The Tool for Work Unload
The Studeras the first insert in every track makes mixing much easier. All of a sudden, harsh or brittle top end gets smoothed out, lows sit together well among tracks, transients get clear and defined. In the end, less tweaking is needed to mix tracks. You can gang the channels together for a real-life like pass of multitrack tape recording, or you can even tweak and eq each channel individually. Time is saved, and that alone makes it worth buying.

Instant Mojo
Whaterver this plugin does, it excells. Tracks processed through it sound cohesive, classy, and polished. Although DSP load can be high on the Apollo Twin, boucing and deactivating plugins is a small price to pay for this quality. I own U-He Satn and I thought I was done buying tape emulations. Boy, was I wrong!

As others have said, this thing can make anything sound more polished.

Lay it on!
I put this on everything! I use it on the way in, on sends in the project, and I'd use it on the master bus if not for the Ampex.

Una gloria de la compresion
Buenas, me animo a escribir en español ya que veo poca información en este idioma. Con respecto al paquete L2-A2 puedo decir que la excelencia en compresión a llegado al mundo digital. Los realces y los colores son perfectos, aportando un sonido único en cuanto a nitidez y claridad en la mezcla, sin perder la profundidad y la rugosidad del sonido analógico, destacando de manera sorprendente los sonidos procesados a través de ellos. Recomiendo abiertamente este paquete, no va a haber arrepentimiento en lo más absoluto. Saludos

color for your digital world
nothing to do with the version of waves .... just plug it into your voice or acoustic guitar tracks to hear all the beauty of this historic compressor. thanks universal audio

Silver Bullet
Indistinguishable from the hardware LA2A in the rack that I A/B'd it with, except now I have one for every track!

You don't need me to tell you if it's good or not
This plug in sounds like an la-2a. It fits on things that I can't really make an 1176 sound right. If you have an 1176, and la-2a in your list then you have 90% of your dynamic needs

The Truth
These compressors are amazing....The sound quality is as good as it gets....

a 'should have'
You'll be surprised how much you will use it once you have it. From simple gaining to heavy compression/limiting. It has so many hot-spots for different purposes! If i had to choose one it would be this. Sounds so much better then the waves alternative!!!

Fast And Effective
This plugin is what I've always wanted in a tape emulation. I have the Ampex that I use primarily for the wow and flutter effects. For the quick "tape" sound, Oxide is the best I've used. I demo'd the Studer, and it is very much in that same ballpark-except that since there are so few options, Oxide takes less than 10 seconds to dial in the perfect setting and then I'm moving on. It took a couple minutes at least with the Studer because of the options. This is my utility, cumulative-effect plugin that makes stuff sound better. Try it out. Buy it up.

really improves the sound
I do really like it, i fell a warm nice sound that help´s to avoid the ugli digital caracter of the ITB mixing

Sounds great, but GUI needs modernization.
This plugin sounds incredible. But it also suffers from the same problem that almost all of their vintage plugs do: UA refuses to move into modern times with the GUI. You can't see the values of anything you're adjusting, and in recreating the exact layout of the original hardware, it's not as easy to see and navigate as it should be. For people like me who do extremely rapid work with super tight turnarounds with very precise adjustments (post production), it's a real drag. They should also go the Slate route and offer more EQ points (or continuously adjustable), etc. UA makes great sounding plugins but they are stuck in old times GUI-wise -- if they moved their GUIs to the 21st century, I would buy more. I stopped after this one.

Good for all instruments and vocals!
I've been using these plugins since I bought them and have not been disappointed yet! Have used them for all rhythm section instruments and lead male and female vocals - both during recording and mixing with good results all around. Highly recommended!

Oxide Tape
It's excellent. Try it. Instant glue on drum groups or mix buses, adds character to individual tracks etc... A different flavour to the ATR. marvellous.
M. Molling
Very nice plugin!
Tighter bottom end end much smoother highs than any other pultec emulation I know. Big recommendation!

Better than I thought it would be...
I purchased an Apollo 16, and Oxide came with it as a promo. Honestly, Oxide has sounded so good when applied to selected tracks, that I have started adding it to ALL tracks on recent sessions. Although the Studer & Ampex are highly priced, am seriously contemplating them as well. I'm currently remastering a 90's traditional country CD "in the box", and I'm using all UAD plug-ins on the master track. The differences are subtle, but amazingly noticeable when you get the presets / settings right. Although I feel UAD's prices are a little high, this one may be worth the $$$. I use more and more UAD plug-ins on every session.
