Good plugin
I have no experience with analogue tape machines of such kind but I'm using it at the very end of my master bus chain, just before final limiter and loudness meter and it sounds pleasant.

Shockingly good
Unlike a lot of the other reviewers, I have zero experience with actual analog equipment. And because of that, I was very skeptical of this plugin.
Holy crap though, it makes everything sound better. And I do mean everything.
Trust the presets until you understand what various things do in this. Or play around, I don’t know, I’m not your dad.

The default settings are just right!
There's nothing that quite gives a mix the 'evenness' like this ATR-102 does. UAD smashed it out the park here. It's the polish that every one of my mixes get, regardless of genre. Once you hear it, you won't want your mix to be without it.
Also, there's also not many plugins that I can leave in a default setting, but I vary rarely change them on this plugin.
The UAD Studer A800 is great for multitracks, and a single instance of this Ampex ATR-102 is perfect for the mix bus!

A really great way to warm up your mix!
Highly recommend. Works great for acoustic jazz.

Miy buen plugin
Suena muy bien
R. Rushing
Absolute favorite
This thing is fantastic. If you get deep into the innards of this plugin, you can really dial up an authentic tape sound. Not just subtly, either. Those rich, fat lows and mids. Those silky, creamy highs. One of my top 5 plugins ever.

Best Tape Emulation.
What I expect from the emulation of a classic is that it does well at least those things that define personality. This is possibly the tape emulation that satisfies me the most in that sense, the response is very realistic, beyond the artifacts and defects of the tape, which I don't usually use, the tonal response, and the way it smooths the transients, makes me feel like I'm really working on tape. I use it mostly on tracks that I want to smooth, not to much on the mix bus.

Ampex ATR-102 The best taste of tape. Tasty
Ampex ATR-102 of all the tape emulations I tried, by far the best, warm bass, a unique spark in the high frequencies, present and crunchy mids, it's simply a marvel of polish for the master, what more can I say, it's an Ampex and it's made by UA. Hey guys, would you like to share a copy of Luna Pro Bundle with me? Love you.

Helps get mixes over the finish line
Just started to use on previously recorded live tracks. The button to disable extensions in LUNA highlights how much of a difference adding the Studer® makes. Everything just sounds better. Very impressed as I play around with the various settings.

Tape Bundle
Amazing!
J. Kane
Very impressed
Having worked in the analog domain for many years I was extremely curious about the tape machine plugins. I’ve even worked with this particular machine and similar ones like it many years ago. I wasn’t disappointed, like many of the UA plugins, the quality in sound, that small analog texture that adds to the mix is amazing. Does it add that low level hiss that many of us long for? It can take a dead mix and breathe life into it. I still use analog gear for recording but have immersed myself into the world of UA for mixing primarily and I’m blown away by the amount of high quality plugins they offer. Game changer products for sure.

A bandle worth its weight in gold!!
These plugins are simply fantastic... just by adding them to the tracks, MixBusses or Master Busses they already provide incredible colorization. Presets that solve practically everything and still allow you to further improve the sound with fine adjustments. I really liked them!! Congratulations on the products and the work you do!!
The music grows so much with them!!

A holy grail !!!
Quite simply the best plugin coded by man,woman, child, for its intended purpose. After compression busses, even a rough mix sounds just about there. Incredible plug in

Something good
I don't know how the original tape recorder sounded or the difference between this plugin and the real tape recorder, but definitely using this marvel my tracks sounds just the way I want and I don't need anything else.

As I expressed in my review of the Ampex ATR-102, should’ve bought it a long time ago!!!
Once again, as my title says, I “should’ve bought it a long time ago!!!”!!! Just like the Amoex ATR-102, it really sounds great and it provides enough settings/options to get many different tones out of it. Very natural if you want it that way and it also distorts nicely.

Should’ve bought it a long time ago!!!
As my title says, I “should’ve bought it a long time ago!!!”!!! It really sounds great, the tape vibe seems very genuine and it provides enough settings/options to get many different tones out of it.
