Strategic Weapon

As I used a real one in 80s , I love the sound of tapes and all their nuances .
This plugin , very close to original one is helpful to change the nuance, harmonics, dynamics and EQs of the programs or instruments in very special way. Be careful ! !t’s addictive ;).

How Is That Even Possible?

The first words I spoke when I tried this plugin in my mastering chain was, "How is that even possible?" I've never purchased any UAD plugins until now, and the Ampex emulation was my first. The presets are pretty much all you need, just find the preset that suits the song and mastering needs best, and you're all set. It's as simple or complicated as you want it to be, and it sounds amazing. This one plugin will most likely replace 2-3 plugins in my chain, and that's something I've never encountered in my last decade of producing music. Now that this plugin is native, and for the price it's currently at, this is one of the very few plugins I've begged all my producer friends to get. If I ever need new plugins, I think I'll be checking UAD first. Do yourself the favor and grab this.

Outstanding!

I am old enough to have used actual reel-to-reel tape in recordings and I can assure you that this plugin comes very close to emulating the real thing. It's all about the warmth; the sound. Great job on this one.

Get this great TAPE emulator !

The Ampex ATR-102 is a fantastic all rounder TAPE emulator for your DAW and tracks and tunes. It's amazingly warm and great for saturation. It has a nice wobbly vibe to it that makes sound stand out, well to my ears anyway. Get it today and add it to your plugin chain.

Waiting for the true version

This plugin is lacking in sound and features. It is not the native version, it is another simpler version. Still waiting for the true version, but native.

Incredibly Good

Sometimes I think to myself, wait a minute, I now have enough plugins to get by with them and I have to put in the time to get to know them well. But now I'm amazed again and how does UA manage to make something like this, so incredibly good.

Go for it..

I had the oxide 1st. I like this on the master bus and the oxide for most tracks.
This thing has all the options and sounds great so far. I'm done after this last plugin... lol

Best sounding plate reverb that I have encountered

I've usually avoided plate reverb emulations in the past, but this one has changed my mind about them. To my ear, the plate reverbs I've experienced sound like electronic and cheap, not like a real space that I'd like to live in. I think it has something to do with the dimensions of the plate, and the quality and placement of the transducers. This one gives a subtle, pleasant plate sound, and seems more three-dimensional than the other ones. Because it uses relatively low DSP, it pretty much lives on my vocal tracks for the headphone mix. I record dry and add IR reverb to taste in post-production.

Top notch

This is a wonderful plugin, have found it useful in tracking and mix scenarios. No idea if it sounds like a tape machine as I haven’t used one for over twenty years but when it works it works really well at adding an elusive, subtle, weighty, gluey, dimensional sauce.

The Long Wait Is Over!

I’ve been waiting for this to go native for a very long time. I used to own the satellite and used this on many, many masters. I decided to get rid of that clunky device and unfortunately, this was one of my biggest pain points missing from my workflow after. We are SO back!

Life of worship

Incredible software. Other than being told I have to buy an additional Ilok usb to use off line. I do not connect my computer to mix, master or record
And now I have to in order to use software?

Amazing

Best tape emulation plugin I’ve used. Absolutely love its sound and how versatile it is. Being able to choose between different tape formulas and heads to find the sound I’m looking for is a game changer for me. Quickly became a mainstay on my master bus.

Disadvantaged version of the DSP-based plugin

The native version does not include the usability as a tape delay, calibration tones, or continuous level controls for the analog noises (wow, flutter, hiss, hum). Otherwise great plugin, but this stunting of the older version isn't really comprehensible without further explanation, but actually the marketing was somewhat misleading in this respect.
