Great for heavy guitars, damn near everything else
This is my absolute favorite high-gain guitar EQ; the frequency selections are perfect and it gets you where you need to go quickly. It has a pleasing overall tone and "vibe". It can be more surgical than many of the other UAD EQs, but still broad enough to remain a "character" eq. I'm a fan.

First off I purchased this plugin for$199 and it was on sale for 129 I called sales and left a message of the mistake and no one got back to me I also contacted support and still no one got back to me so you really don't want my review you guys need to make this right now let's see what you do other than that I love it

Just great. Again!
Just like the 33609, this adds some serious cream to anything you put through it. If only I had enough DSP to use it on every channel...
A. Bodochi Ursu
Great Plugin!!!
As usual UAD delivers with this one again!
I only wish I had more DSP on my system (Apollo 8 quad) so I can put it on all the groups in the mix.
Haven't tried tracking with it yet so I cannot pronounce on the Unison Technology but I'm more than sure that it just does exactly what they say in the tutorial/promo video!
Bottom line, great sound, can use it on everything. Tried it on the Masterbus and it just makes it go WOW... :)

Very happy with this plugin, a one unmistakable characteristic. Really amazing this eq. I recommend! Thanks UAD.

Utterly fantastic
I read that David Gilmour of Pink Floyd has one of these consoles on his houseboat, and being a fan of the Endless River album they released not too long ago, I decided to get in deep with this plugin. It is utterly fantastic. The sound is both pristine yet inviting. The compressor has this great way of bringing a track to the forefront in a very pleasing way. Really awesome on synthesizers (yes, outboard and soft synths both) and vocals for sure. The EQ does its own thing - it sounds distinctly different from, say, the 1073, yet provides some great sound sculpting tools. The overall sound: clear, open, present, beautiful - at least for my purposes. Combine with the UA compressors for color and you are rolling!

Uses too much DSP
i am a home studio mixer and own an apollo Twin. The big disappointment with this strip is that one instance of it uses about 21% of my total DSP resource !! So after using it on one mix I'm never going to use it again. It just sucks too much resource.
It was also listed at two prices - I bought it for $229 on sale then it was also listed for $129 i believe and I had already purchase the more expensive "version". This happened within about 5 minutes of completing my purchase.
Big disappointment this round of dealing with UA. I would not recommend this plug in unless you are a serious studio with a lot of outbound DSP capability.
I WISH US WOULD HAVE LISTED THIS IN THE DESCRIPTION - THEY NEED A COMPATIBILITY CHART

Best Neve EQ
I was looking for the best equalizer for guitars. And I found it... Neve 1081. If you try to work with him, make sure that it works well on any material

Very fast results!!!!
This plugin is very nice, It is a fast way to get that old school sound without having to use several distortions plugins and eqs. would be nice with some auto gain compensation because this plugin ads alot of db.

So that's How it's Done!!
I have never used the 1073 hardware or recorded vocals thru anything but an inexpensive interface. I have always tried to fix the mix with plugins. I recently purchased an Apollo USB and decided to give the 1073 unison preamp a go with a tube mic. I finally found out how the Big Boys get their sound. The preamp was stellar at bringing my vocals out and warming them up. I am just blown away with the quality of this rig. My struggles are over and its back to making more music and less fixing it. I'm sure I will be purchasing more unison technology and expanding my studio. Hooray for UAD. I did purchase for 149.00 with a discount and 2 coupons only to find it on sale the next month for 129.00. I'm not gonna complain got work to do.

Very close to 88RS Console
Looks like to sitting on the real NEVE console!

AMAZING!!! A step beyond what I thought was possible!
The Neve 88RS Channel Strip has made things possible that I didn't even know existed! I'm using the Apollo Twin USB and this plugin loves it! So musical and with a little bit of a learning curve the expander/gate section is a Godsend! I love the EQ section probably the most and I'm using a Rode K2 tube condenser mic that has been made even more effective with this brilliant plugin!!

Love it
Definately my new go to EQ! Love the ease of use and how it sounds on just everything! Thx UA
M. Swain
Brilliant (that's British for 'awesome'!)
Yep! Money very well spent ...

Not my kind.
I am a huge fan of the 1073 and use it for almost every vocal recording. I demoed the RS88 before and although it didn't impressed me instantly I (sadly) bought it as part of a custom satellite bundle. Until now for me it seems an unnecessary purchase: it has no special character like for example the 1073 and is quite complex to use. For me as a home recordist it simply takes too long to find a good setting, not suitable for instant and lonely recording sessions. Preset organization could be done thematically. Not suitable as a standard recording channel because it takes too much DSP power. It might be a swiss knife if you know how to treat it right but I prefer different Compressors and Eq's. Not my kind. Hopefully, not yet.

Fantastic !!!
i think one the best! in every channel or buss you can hear the right sound! with eq switch "on" all the feeling rise up , try it and buy it! ok more dsp killer but you can mixdown the tracks if insert before all , and than use it...
J. Raper
Everything I hoped it would be
What an amazing character to both the EQ and the Unison Pre.
Been using this to track vocals and guitar and its out of the this world!
Love it and use it every session.

I Just Neve 88RS and go
Honestly. How does one mix drums without this beast?
I Used to use all sorts of un-wholesome chains of analog and digital to shape just one channel: Eqs, 2 or 3 compressors, gates, limiters... tape.. bah! Now I just slap an 88rs across it first. A bit of Eq, some expansion, some squish... Boom. Drums sound done.
Seriously, this is the equivalent of that dude who can't be bothered to take both shampoo and conditioner into the shower....
I just Neve 88RS and go :D
