Love it!!
It "is" the glue I was looking for! I love the way it makes the mix more alive.

Great on drums and guitars
These seems to work great on many things, but I particularly like it on individual drum and guitar (electric and acoustic) tracks. I usually don't use many presets, but the included ones are great for getting in the ballpark and then a quick tweak to get it just right. Gang control is awesome for working across multiple tracks.

MUST HAVE!!!
Absolute MUST HAVE plugin. Better get it while it's on sale! Gives amazing harmonic distortion. Gives it such a human feel to everything. It's those subtle artifacts that makes for an amazing mix. 5/5
Everything from Vocals, to Synths (sometimes it just gives it that extra 'oomph' you need), DRUMS. DRUMS. DRUMS. DRUMS. Guitars, Piano. I mean everything.

YES! YES! YEA!
Okay I am so old thet i actually learned the trade by using 24 track machines. Of course I had to leave them behind like so many others. The price of keeping them running, l and the price of tape, and the lack of editing possibilities, and, and ,and.
But i have never stopped longing for the sound and the tapesaturation you could achieve when gaining tracks different on the tape. But this plugin does a pretty good job giving me that back! I love it!

E. Sokolowski
Amazing versatility
This plugin can offer tape vibe in spades, or just a hair of analogue feel depending on how its set up and driven. Takes a little bit of learning to get the most out of it, but its a lot of fun.
E. Taponen
Very nice
Being new to this, I started with presets which are great and of course easily tweakable. Really adds warmth and power to the recording.

Fabulous Analogue Character
Such a great tool to add that warm tape distortion that I grew up with. Fantastic on guitars, the drum bus or even on the overall mix bus.
M. Miller-Loran
works all over the place
fantastic for subtle color, or to crush your sounds into lo-fi oblivion. highly recommended.
S. Tenryu
Great warm analog sound
I purchased this plugin for real analog simulation sound.
I love this real warm sound and perfect laughness sound. I also like sound color. We can add richness for sound in mixing work. Finally, I'm really proud this plugin.
G. Twydell
Great!
Adds a great warm colour to the sound...
Sounds so good on drums, and driving the bass into it really hard!
M. Bellotto
Bass
I was amazed when I put it at the end of my plywood upright bass channel chain. The bass sounds forward, wider, and clear. Hollowness is diminished.

Adds the Tape Flavor Well
Gives character to a sterile-sounding mix. Used it in a mastering situation to add a little bit of that tape saturation/natural compression. Tracking to it gives your tracks that gushy-tapey feel. Very tweakable.

Student A800
This is the stuff that make true to life recordings. It gives digital recordings the breath of realism it needs to be believable.

Really Glues a Mix Together
The Studier A800 lives on all of my busses. I love the way it handles drum transients and the harmonic content and gentle tape compression it ads really helps to glue a mix together. I usually run it at 15 or 30ips with GP9 (using CCIR on 15ips) and love the subtle character it imparts. The auto-cal feature with the ability to over-ride it and change the bias is a nice touch.
