Pure Vintage Love With PolyMax!
You can make 100s of songs just by using the présents. A mix of the classic Jupiter 8 and the old Ob .. Love IT!

Amazing sounds!
Such a simple but beautiful interface and really intuitive to use. It’s so easy to get great sounding leads and basses - my new favourite synth!
R. Patriarca
Amazing sound quality and ease of use. Inspiration ready!
PolyMAX was a great surprise. It has a unique sound quality, is effortless to use, and does not get in the way of the creativity flow. It is slowly becoming my go-to synth for all the pads, leads, and synth basses.

User interface is not fully visible
The user interface is not fully visible, which unfortunately means that some parameters cannot be adjusted. Until this problem is corrected, the synth is unusable.

Great sound and character, for classic tape slap or crazy fx. Also nice to overdrive the input

Very simple controls, but has an amazing silky sound, love it on anything
T. Poe
Awesome!
I love this especially in console for my Hi-Z guitar input. Allows me to easily practice guitar with a pleasing tone without even opening my DAW!

It's good not great
I LOVE a good delay and the more words it gets the more I love it. I'm all fairness, in part I am reviewing the unit itself as well as UAD profile of the unit.
As far as the unit itself (software), it's limiting. There aren't as many tonal options as I had hoped for. THIS HAS NOT ANYTHING TO DO WITH UAD , But I felt important to share that point. I have used a Binson in the past, so I know what it is supposed to sound like and given that I will say that UAD did a great job with emulating it.
I do wish UAD would add functionalities that are not available on the original units. This goes for any plugin. They are great for one-to-one recreations. Maybe the best at doing that! It would be nice to have more options such as longer delays morphing etc.
This is just me, I don't speak for everyone I realize that.
I personally felt it important to point out.
With that said another great creation by UAD!

Mildly Visually Impaired? Not for you!
The synth sounds amazing.
However, I have to reduce the accessibility text scaling on my entire machine down to 100% in order for the full user interface to show. Otherwise only part of the interface is visible with no way to expand it. The "resize plugin" feature does nothing, it only makes the 3/4ths of the interface that is visible larger. The fix was easy enough to find (another plus, I guess), but UAD... did it ever occur to you that people had the text scaling set above 100 for a reason? I have far too many plugins and this is literally the only one that requires me to change an accessibility setting making the text smaller across the entire machine just to show the full interface. As it is, I can only select presets and tweak 3/4ths of the settings. Sad.
I really do wish I could use this plugin, but I'm not making my entire machine harder to use just to do it. I'm glad I got it for free.

Amazing Sound Quality
I have so many plugins, mostly bought as collections. I wondered, as always, do I really need more? I already had some LA-2A plugins by other vendors, and they have been my gotos for a long time. So why would I want another one? But because it was Universal Audio, I thought I would take a look at the demo version. Tried it out on a couple of tracks and within minutes, clicked the BUY button. The sound was just so impressive, I knew I had to have it. Awesome work UA :)

Plate reverb enthusiast here
For me, my best friend as a guitarist is a quality plate reverb. I love plate because, it gives me all of the reverb I need while Not hindering the attack.
UAD has hit this one out of the park!
Extremely lush without getting lost.
There are performance tests that I do like stabs etc. This past all of them with flying colors!
