Not just for mastering
This bad boy is suitable for many mixing/production needs as well as being the perfect addition to your mastering chain.

Never heard like this before
I tried out the 14 days version for mastering, and I never heard like this before.
It was like... WOW...
I was in a dilemma to buy it... Because the half year sale is ended on July 4th, and I didn't buy it.
But luck was on my side, I bought it on July 5th in the morning with the reduced price... :)))
This is the No.1 tool on my mastering chain.
It sounds amazing. It's doing its job very good.
MIB has reached a new level.
Highly recommended.

Big up for Shadow Hills
Honestly , I never had the original one in my hands so I can't compare but , the work of this plug is really amazing. The possibilities are infinite and whatever could be the sound you look for, you just can find it ( with a bit of patience if you're not really good at using compressions). The very good point is that fine compressions are really powerful and transparent and fat compressions are always with an esthetic point really interesting which is rarely the case with plugs . Clearly , if I had to choose one compressor for my uad system, it would be this one.

This really is a musical compressor. I use it sparingly on particular tracks and the result is always musical beautiful and warm. It adds rather than subtracts to a track. I love it.

This sounds stunning... If you wanna to make some experiments between the three amazing transformers...you will find some differences on the sound taste. This compressor is not aggressive a it gives you the sound that you need without the harmonic changes that other compressors does. In few words...if you are going to master some tracks...this guy is your best pal.

Tweakable
I first used this plugin as a 14-day demo on something I was mixing. Tired of the gluey SSL compressor I'm used to, I needed something that would waken up the mix of an incredibly sad song. I stumbled across the nickel transformer feature – it offered a gentle presence in the mix that I was missing. I kept putting off the purchase of this plugin to test within myself if I really would miss it. And as we we all know, time is a teller, (and so is the lady at the bank) so time told me to buy this. I learned that I couldn't live without this plugin so I bought the damed thing and I'm glad I did.
My next goal is to get the real hardware version.

Awesome
This plug in has breathed new energy into my drums as well as the master bus in multiple sessions. Fantastic sound.

A true analog compressor inside my computer!
Surprising and very realistic, the sound seems to be being processed by a real analog compressor. my masters won presence, battery channels, bass, etc., has a truly vintage sound.

Serious bit of kit..
Really happy with this compressor, never heard the real thing but love what this brings to the table.. 5 stars.

Brilliant compressor
SHMC is truly an awesome compressor. From subtile warmth to heave tube gritty.
It is perfect for getting vocals level and cutting them into the mix.
I also use this at the end of the master chain to get a really nice warmth to it.
Absolutely a must have plugin for everyone.

So good, cant live without it !

Great for Finishing
This compressor is great for finishing a mix that is close. It does super smooth, it does a little distortion, and it has a great range of overall flavor from the three output stage options. Try one color on the drums, one on bass, another across all the instruments, and a final on the vocals. Find the spot for each of them where they get a little bigger and a little more full but still maintain their thing. Takes some tweaking, but definitely worth it.

Espectacular.
Muy contento de tener un plug-in de esta calidad para masterizar en mi casa ..... !!!
Gracias UAD.
S. Ghadaban
Awsome!
Beside the 1176 and LA-2A one of the best UAD Compressor emulations....a "must have" in my opinion.
Gives drums and percussion more body and punch. On the stereobus it delivers a warm, huge and powerful sound. Especially deep house and hip-hop mixes profit a lot from this compressor. Sounds like real hardware. Really magical sound!
But the best is that this plug-in is so CPU friendly. It really earns 5 stars...definitely!

The drum helper
This mastering plug did his magic for me on my drum samples, it made it crisp and firm, cutting thru the mix as i wanted! A real go to!!
V. Beccia
Sexy and spooky
This plug in is awesome.
It's there unseemingly, almost perfectly transperant and non evasive.
Using this with the Manly Massive Passive and Ampex Plug ins at either end on the master stereo buss rocks.
Very versatile as a track comp though best in groups or mains.
Time spent with this plug is well invested and ultimately sonically rewarding if used wisely.
Absolute no brainer!

I love the big knobs
It's amazing: with an blink of an eye and you finally see the light (Aerosmith)... and you finally hear the difference!!!
Use the stuff as a buss-compressor on the drums and it is so much better than the stuff i normaly use. You can add puch, room, colour, feeling and whatever you want - and the best thing is: it sounds verry musically, or as we say in German: "Das Teil bläst dich um!"
Well done job UA!!!
