Amazing plugin
As a new member in the production business, I can´t really define what Ampex does in it´s multiple presets. All I know is, since I bought it, it has changed my final sound, not only in pop/rock productions, but also in orchestral and cinematic works, going allways to the master track.
It´s not only it´s tape or analogical taste, it´s the things it does to the whole block of instruments, gluing them but also enhancing most of them, kinda separating it´s individual sounds.
In most of the cases I don´t know wich preset to choose, each one sounds better in a different sense.
I also use it as a very good delay.
Amazing plugin.

Thank you Universal Audio !

Great quality and very effective
This plugin really glues a group or mix together well. I love using it to make it sound like you are in the room with the session.

The exact reason why I started to use channel strips
I've never used any channel strip before. I thought they were pointless since I already had plugins that can do exactly what those modules can, and with much better flexibility. After demoing this one, I didn't even hesitate or wait for sales/coupons and ordered mine immediately.
I have to say, I'm a GUI guy. The API Vision plugin looks so awesome and cool, especially the level meters. The sound, yes, great on pianos, perfect on bass, even better on drums. The only disappointment I have is the lack of a fader, instead of a gain knob. We want faders on channel strips :(
Definitely worth every buck even without discounts and coupons.

Pultec Passive EQ Plug-In Collection
Well I was struggling with mastering my tracks as good as the other UA mastering plugins are I couldn't get the sound that was in my head until I tried these plugins wow it made all the sounds that I was looking for. After a bit of playing with the controls and reading the manual I wouldn't master with any thing else very very happy they really do a good job thanks UA.

Impresionante
Se trata de un plugin que convierte una pista simple de audio, en algo superior. Es imprescindible para todo ingeniero, músico o locutor. Sin duda Universal Audio, vuelve a demostrar que SÍ es cierto que desarrollan los plugins para que sean 99,99% iguales que el hardware original. No dejéis de descargar este plugin is AMAZING!!!!! Good Job Universal Audio Guys

A Lot Of Fun But... Be Careful!
This plug-in is a LOT of fun to use. It really does sound like tape. The wow and flutter controls are amazing, as is the adjustable hiss. The saturation quality is off-the-charts!
However, ear fatigue is a real thing. After hours of just PLAYING with this plugin, you stop hearing the subtle effects of the table, and start pushing the plugin harder and harder. The good news is, the plugin can take it, and sounds great. The bad news is, you might come back the next day and realize that you pushed it WAY too far.
I seriously don't think I have a need for my outboard TEAC reel-to-reel anymore, though I probably still won't get rid of it... but this is already one of my favorite plugins ever!

First Channel Strip, and it's AWESOME!
I've never had a dedicated channel strip before... hardware or software. I have to say, though, this one makes me realize why I should have invested in one a long time ago. Being able to give all my recorded tracks from disparate sources a similar sound really makes the mix more cohesive. This one is so straight-forward and easy-to-use. And it really has the ability to make my outboard gear actually sound better at record time. I'm not one to "print" changes while recording, but it's really hard to make something sound bad going through this channel strip. I do not regret this purchase AT ALL!

Happy That I Bought This
This plug in does so much when you put it over the entire mix buss. It literally gives an entire mix character. Much better and accurate than other Tape Emulation plug ins. Well worth the money.

Great Tape even if you have ALOT of others!
I have probably most if not all other tapes by other makers and of all of them Slate's is the better fit for the tape sound to my ears. I didn't really care for it across all the tracks though. That is where the Studer has really shined. The controls are great! Most people already on UAD already know such things but if you're skipping this one due to having other tapes? Try it!

That magic...
Love the grey La2a on vocals...tracking with the UA Neve 1073 into the UA1176 rev E into the UA Teletronix La2a grey.
That combination is nothing short of amazing. 5 stars, guys.

LEVELER COLLECTION ON THE LEVEL !
I have been using just the LA-2A legacy for the past 5-6 years,. it has always been a "go to" for smooth, warm and full comp/limiting and without eating up too much DSP,.(i have only used a hardware LA-2A twice before). I just purchased the LA-2A Classic Leveler Collection,.which at first i was hesitant as i felt the differences/advantages would be minimal. Wrong. The subtleties obtainable and also the dramatic difference under certain circumstances broaden the palette immensely.
The response and frequency transients are distinct to each model and accordingly suitable for whatever source you are dealing with.
Inspiring and comforting to have so much quality gear on hand, and for such a small investment. Make your day BUY IT !

Something is missing.
Its too clean in a way.
The noise from the real hardware is very important to make it sound like an LA2A
I dont think this is very close to the real deal.
Generally i will find that your plugins needs more grit and dirtyness.

Pathetic
Since this is 'Magneto Month' I thought I'd share my pathetic review. I started recording as a teen 30 years ago with tape and always hated it, because of the darn hiss / high end trade off with Dolby B or dbx that constantly pi$$ed me off. I welcomed the digital age and could not understand why UA would emulate antiquated technology to this extent. I demoed the A800 and believed it was just another EQ plugin with some hiss EFX for fun. But once I bought it and learned the manual inside-out and began to learn its history and what exactly I was tweaking I fell in love. OMG. I cherish 70s and Alan Parsons and boy does this bring me back to where subtle distortion and pleasant overtones shape music that is so pleasing to ears. Mm..mm .mm.mm Mm

The Tape Machine inside your Bits!
Well... I only can imagine of a good Tape Machine.. will probably never own a real one. But I can "hear" the difference between my "dry-tapeless" sound and the "wet-tape-sim'ed" sound - a BIG difference. I have compared several simulations from several manufactures, but this one is the most amazing one. I like to use the very "clean" Mastering presets as a starting point, except I want to go extreme. This Tape Sim is also excellent for slap-back on vocals. I would be careful to put this one on every channel, this is maybe for the studer, especially for tracking through it. But for the master bus and for indiviual tracks it is a beast!

Love the richness!
I loved the legacy Pultec Pro plug, and this ups the mojo. It's killing it on my drum busses.

Tape vs Tape vs Tape vs UA ATR-102
I have more tape emulation plugins than I care to admit and none of them gave me exactly what I was looking for. Admittedly, I stayed away from the ATR because of the price tag...I even stayed away from demoing it because I was afraid I would like it! And...that's what happened...two days after demoing it, I bought it. Short and sweet...it does what none of the others did for me in that sonic sweetness department.
