with this plugin. Killer on the drumbus!!

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!

Great Sound of Ampex

Love the sound of this plugin. I love to add just a fine touch of Ampex to glue my mix. Great job.
It's a little expensive but it worth it.

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!

Not cheap but great on master bus

I don't use it every time on master but try it every mix
Often glues and adds some high end sparkle

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!
