Analoge Gold in all it's Digital Splendour!
What can I say about the Legendary LA-2A and this amazing plugin version that hasn't already been said...nothing much.
It's the workhorse compressor everyone needs and loves. But it.
F. Sparagna
A fantastic tool!
This is a simple yet immediate tool, it can instanly give that particular enhance that the track needs without mess around with a tons of settings.
L. Rollins
Quick and easy, no fuss
A nice additional tape option for the arsenal. Recommended if you like to set it and forget it as there are not many settings to manipulate.
S. PARK
Must have it.
When I need something in my mix.
Put it in.
will figure out what this is able to do.
I can't resist not to use.
M. Cartwright
great and quick to get a vibe
I like how quickly you can get a ballpark tone with this plugin collection. I am quite sure it will be my "go to" eq in my plugin collection. great for zoning in on a bass tone and painting the picture. I typically use the 1176 and LA 2A compressors first and place this next in the chain.

Good low cost alternative to Studer
For only $100, you can get a pretty solid tape emulation. It doesn't consume tons of DSP or CPU, and it's good for not-so-extreme settings. I'll put it over a lot of drums, and the main controls I mess with are the input and outputs.
I haven't figured out all of it's secrets or really amazing settings, but the IPS speeds are pretty cool to flip between and the noise reduction is a nice touch.
Just state your goal, and push the input until you get the color you want!

Amazing
Very subtle !

Great plugin!
Wow! This plugin is a must have. I've demoed the ATR 102 and Studer A800. I found that Oxide is in the same league with these. Don't be skeptical because of its low price. Use it and you'll know what I'm saying.

Simple and efficient!
This is a great tool to add instant tape saturation to any source. Just insert the plugin, chose a preset that suits your audio source and from there just play with the controls. It's that easy. Sure the Ampex and the Studer are more complex and more dynamic but this little beast it's just perfect for fast workflow. Great job UA!
A. Avelin
Sounds great
It's so easy to use and it sounds great. You don't have the flexibility of the Studer A 800 but if you just want to give your track some warmth quick and easy, this one is great!
A. West
Pristine Quality and Realistic
It's all been said so I will just say this is as close as your going to get without spending a few G's on a hardware version. It is a must have for everything from Vocals, Acoustic Guitar to Drums, Bass and Lead Guitar or Piano! You need this to get that sound.

Smooth and Deep Bass Kicks
I'm not writing this review to get a coupon or something but the Oxide tape is just amazing on the kick drums. Recently I had to EQ a track which was miked near the sound hole of a Cajon and I tried using an eq to get a nice round punchy sound but in vain. Probably I should go back to my book on EQs. Anyway I just put this tape across the track and there I was smiling " What the Fish has UAD put into these things? This was just the sound I was looking for...!!!"

Great tape saturation - easy on CPU
So satisfying to add 30+ channels of saturation on tracks and instantly have them play fatter and smoother. Even more satisfying to see that it is so easy on CPU.

Pretty Dope
I can't lie, this thing is awesome. Really brings out the depth in just about any source.. Even on the Mix Bus.
D. Maurer
as good as you think
LOUD!
