Oxide Tape Recorder
wow!! simply amazing. the best I've heard.

Great EQ you have to listen to!!!
This EQ make your records sound unique by only putting it on the channel. But when you want to shape your sound, so you're able to do it just without concentrating on any graphs and parameters. All you should do is listen to it and this is the beauty of this plug-in.

Love the character/Color
This is obviously very versatile. Like the way i can push things hard or just soft. But i just love the character/color the LA-2A silver offers.
Thanks to UA for this amazing emulation.

Bob-a-job
Never used a real hardware version, and had only previous experience with the legacy (which was still nice), and the Waves one.... But now I'm just even more confused what separates them and makes them all different.. they are nice though.

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).

So far so good
I like Gray a lot, for tracking and for keeping things warm. Also it's really smooth. Silver is a bit more drastic and gives that natural brightness but I feel it takes away lows even if you apply 0 gain reduction, this can be beneficial for some instruments. I used it on the mix bus along with a Maxxbass and it worked just fine. Didn't really use the LA-2A(3rd one) a lot yet, so I can't say much for that one.
I bought this bundle because I wanted to upgrade my LA-2A classic and it feels I took the right choice, much fuller and characteristic sounds so far.

Although you may not believe.
Amazingly, Teletronix LA, has left me surprised at the quality, power, clarity, warmth and many others that if I mention this because not end my review, I did not know that a plugin could be as accurate compared to a real piece, imagine all the big bucks you can save with these emulators.
It is clear that only plug-ins Universal Audio admit they are the best and Realistic, have over 20 years experience in the industry as a producer and I have dealt with almost all plugins from different companies that may exist, and only Universal Audio me has given the results with ease, speed and great analog sound all go looking today to combat the digital herror.

Oxide work perfectly, I use it on every track. I love it !
P. Amati
Amazing!
Great sounding and versatile effects plugin. Love the variety of presets and uses. Its amazing what you can do with just the feedback and echo rate.. The only thing that would make it better is if I was able to control the settings from my MIDI keyboard...

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!

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.
