Amazing!
The best tape echo emulation!

Galaxy Tape Echo -- Next level goodness!
This is a wonderful device emulation. This thing adds real bounce to drum tracks as well as dreamy delay to vocals. The spring reverb adds a good sheen as well as introducing its signature reverb characteristic. It is a versatile, utilitarian plugin. Good on the track or on the group bus. Try it on synths as well. There are also 3 different tape heads to pick from! Well done.

That Vintage Slap and That Spacey Sound
It's a very great recreation of this classic, with that classic tape delay sound and all the possibilities.
Great Work!

10/10 Tape Echo
I’ll probably never need another tape echo plug in ever, this thing rules and I have a dedicated aux track in my daw just for it on every session

Why the modulation whether you want it or not
I've owned a heap of the originals and the wonky modulation is only in worn out ones with bad tapes or faulty or dirty capstan wheels. yeh sure its funky but you don't want it all the time, and it s not even random so stands out even worse on a sustained note. cmon Guys make the new tape switch get rid of the modulation. has no-one noticed this before?

Best Tape echo plugin !
I think this tape echo plugin is the best tape echo plugin !..It sounds so authentic,really like the hardware !..warm,extreme,it has a lot of options and it's very usable !..I love it again,like other UAD plugins ! ..This is a big add to my Soundtoys plugins collection..but in diferent feel and colorization!..thnx UAD for another diamond in plugin world !:)

Does not work
I have been testing this with different audio and midi sources. When you try to place it as an insert on plain audio the plug in just click and pops. I am using a i9 Mac Pro with 64 GB of Ram, and running an Apollo interface, and it's barely touching my DSP. I will stick with the Valhalla. What a shame

Tape Echo buenísima
Había probado ésta emulación por otra marca, pero la de UA se sale de lo común. Un sonido mucho más vivo. Buena elección.

Not finding value so far
Got it as a part of bundle, was a waste of money - this is very good emulation of very old hardware, not really fitting modern workflows. It has very limited controls, so basically it's another plugin I got because of UA marketing/sales/bundles games, but I will keep using my old plugins

Nice space echo. The reverb control is a nice feature. Great addition to my collection

A classic reborn
This is a perfect emulation of one of the most iconic tape delay and reverb.
A must have

Galaxy Tape Echo The Real Thing
Sounds very close to the original hardware. Great on Guitars, Keys, and Vocals. Will be applying it to a lot of mixes in the future.
G. Teekens
Great sound & character!
Great sound and character, for classic tape slap or crazy fx. Also nice to overdrive the input

It's good not great
I LOVE a good delay and the more words it gets the more I love it. I'm all fairness, in part I am reviewing the unit itself as well as UAD profile of the unit.
As far as the unit itself (software), it's limiting. There aren't as many tonal options as I had hoped for. THIS HAS NOT ANYTHING TO DO WITH UAD , But I felt important to share that point. I have used a Binson in the past, so I know what it is supposed to sound like and given that I will say that UAD did a great job with emulating it.
I do wish UAD would add functionalities that are not available on the original units. This goes for any plugin. They are great for one-to-one recreations. Maybe the best at doing that! It would be nice to have more options such as longer delays morphing etc.
This is just me, I don't speak for everyone I realize that.
I personally felt it important to point out.
With that said another great creation by UAD!

Do you really need more tape echo simulations? Just one more :)
Especially when using with guitars, tape echoes add this special sauce, some kind of magic to your guitar tracks. And as you can hear it while you're playing it, it gives you so much inspiration. Combined with the really smooth sound of this device, it is hard not to love this plug in. It comes in both DSP and Native versions so you can use it in real time while monitoring and also give it some final tweaks in the mixing stage. Highly recommended.

Unstable on Logic in low latency mode/latch mode
Sounds pretty good but the main thing i want to use it for is creative feedback riding, where you slow the delay time down and automate it.
Unfortunately in Ventura on Logic (and for a few years) Galaxy Tape Echo constantly crashes and resets if you move any paramaters in low latency mode. Just stutters and stops, or makes clicks and pops.
Universal Audio support have been less than helpful with support issues in the past too.

Very versatile
Great on sends to vocals and guitars
