Great Plugin
I selected the API Channel Strip because i cant afford the API Vision, but it works for me,
Is a great Plugin

New features are so worth it
Unlike the now "legacy" version of the API Vision Channel Strip, this one took the time to model the input transformer of the mic pre to get the most out of your Unison experience. Furthermore, it includes a fader with VCA behavior, and models the 2520 op-amp, features not available at the time the legacy was first introduced, when Unison was just starting. The addition of the 560 is an added bonus. No one likes spending money, but any objective user that owns the "legacy" version will not be disappointed. I don't understand the complaints about the price. The transformer emulation alone is worth the upgrade.

Get the bundle if you DON’T have all the API plugins
I had already purchased some of the plugins and was about to purchase some more API stuff. But once I started adding up numbers it made more sense to get the bundle vs buying another API plugin. Now I will say it could have been less (bundle pricing). Especially since I myself already own the API channel strip.

API Vision
I dont own the original API vision channel strip but just demoed the Channel strip with Luna and was pretty floored incredible sound and integration into Luna.
I have owned the UAD API 2500 550 and 560 for years use them all in every mix I do.
Considering you also get the API 2500 bus comp in this deal which alone is $299 I don’t see the fuss in the upgrade price of $150 for existing vision owners.
Your essentially getting the API 2500 for half price if you look at it this way.
Anyhoo will definitely be grabbing this love the sound the integration and workflow into Luna big time saver with no floating windows can’t believe a daw has not done this years ago and with the option to also use in other daw pro tools etc it’s a great option.
Now we just need a dedicated hardware control surface for Luna or at least support for hui avid artist or presonus etc
Great work love this thing

Small update, big price

Not pleased with upgrade
Just upgraded my UA software before reading all this and my API vision strip is legacy now . I already had the other APi eqs and and buss compressor and now I have to upgrade . This is not cool for long time users like myself , I have 129 UA plugins and multiple interfaces .

Poor practice
I bought this plugin in January. Now I need to buy it again to get the latest version? Bad customer experience

Channel strip to go
This is my bread and butter CS. I use it in almost in every mix. It's now degraded to legacy, but still sounds great. There's not much improvement in the upgrade. Kind of rip off.

Upgrades should be FREE
Way to rip off your customers. $150 just to add API 560? Crazy.
G. Williams
Deeply disappointing
It's really not on to be asking £130 for a trivial update. Hopefully your clients - most of whom, like me, generally love and make heavy use of your products - are voting with their wallets and not touching this. I don't understand why you are not responding to this level of feedback, acknowledging you've made a mistake and rectifying it.

Rip off
The great product and if a reasonable e price was set that's maybe also tolerable .I'm sorry but making loyal customers pay so much for an upgrade is nothing but a shameful, greedy rip-off,

Best for the best
The best sim so far.....That shimmering oasis in the distance ,that's the rest of the stuff out there..
J. Parnell
Just perfect
The ultimate in convenience, speed and most importantly sound. I owned every plugin before purchasing this emulation and I would do it again in a minute.
F. Mittino
150$ to upgrade?
Same story. I bought the API plugin and now it has become 'legacy'.
You can see I'm not the only one complaining.
It is also a really cheap marketing strategy to show only few 5 stars reviews in the product page, ignoring the 99% of the complains. I hope you'll do something about this situation, your products are great and you are still in time to fix this.

Treat us better
As a super loyal customer, Swearing to your products and happily spending a lot on them - this is very disappointing.
Won’t buy another product one until you’ve corrected this.
Plugin Alliance, Slate and Acoustica are all fine alternatives.
Treat us better. It’s up to you.

No way in hell
Am I giving more money for UAD plug ins with sketchy moves like this.

Abzocke
Die Plugins klingen super, aber das geht nicht: Geld Geld Geld, schade.
