API vision strip
There`s a 500 series for everything.... ITB for mixing and tracking, this is the one!!

Brilliant Channel Srip
Beautiful sounding channel strip. Especially the EQ section which can really bring out the sparkle or weight in a track. Indispensable on DI'd guitars and bass, and a go-to plug-in for tracking and mixing drums.

easy sound shaping
For me it is a great tool with a nice flavor, easy to use and what we all expect from UA great sounding analog reproduction.

Best channel strip to date
Seriously. Best all around channel strip on the market. Sounds amazing on drums, bass,guitars,everything. Love the gate. Absolutely no complaints. If you do not have this plug then do yourself, humanity and the future of music a favor and purchase the API vision channel strip.

The truth is...
The truth is that you will get WAY better results if you use this plug as a unison pre, use the gates and comp if you choose to, but instead of using the eq in the channel strip, add an API 550a after. For some reason the EQ in the channel strip just sounds kinda phasey and weird. Not solid at all. But is the pre, gate and comp worth the $300? Yeah, it definitely is. I don't know how they do it, but it sounds like analog to me!

amazing
I've recorded through this gear, vintage original gear, and this is just amazing. Worth every penny and more!

Seriously amazing EQ's
If you are looking at these, stop and just buy them. NOW. The 560 is amazing on kick and guitars (and really anything else) and the 550 makes any other snare EQ useless (except for surgical stuff, for the most part these are not surgical). They do what they do really really well. Great Job!

Simply perfect combined with the Apollo interface
I had the same mics, the same vocals but the API channel strip changed everything. It gave the vocal that "record" sound. Smooth, clear and present. That "thang" you can't put a handle on BUT you know it as soon as you hear it. I'm blown away plain and simple.

HELL yes!
Pure magic on Telecasters. Can't wait to see where else this will shine. Fantastic.
F. Cadela
Great on everything
This is a lovely plugin, put on everything and be happy.
I use the pre (unison) on overheads, hi hat, kick and snare sometimes, just lovely.
Buy it and be happy!

Incredible Sound for Drums
This Channel Strip is ideal for drums bus, the sound is very analog, dynamic, ryhtmic and powerfull. Great Sound !
F. Cadela
Muito bom!!!
Comprei recentemente e não me arrependo nem um pouco! Uso em praticamente tudo.
H. Zwarts
almost as good as the real thing!
I own the hardware and this is really a great emulation. Of course you don't get that little extra 3d sound you still get from real analog but it is getting close.
awesome plug in!

API all the way
After buying the SSL & Neve channel strips I thought, I wouldn't need this one for a while. After I tried it, I had to get it. It has a certain sound that just fits. When I read that Fleetwood Mac used the API for Rumors it made perfect sense. It just has a musical quality that is very sweet.
N. Dettenbach
very cool sound but suboptimal ergonomics
If the API Vision would'nt sound so cool and musically flexible as it sounds i would not use it because - for me (!) - the user interface is very suboptimal to handle. The "original" optics which ideally fit's on a hardware console sometimes feels if i will break my hands on my mouse.
It would be really nice to get a switchable alternative simple user interface (ideally with all UAD "vintage emu" plugins) with modern computer GUI elements like sliders and input fields (as on the nice precision series) just for work - for situations / times where original or "natural" optics is less important for the creativity.

API Vision this is very good !!!!
Without a doubt my favorite plugin in unison item preamp. He gives a very real and very solid at the sound characteristic. I loved it in use on snare and also on guitars besides giving much life the voices !!! I highly recommend it
