Sonic Conditioner
I think the Studer A-800 plug-in is great for adding basic good tone to most sources. Quite often it is the right solution to tame down and absorb erratic sibilance and harshness, especially in vocals.
I think of it like a sonic conditioner… and that’s just with the default settings. There are a lot of options beyond that once you start exploring the presets and various settings.
I wish it had locked input and output controls, and I certainly wish UA plug-ins gave you numeric readouts of all the settings. But I still give it 5 stars because it sounds so great.

warm and smooth
After you put this plugin at the top of every track and do the final mix, you can really feel the huge difference.
a800 is surely live up to it's name.

The Truth in tape satuation
I have used the studer in million dollar studios and this plugin is so close that you really don’t miss the real thing!! Great work universal audio!

stunning
Probably not the only tape sim you will own, but definitely one that's great to have ready to go, whether for smoothing out aggressive highs or improving dynamics while increasing harmonic content in a very subtle way, this one is very versatile and light in processor usage. Incredibly good job by uad.

Excellent plugin
This plugin has succeeded. It is excellently suited to give the mix a beautiful analogue colouring and to connect the different frequencies into a harmonious whole. The sonic possibilities are manifold. However, with other UAD plugins, we are also, unfortunately the switches and knobs of the user interface are too small. Please UAD, develop larger and more grippy user interfaces!

Cream!
When I think of mixing I have a picture of a vintage console and a tape machine, not that you need either, it’s just that the best records (when recorded well) didn’t go without passing through these circuits. I was in need of something to balance my record, and needed what ever I used not to remove what sizzled in my ears. This tape machine brought music to my master. I guess you can say am now a believer of old school technics. Try it, it’s magic.

Very pleased!
Really helps all the elements gel in a mix and unlike a lot of other tape plugins I've used it doesn't sound overly vintage-y if you don't need it to
