zero stars
terrible customer service, when you buy plugins they don't belong to you at all. If you buy multiple interfaces in particular, you cannot transfer any of the plugins with them unless you completely leave the uad system. the worst. the support is incredibly unfriendly too.

Absolutely Excellent!!
I have waited many years for UAD plug-ins to go native , this plate sounds absolutely perfect for my vocal recordings along with their other plugins used in my latest productions . Love it !!!!

Warm and authenticity
The Universal Audio Studer A800 Tape Emulator Plugin is a game-changer for anyone seeking to infuse their digital recordings with the warmth and character of analog tape. From the moment you apply it to your mix, the A800 imparts a rich, warm tone that adds depth and dimension, making the low-end tighter, the mid-range more pronounced, and the high-end smooth and silky. Its multiple tape formulas and calibration settings provide exceptional flexibility, allowing precise control over tape saturation and compression to suit any mix.
Moreover, the plugin excels in providing a cohesive glue to the mix, enhancing unity and harmony across all elements. Its intuitive user interface, coupled with minimal CPU usage, ensures a seamless experience even in larger projects. The Studer A800 is not just a tool but an essential asset for achieving professional-sounding mixes, capturing the essence of the legendary tape machine with remarkable authenticity. Universal Audio has truly set the bar high with this outstanding emulation.

Controls Height and one of the Depth parameters
Magnetic Tape Formula Type, IPS, Secondary controls such as Repro EQ, Sync EQ, HF Driver acts like an EQ that controls Frequencies (Height Parameter to localise the sound at Top, Centre or Bottom).
The Bias from Secondary controls acts like a Low Level Compressor that controls Distance (Depth parameter to localise the sound at Near, Mid or Far field) and provide strength to weakest audio signals to make it sound located at Near field.
The Calibration acts like a Harmonic Distortion Unit that add certain amount of Harmonics according to users' preference.

great sound on the twobus
Sounds amazing, and tons of options. Different tape formulations, speeds, crosstalk, transformer saturation, tape width, bias etc.

Pure Plate Reverb
As an owner and user of EMT and Echoplate mechanical units over 45 years I must say the UAD Pure Plate does a very good job emulating a real plate, Real plates all sound a little different depending on temperature of the plate and tension (tuning) of the sheet metal so there is no definite sound of a plate but this emulation does what it does very good. Well pleased and besides I don't need a basement to house it.

Man, this is worth the price just for the Repro HF knob alone!
I'm fairly knew to using UAD stuff, but they live in my heart now!

Classic device. Highly Recommended

Excellent for a vocal chain
Great for recording a vocal using the preamp with a touch of compression and EQ.

Exceptions can be made
I am a loyal SSL user. 99% of my workflow is SSL complete plugins and a UF8 console. However, there are two plugin bundles that will have a place in every mix for the rest of my days: Pultec EQs and the LA-2A compressor. I'm saving to buy analog modules of both.

Amazing sounding DAW that feels analog
I think I’ll finally be making the switch to Luna after relying on Logic Pro for the past few years.
I originally tried Luna about a year ago after receiving a free trial for the Luna complete bundle. I loved everything about other than a few things: latency was still an issue when running native, keyboard shortcuts made no sense to me at the time.
However, I’ve been noticing mental road blocks when using logic and I couldn’t figure out why. I came to the conclusion that I needed something that just felt like a tape machine and had a focused workflow, and menu diving was getting annoying. I tried to fix some of these things with solutions like templates, presets, and third party plugins, but I still felt like I was always mixing and never actually producing.
So I randomly gave Luna a try again and it felt so natural this time! The problems that I was complaining about before were fixed, and now it really does feel like recording to tape in front of an analog desk.
Now I still have some complaints: I’m bummed to see the Neve summing extension not a part of the Luna pro bundle. I like the API summing but I just LOVE the Neve summing. I don’t know what it is, it’s not a gimmick or some voodoo, and it sounds so visceral and analog. But now I have to save up for that :/ really wish it had been included in the Luna Pro bundle (hence the 4 star review, I’m that bummed!)
Overall, a great DAW that when on sale, costs about as much as logic and will keep getting better. Sure logic has way more features on paper, but for me, a guy that just wants to make good sounding music and have fun, Luna makes that journey way faster and way more fun

An analog touch
In the midst of so many algorithms, nothing better than returning that soft color of the tape to our tracks. Very good work!

Full satisfaction.
It really enhances the soundtrack and gives a character to it.

Disappointing buying experience
With a friend I was discussing what made Motown so special, he believes the musicianship. I believe the sound (it's both of course, but not one without the other). To prove my point I try to make a song sounding like Motown and as a hobbyist this plugin ((partly) essential Motown) on offer was within my budget (€31). However, hours after buying and installing it I saw UAD also had on offer a five plugin bundle, including this one, as wel as a.o. the praised Space Echo and Pultec emulation, for €59. I would have preferred that, but I was too late, I already had installed my purchase. I should have done an extended search. Let me be clear, I understand offers are valid for a limited time, but these two were valid, and still are, for the same period. Complicating factor is that UAD mails me, a Windows user with the EMT140 offer, that only works on Apollo. And this one, although being an EMT140 emulation does not have the name in it. I already had to do some searching to figure things out. It's hard to keep an overview. The name is confusing. All this keeps from being satisfied with my purchase. I could have been better off.
