Sound Good, But...
This Plugin sounds really excellent, after buying this one and the API I am asking me if I really need other EQ`s like pultec and co.
Minus one star for misleading manual, I f****d my brains for half of a hour until I realized that those Gate and Compressor diagrams are not quite right. For example the "range" is put in the wrong space. The explanations of Hysterisis is not clear enough...
It makes a little bit suspect, all the hype about the analog sound and how amazing it is, makes me thing those manuals are about selling and not the technical correctness.
p.s. - UA go with time and offer the possibility of external Sidechaining for you compressors and dry/wet Mixknob.

Awesome
Love this guy on overheads, snare and guitars. If you have the 1073, get this to complement it

Best preamp/eq combination ever!
I loved the original unit so much for nearly everything, but like most could not afford the cost of the big studios that have these modules so when the plugin version came out I was stoked! It sounds like the real deal and the eq is very musical. An instant classic for a reason!

A Big Hit on the record!
I Known this unit here in México city in Estudio 19 from the owner Francisco Miranda, and now I have one of the classic "obligados" peace of gear, it's simply put the plugin on your Drums, snare, kick or where you want it and then check the difference, the best is the preamp saturation and color when you use it put the plug and voila! Is the classic Neve sound, very nice, very perfect your tracks would be sound like in the great leagues!

Enhance your sound and extend your EQ Palette
I A lush yet powerful EQ...a must have for vocal shaping also great on FX's. This eq works great on soulful vocals.

Adorable.
Well, I've tested all the UAD Preamps, which I just saw. But this Preamp... Ah, love it. It is just what I need. TREMENDOUS thanks!!!

1073 Flavor at a Fraction of the Cost
This thing is amazing! All 4 of my pre's now sound remarkably close to a vintage desk (without the unpredictable vibe of course). This plugin kicks ass when used with the Unison Preamp Technology on the Apollo and the EQs are amazing.

Beautiful Channel Strip
Very nice channel strip. You'll find similar application and features to the SSL Channel, but with a little more clarity and warmth. I would say the 88 is a great combo of smooth velvet sound but with a modern, clean, hi-fi function. Not as punchy as the SSL, but a powerful addition to your mix tool box.
Try on bass, kick and piano.
The Unison Pre is fantastic too. Similar vibe, clean, clear and hi-fi with a nice touch of warmth.
Fairly easy on resources, all things considered.

Brilliant
Had a friend in the 90's down in Montreux working on a Neve 8048 in Mountain Studio. This plugin delivers the magic. Love it and use it on every track. This plugin is my goto for nearly everything. With the 33609 a killer combo. Interesting to see, how something (the hardware) after over 40 years has lost nothing of it's coolness. And furthermore it's bloody fast to work with. No fiddling for years to get that sound. Buy it!

Great PreAmp
There is not much to talk about!! This plugin and many others from Universal Audio are really excellent!!! I have lot of fun with so much newness of new plugins!!! This one is a great pre Amp!! I recommend it

Simply beautiful!
Simply beautiful is what describes the sound (color) you hear once you insert the Neve 31102 Claasic Console EQ on your drum & instrument tracks. A true UAD 5 Star plugin. Now if I can just get the 1073 and the 1081, I'll own the complete UAD Neve collection!

Neve 1073 is truly versatile and easy on the ears
One of the things I've had to really work hard at over the years has been getting a vocal to shine without having harsh or brittle artefacts. The 1073 solved that problem immediately, as soon as I placed it on the track. I've been using plugins from just about every plugin maker out there for years but this is the first time I've had that "wow" experience. And it happened because the 1073 just added that bit of subtle color and brought the vocal track from really good to great. Now I'm using it with my Apollo 8, taking advantage of the unison feature, recording with a Neumann TLM 107 and it's replacing my very good Summit hardware mic pre. Great vocal sound from the get-go with no nasty artefacts. Thanks, UAD folks, you've really helped me go forward in my musical journey. I couldn't be happier.

DONT EVEN READ THIS JUST BUY IT!!!
During my career I've had the opportunity to work on both Neve and SSL consoles. I fell in love with the Neve VR 36. I've been eyeing this plugin for a while and finally got a chance to check it out. It feels and sounds like the console with the pull knobs.I wanted to get something that provides all the tools needed Dynamic and EQ processing wise and there was a tug a war battle between the API and the 88rs and I went with my gut and Im satisfied with what I chose.

Fantastic Sound
Warm, vibey and gritty - this thing sound fabulous on drums and vocals and just about everything in between.
A real must have for working with digital recordings.
H. Hsieh

G. Figueroa

My best plug-in purchase
Magic, pure magic.
My recommendation if you looking for your first channel strip plugin or Unison pre-amp (it will be your favourite channel strip next to the API and SSL)
The pre-amp is an improved 1073 (if you consider a 1073 with a little less colour as an improvement).
The eq is smooth clean and rich. The compressor is smooth and clean. The gate is excellent.
(Smooth and clean does not mean stock DAW it means what great analog equipment was working towards, doing its job and not getting in the way but being present)
To me Neve was always just the 1073. Judging by my experience with this plug-in. I love the Neve 88RS console and the company has definitely built on Mr Rupert's work.
My recommendation if you want to have an analog mixing experience ITB.

High quality audio
Dial in your settings and achieve beautiful results in no time. This will easily become a go-to plugin. One of the top choices anyone should consider in their collection.
