Great as Delay
But not good as a mastering tape machine... not even close to the sound of original ATR. makes sound too mono and over compressed even on a low level. Sounds good as slap delay though.

perfect addition to Ampex
After working with UAD Ampex (which is in EVERY of my mixes - mostly on the stereo bus) i've fetched the Studer to my toolchain and are happy again - while the Ampex felivers a more subtle, but more "broad" affecting enhancement on nearly any stereo/mix bus the Studer seems to packing more heavily onto tracks, making it ideal for individual tracks to me. Compared to i.e. WAVES Kramer Master Tape it sound's a hearable step more higher / forward. This is an addicting tool which you will buy if you hear it - even. with the presets. As a next step i'll try to experiment with it as a sound design tool and investigate i.e. delaying / modulation "tricks" with it. From my view this (both) are just the best tape emus for mixing and mastering.

Sounds like a real tape machine!
This emulates tape so well! thats all that needs to be said. I can choose different types of tape, and I can change th IPS. That's all I need. It's great.

Oh my dearest Studer :*
I tried the demo and was astonished what is possible with tape saturation.
You can add not only warmth, but shaping e.g. your whole track in every (analog) direction when it comes to rock, stoner, jazz, swing, etc.. I was able to fullfill the dreams of a stonerrock band I recorded which demanded a kind of analog "rolled-of-highs" sound with nice and subtle saturation. And everything without loosing their mojo; the studer added in opposite of this MORE mojo and this is only ONE of the cases I was able to give the musicians what they wanted!

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.

Its so attractive its MAGNETIC
Amazing quality of sound. You would be hard pressed to make anything running through it NOT sound so much better. Great job UA. Adam, Sydney AUS

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.

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.

Ampex Atr-102
This is a game changer. You will need to turn up your air conditioning!
S. Sigfridsson
Awesome!
Really helpful to fatten up a mix by adding subtile changes to the sounds that makes it all sound a bit more like a record! I also use on my mix busses/summing tracks to liven up things. Its chorus and delay features are really nice as well!

My GO TO for mastering
Im late to this review, but Ive owned this plug for over 3 years now and it took my masters to the next level. I now slap it on the end of all of my chains (right before the limiter) and it does beautiful things to mixes.

Amazing!
After owning and using numerous tape machines through the 80's and 90's including the Ampex ATR-102, I was dying to hear this plug-in. WOW! it is so simple to use and sounds so good on the mix/master. After being away from recording for some time it has been inspiring to come back and have possibilities available like this plug-in to utilize and create with. Highly recommended as a must have tool in your tool chest!
Thanks UA for making this a reality.

Magic for your Mix!
So far, I'd have to say this is my favorite UA plugin so far. It sounds incredible on everything. I have to repeat what everyone else is saying regarding the Ampex. I've been using this on the the master and it just blends everything together so well. It really has been like magic on my final sound. I was hooked after the first day of using it. Love this plugin. Demo it. I think you'll feel the same way.
