Great 4 Drums
I love this plug in. I use it when I mix and master, sometimes it's to rough on the low end when I master, but overall a wonderfull Plug in

Spoiled for choice
UAD has given me so many flavors of tape and I find each to be really useful and great for explorative sound sculpting. This deck has found a happy partner in my Tom Oberheim Two Voice Pro. From chugging basses to twinkling tenor range sequences, this deck really allows for a high degree of sheen and shine. I can get each voice to settle down nicely in the mix with this. Great plugin.

I can always find a use for this
Be it degrading the signals a bit to achieve a more lo-fi grunge, to getting psychedelic with the wow & flutter, this tape recorder lives on my busses. I've always dreamt of having my own reel-to-reel, but this has filled my desires completely. I love that it can sound beat up and grimey, or pristine and warmth. I really appreciate the fine level of controls it has (for instance, being able to turn off noise/hum and recording more pristinely) and I've found this plugin greatly rewards experimentation.

For the Drums
Very, very good on drum's track. Add depth and wide and sounds analog.
On clean guitar too, very beautiful analog sound.
A must have.
Et voilà ...

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

Let's be honest
Ok lets be honest, in my case I don't use it like they say to... I prefer a clean mix verses the dirt that everyone is trying to recreate in there mix, so with that being said. I use this plugin very lightly just to bring a little more of the low-end out on the master, because it seems to get lost when mixing different projects. I enjoy the way it glues and gives a nice harmonic saturation to the record so check it out..

Is this worth getting into the UA2 ecosystem alone?
Is this worth getting into the UA2 ecosystem alone? Well it costs considerably less than the real thing, you can have many of them working at the same time, trying to fit multiple Studers in a studio, let alone a home setup is going to be painful in more ways than one.
And then there's the impression that I get that it just sounds RIGHT. Unlike a lot of tape emulations! I can't quite explain it, it's sometimes quite subtle differences, but long listening you just don't feel it's artificial, or an EFFECT. It's tape without the tape.

I like IT!
I don't know why people say don't use it on the 2 buss. Some songs it works great on the 2 buss and some it does not. Main thing to tweak is the low end going through it. I have starting just putting it on a buss and dialing in how much I want of it on each individual instrument.

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.

Great plugin
This is a great tape plugin for the master mix bus. Great variety in the sounds you can achieve.

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.
W. Karadjian
great sound / very few dsp needs
I use to work with the J37 tape simulator from Waves, on a bus track, sending lots of the instruments in it.
Now, and consequently to its very few dsp needs, I can plug the Oxide Tape on almost every tracks I have.
And I'm telling you, it sounds great. It does something really subtle and essential at the same time, it's bonding my tracks one another.
P. Moshay
So useful for shaping tracks
I was so pleased how unique this plugin was after using it for a while, its not like the other tape plugs...... it really gives you more unique shapes that can really transform your track into more tonal shapes than other tape emulations.
This is a must have along with the Studer and Ampex to me.
P. Cheeseman
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.
T. Couton
Something more
Not always easy to use, sometimes very subtle, but i really like it.

Warm that Mix up!
This plugin is a time machine that'll take you back to a far away place where music sounded warm and beautiful to the ear.
It's a must have for any digital environment.
