Do you really need more tape echo simulations? Just one more :)
Especially when using with guitars, tape echoes add this special sauce, some kind of magic to your guitar tracks. And as you can hear it while you're playing it, it gives you so much inspiration. Combined with the really smooth sound of this device, it is hard not to love this plug in. It comes in both DSP and Native versions so you can use it in real time while monitoring and also give it some final tweaks in the mixing stage. Highly recommended.

A great classic of all time.
Absolutely universal EQ suitable for everything and giving a good color to the upper frequencies.
The only thing I don't like is the bass boost.
I recommend this legend. She is worth every dollar!

Nice reverb
Very simple with good sound.
Great for lo-fi synths from the 70s and 80s.
Good for guitar with extra M/S correction on fx send
O. Kudin
Warm and crisp
Simple yet bright at the top and warm at the low end.
Very easy to use with great sound.
Absolutely on any instruments will be in demand.
I recommend

I personally did not like(
The preamp is good, everything else is not so good.
I don't understand why this plugin is being praised.
The optical compressor is very bad, ruins the sound a lot and sounds like LMC from SSL.
The equalizer section is the most ordinary and there is no surprising sound there.

Great flexibility and good sounding reverb
Reverb easy to tailor to fit the track or bus depending on the source. Great flexibility of intervention due to the parameters. Another bullseye from UA!

Simply the best!
Ive tried many La2a plugins (CLA2A, Softube, Black Rooster, IK Multimedia, Slate etc) & nothing compares this collection. My search for a La2a vst is finally over!

The best plate!!!!

My go to
This with the neve is the safest way to create a great sound. I use the silver for almost every song.

Best in the Market
Adds warmth even before tweaking the knobs on 1st loading, the supreme additions in tone are supe classic and really isn't found in other rival companies' emulations who claim them to be the closest clone of the actual hardware. Hats off to UAD

The acronym UAD should stand for Ultra Audio Design Century Tube Channel strip
I was a little skeptical at first especially trying UAD plugins for the very first time. I was looking for an easy to use very intuitive channel strip and stumbled across this thing and haven't looked back. At the time I couldn't afford any outboard gear to track through then seen a video on how this thing works and I was sold on how this plugin really does great on emulation. Not only is it easy to dial in what you need but it sounds freakin awesome! also I'm a firm believer not to over pay for plugins and then have to deal with buyers remorse. I'm going to say it the plugins are to damn expensive. so I'm playing the waiting game to see if they'll come down in price again. I also like that you can check the plugin out in trial mode without any stupid watermarks and what have you. Anyway thanks UAD for making a great product.

Like EMT140 plate
but is native plugin.very low cpu use.

Unstable on Logic in low latency mode/latch mode
Sounds pretty good but the main thing i want to use it for is creative feedback riding, where you slow the delay time down and automate it.
Unfortunately in Ventura on Logic (and for a few years) Galaxy Tape Echo constantly crashes and resets if you move any paramaters in low latency mode. Just stutters and stops, or makes clicks and pops.
Universal Audio support have been less than helpful with support issues in the past too.

Love it!
I’ve been using this channel strip on everything lately.
K. Theron
EXCELLENT
Great options to have. The legacy unit is the one I reach for the most but EACH has its own flavor that can be helpful at times!!! Great emulations, thank you UA!!!

Versatile plugin
It comes with Spark which is perhaps better value. A great product where I got fast results without too much faffing about.

The King Of All Pultecs
My first encounter with UAD plugins now that they are native and OMG, they do not disappoint. So pleased they have had a sale and made them affordable for me. This Pultec blows every other I own out of the water, so much so I have uninstalled the rest. Don't need them now I have the best.
