Are you Tape experienced
Came with Apollo USB Twin promo - I've experimented with it - yes it does as advertised.
Research saves resources.

My number one tape
This tape machine is my absolute favorite. It has the sound characteristic i crave for. It is easy to tweak and not only glues the instruments together; it gives them depth and warmth. Although with very few adjustments available it does give big possibilities. I preferred this Oxide Tape to the Studer multi track.
A song recorded on this Oxide tape and the whole printed to the Ampel Master Tape . . . just fantastic!

Just has 'that' sound.
After owning the LA2A Legacy version I was putting off getting the updated version but the newer versions knock the legacy version out the water completely. Different league of plugin. The LA2A just has that positive effect that when you stick it on a vocal it just works. Only problem is now I need more DSP power...

The Vocals Comp
The la2a is the vocals compressor to have, work great on guitar and more, a must have. Get it now.

My standard EQ for years now
Can just do wonders to the low and top ends where most of the problems are. Really smooth. I use it in combination with a Neve 1081 (this provides the bite and presence).

Perfect companion to the Studer and Ampex
Although I own both the Studer and the Ampex as well, the Oxide is brilliant for instant tape saturation with minimal tweaking of parameters. Just dial in the input and output for quick and easy harmonic distortion. Don't be fooled by the appearance of the plugin though, it uses as much DSP as the Studer.

Sounds so close to the real thing!
I have worked with hardware LA2A's and I have to say these emulations sound almost identical. I love tracking through them and definitely worth the upgrade!
L. Angulo
Nice but...

the go to leveler
i was a bit sceptical as i already had the legacy version but when ive tried it its was a no brainer, absolutely worth it 100 times!
M. Jones

Tape delay in a nice way!

Hear it and you'll know where tu put it.
You only may to put on a track or bus. Oxide do that "thing"!! Compression, saturation, eq and bring up the low end. Is a combination of that things and you only need to put without any touch more. Simply.

WHEN IT COMES TO PRO EQ - IT'S SIMPLY THE BEST! AND....UAD's is Better!!!
I can't Pull It Off without the Pultecs. I thought I'd copy all the presets from the Legacy and be good to go. Well, it almost worked. But...I want my mixes to sound the best they can...and I ended up buying the Pultec Passive EQ Collection. There's some very cool tricks the old dogs did with these so, READ THE MANUAL! Look around on the web....you'll find em'. Like the cut/boost trick. It works. Thanks UA. Isn't this just amazing?! - GILROY

Magic
this plugin is like a magic with vocal you have to use .
A. Auinger
Exactly what I wanted
One-Job plugin. Does exactly what it imagined. Not as versatile as the Ampex, but half the price, so yeah, I love it.

Great colorful EQs!
These bad boys sound amazing.
They've become my go to plugins for pretty much all colorful EQ tasks from the mixing to the mastering stage.
Good job UAD!

LA2a collection review
Best sounding opto compressor that I have heard. I have a pair of hardware la2a clones and I use the UA to add color to my tracks. Can't wait to buy the Pultec collection. UA, hurry up with a discount offer for them.

Great classic echo
As close as it gets to that real tape based echo sound.
