TRUE DRUM GLUE
When I was interning at Studio West in San Diego, they have one of these in Room A. This console sound great when tracking anything but was I personally loved it on was drums. The room has an SSL 4000 console as well, one day I was assisting a session and patched everything into the SSL because that was the "Magic Console" the engineer nicely asked me to switch it all over to the Neve for drum tracking. Once we switch it was like the drums came to life, after that I started using the Waves version of this plugin and it didn't really hit home, finally upgraded to an Apollo 8 and demoed this right out the gate after one mix session I bought it. This plugin gives a life that the console does and is simply amazing. JUST BUY IT!

Sounds great
Great sound . The EQ is amazing. Ideal for quick recording when you can not bring your preamp rack

Very Impressive
This EQ sounds amazing. It has the warmest sound ever. You can't go wrong with this Neve EQ. It can make someone who doesn't know how to sing sound like as if they've been singing for 25 years. Thank you Universal Audio for making a phenomenal EQ.

88RS in my production studio!!!
Haven't worked on an 88RS in a while. I love the legacy version and held off buying this version for a bit cause I didn't see the need. I rolled the dice and bought it. I definitely does make a difference having this plug in on the mic pre. Sounds smooth with all sources hitting the pre. I like to drive it a little to get more warmth and definitely shines in this arena. Before I primarily used the 610A as a warm pre, which I still like to use for color. But there is nothing like having this console sound married to the recordings. Great job. A once nearly unattainable product is now in my grasp. This console is one of my favorites to work on. Now I have full automation control in my DAW on the mix and tracking... it is the swiss army knife.

Use it on pretty much everything. Breaths life on tracks on the way in.

Amazing!
I bought the Legacy version of this and used it a lot, so was a bit gutted when I found out I had to shell out $150 for the new version. However, it really is worth it. The sound is more open and has that analogue drive you want. I also love the 1073 equipment and pre, but this is that bit more refined, with the added bonus of gate and compressor.
I recently put this on a master channel at mix down of an old session I was re-mastering and it just added that professional gloss and zing you want.
Lovely. Thanks UA!

Outstanding Emulation - QUIT WHINING!
You people should be ashamed of yourselves by rating the product so low just because you don't wanna pay the upgrade fee. It is worth the $149. It adds new features. Why complain about it when they are adding UNISON to the Channel Strip? Same thing happened to the 1073 and the reviews weren't affected by the winners non sense. You can't be a serious professional if you refuse to understand how a company spends thousands to develop and perfect a product. Stupid, childish and amateur. Quit the "loyalty" BS. The product is worth the price and it sounds great. $149 worth of this whining??? Most of you have used plenty of coupons and vouchers that are given on a regular basis. I don't know a company that gives more vouchers than UA. GROW UP!

Stellar
Just purchased an Octo satellite, just so I could get the 88RS on every track.
Yep - it's that good...even if it's a hungry beast.
Having never worked with the hardware version, I can't really say what the similarities and differences are, but for my purposes as a professional songwriter having mainly to deliver convincing demos to critical ears in US and France, this is amazing.
I especially love what the vintage character does to the modern pop music-domain which is what I'm working with.
Stellar...

This plugin is awesome I have been trying to get that warm sound on my production for years, never thought anyone would be able to truly emulate the sound of the 1073 Neve preamp I now use this on most if not all of my projects. I'd like to say well done! UAD this was worth every penny! Extremely happy no need to travel miles pay silly money anymore in over priced studios. Can capture that vintage warm sound on my mixes in my own studio without breaking the bank!

Monster Sound
This plug-in adds significantly more gain, and enhances the presence of any mic I attach. I'm glad I purchased it. I only wish I had bought into the Universal Audio family years ago instead of piecing together cheap hardware interfaces and mic-pres.

A great update saves the 88RS from obscurity
The Legacy 88RS had become a seldom used plugin, something I might pull out if I was looking for a soft, "mushy' eq. And definitely not something that normally worked for me on multiple channels. I demo'd the update on a song that featured the legacy on several channels, starting with lead vocals, and immediately heard depth, clarity, smoothness. I ended up replacing all of the legacies with the update with almost the exact same settings, and the result was dramatic and satisfying. Now the legacy version just sounds flat and lifeless. Probably the best UAD update experience I have had, and worth the price.

Best tool so far
It's simply a Neve Console. So put it on everything and the Wow-difference will be there. I really appreciate your work UA!

A Swiss Army Tool
This one is definitely my go-to weapon for any kind of source now. You can't go wrong with it. It fattens bass tracks, gives drums a layer of shine, and gives vocals depth and clarity like no other tool. It just sounds beautiful. It's a great addition to my system.

NEVE 88RS collection is a 4.5 STARS!!!!
This mkII is a beautiful plugin!!!
Neve channel it sounds really good!
The 88RS adds a wonderful 'mojo': 3D sound, clarity, subtle and very musical thd; much more euphonics and analog when compared to the old version!!A modern and analog sound class in the digital domain!
EQ is a fantastic tool, intuitive...and is perfect for sculpt the sound, the compressor/limiter are punchy.Onestly, I have not tried the GATE/EXP.
This is a very good job, and I think most people should stop leave negative feedback for the DSP usage and/or for the upgrade price!!
For a great sound, complex algorithms are needed...and for the price, I have bought it for 99$ (just wait for the sales and coupons).

HolySnap !
My god i was not a big fan of the older uad 88rs except for the use of gate which i loved but this new one is n another level more like NBA vs highschool comparison in sound. A client dropped off a pro tools session with his vocal recorded through some cheap focusrite 8i6 n sm7 n sounded dull n tiny. I inserted this new 88rs and drove the preamp section to 2 pm n added some 10-15 k eq which gave me a sweet smooth silky sizzly sound and of course the quick gate with some light compression and BOOM"
it sounded like he used a original c12 on his vocals n sounded like I ran him through my aurora audio gtq2!
uad please keep up the amazing work! im waiting for ssl 4k reissue ' I m selling some of my outboard gear becuz of this experience

Neve 88rs update
I clearly don't understand the bitching about the 88rs update!
If you purchase more UA gear and I'm sure you will
All you have to do is add the 88rs in your cart when they
Offer 6 plugins for $799 or use coupons that UA always add to your
account.
It's always away around road blocks! I have never had a problem with
getting help from UA.
I am sure the SSL pluggin will be a costly update, however it my pleasure
to wisely pay up.
Good luck!
