Game Changer
I've been reluctant to go from recording to 8 track Tape to completely digital setup, as I value the warmth and compression that tracking to Tape gives you. This plugin has finally persuaded me to take the leap. I honestly can't hear a difference between the Oxide plugin or real tape. In fact I might say that this plugin sounds warmer than my tape machine!

Love the CCIR EQ setting
I love the way the CCIR EQ setting gives a vintage brightness to the tone. Along with the beautiful saturation I can get with it, I normally choose this over the 6 other tape plug-ins I own.

Great
Great. №1 for drums and percussion. Small pale Kick began to sound tight and confident. Lonely Snare made friends with the song. Only two handles - INPUT and OTPUT! Magic!

Amazing!!!
I also own the studer and the ampeg, but the oxide sound different: warm, Punchy.. Love it, Easy to use.
Simply amazing.
The best I've heard.
Great job UA!!!!

Great plugin for a great price.
Great little plug. I also own the Ampex ATR-102 and at first thought that would be enough, but the Oxide is capable of putting a great little lofi crunch on guitars, bass, etc -- just enough to warm it up and give it some grit, a little edge, and cut off some of those hi's to give it some of that analog tape vibe (if that's what you're going for...which I am!)

Simple et efficace
Je n'étais pas familier du tout des émulations de bandes et me demandais ce que cela apportait vraiment. Je l'ai utilisé sur des bois et des cordes principalement et le rendu est vraiment bluffant. Le son semble bien plus chaud et précis. En plus, il est simple d'utilisation.

wow!! simply amazing. the best I've heard.

instant tape sound
I also own the studer and the ampeg, but the oxide is faster to dial in and sounds different: 7,5 for cleaning up mud in the low mid range (great for bass or e-piano), 15 for warmth and sizzling harmonics with Ccir-EQ (vocals, acoustic guitar...). Very good preset-organisation, too. I wish there would be comparable presets for other plugs (organized in terms of use/instrument than in terms famous knob-twisters).

Another great colour for your tonal palette....
I own and love the other 2 UAD tape sims (Ampex and Studer), so I didn't give this one much of a look when it came out. That was a mistake! Curiosity got the best of me and eventually I tried it out...and was so impressed I had to pick it up. This is a different thing entirely to the Studer and Ampex (and Slate VTM, for that matter) - and as a general purpose tape sim that takes very little processing power (and is CHEAP) it really can't be beat! I have certain uses for the others where they always shine, but I end up with more instances of this in mix sessions than the others now. If you own any of the others and have been thinking owning this would be redundant, you should definitely hit the demo button and let this one speak for itself.

Gets the job done in a simple way
Very strait forward plugin. You will immediately hear the warmth. A must have.

My Favorite tape plug-in
I own the Studer and Ampex but this is my favorite. Partly because it sounds so good, and partly because it's so easy to use. Love it!
K. Christian

Great Low-Cost Tape Emulation
For the money, it's unbeatable----the UAD Studer plugin has more adjustable options, but the BASIC SOUND of the Oxide plugin is right up there with the Studer in my opinion. It adds the depth and dimension I really miss from the analog tape machine days. Great on drums [kick phenomenally].........I predict I will be using it on more and more instruments as I experiment further.....Highly recommend.
R. Costa
Simple and sounds great!
For now I‘m just using oxide with acoustic recordings and sounds really great. And very DSP "friendly"! Thank you!
K. Trakz
Love the low end character on this one.
This unit is actually strapped to every input on my Apollo has I track into it. It's being used in both recording and for vocals for my radio show on shake108.com. It just gives the source that extra push that's needed to sound awesomer lol. Worth the purchase.

Excelent
I have both Studer 800 and Ampex ATR 102, but Oxide give some special touch on each inserted chanel very simple for manipulate with great tape simulation result.Thank you Uad for such a great release.
