Smooth and clear!!!
It´s just WOW when you turn on the highs on the EQ-P1A and THEN roll them off at the same time. This kind of coloration can be only made with this one without harshness and that "plastic" feeling of other kind of derivations of this EQ.
I heard also the hardware and must admit that the UAD version doesn´t lack the deepness of which everyone talks all the time, for me it´s sounds round, full and perfect. GOOD JOB UAD!! :)))

Nice analog sound
Before I purchased this plugin I demoed it an compared to the waves kramer, j37 and the studer. I think that compared to others, this one offers an immediate difference in sound. The sonic characteristics can go from subtle to more evident. I'm using it on my final mixes and I'm very satisfied as it suites my needs. Nevertheless, I have to say that the price is far too high. I purchased it thanks to a 250€ coupoun and the 50€ price cut that they were offering, otherwise I believe that 350€ for a plugin is close to ridiculous.

Can't work without it
This set is amazing. The eq alone is just bliss. I have so many other eq's that just don't compare. My current go to setting on the eq is 10K with 2-4db boost. I regret not buying it sooner and using it on my previous mix-downs.

Another five-star rating, and deservedly so.
This is a fantastic set of character EQs.
The EQ-P1A is quite simple: a low-shelf, a high-peak, and a low-pass. Its strokes are broad and it does glorious things to highs & lows.
The MEQ-5 is my favorite EQ for doing mid-scoops without being incredibly aggressive. The "Dip" section finds its way on a lot of my mixes, allowing me to arrive at a "modern" sound but with vintage vibe. The boosts are ridiculously smooth as well.
And the HLF-3C, while probably the least exciting of the three, is the one I use the most. The filters do their thing beautifully; nothing sounds "chopped off", but rather just natural and so slightly rounded.
Don't overlook the "old" Pultec Pro either! It's earned its status as a classic, for a fraction of the DSP.

Makes a big difference
I recently sent some tracks off to be mixed and mastered by a professional studio. When I got the mixes back they were not at all what I wanted or expected. To my ear it was completely wrong. I decided to mix the tracks myself and once I had mixes I was happy with I was looking for tricks to enhance them during the mastering process. I'm glad I found this plugin because it has made a substantial difference. I recorded my first album to tape and I've always felt that record has a nicer vibe to it that I've never quite managed to replicate in the digital realm. This plugin, as well as a few others has really helped to achieve what I was looking for. Definitely my favourite from UAD.

Much better than the original Pultec collection. I really liked that one, but I would never use it on the mixbuss. This lives on it! The filter is so great for shaving off that digital high end. Love it x's infinity!

My go-to channel
I tried this plugin based on positive feedback from other users and I am certainly glad that I did! The expander/gate alone is worth the price. It really is that good. I plan on purchasing enough DSP expansion so that I can use this plugin on most tracks like a virtual console. The only downside is it's very resource-intensive. Sounds incredible though!

Flex Your Ears
After getting my API Channel Strip and using for one day... it became clear to me how useful it can be as a BenchMark. There are many pieces of gear that I can add together to clean up a mix quick, but not many that come in one well working package.
It's very colorful. When making cuts/boosts trust your ears. Not the knobs... but you know that.

Just Amazing - the LA-2A
The most often used compressor in my setting - just a brilliant sound! After years of using it, it still has the "WOW" effect.
The crazy thing is: These emulations sound better than the original analog LA-2A in the studio i am working at the moment...

GREAT SOUND !
I have the Apollo Duo for my Mic Channel. I love to use the API for my Vocals it sounds very well. Comparing to the other Preamps there is so much difference and the final recording is very athentic.

ASTOUNDING
This collection is a serious upgrade to their initial Pultec release. Having worked with the physical hardware units I was a bit disappointed by the Pultec-Pro and was hoping for a better emulation...luckily this refined version came out. I can say without a doubt this is the best Pultec emulation I've heard to date. You can push this EQ extremely hard and get that lovely, familiar hardware EQP-1A sound. Great job UA!

Sounds so good!
I have a small lunchbox at the studio. It's a 500 series, but this still gives that hint of API when you drive it hard! I am very content with the super clean pres, but I like the color API gives. It still somewhat clean, but it has the API signature sound! The EQ and compressors sound so great!
C. Norgrove
Classic and still the best!
I've been using this collection for a year or so now and I never tire or using it. It adds that classic LA-2A sound to pretty much anything you throw at it, whether you're looking at adding some dirt to a drum track at seriously high settings or just nicely leveling a vocal track, this can do it all from mild to wild. Absolutely in love with this plugin, it finds a way into every one of my mixes in some shape or form. You've got 3 to choose from although I do find myself always using the Silver, I dunno, it just does it for me! Buy it!

Superior to track tape machine
There is nothing like adding a tape machine to your sound. I used this exact model in the hardware version,on a daily basis. This plug-in is so true to the tape sound it's amazing to me. Together with the ability to change tape, speeds, Bias, EQ, it truly gives you the flexibility to get any sound off the tape you want. The warmth of this plug-in is outstanding. It was one of the first ones that I got.

Great Channel Strip
Back in the day, I used API consoles. This plug is dead on it... The features react the same way. I love the sound the channel allows me to greate. It is some smooth and warm sound.... I am still amazed that it is a plug with this kind of great sound.
