If you need Plate, you got it
Simple but great Sounding Plug In, in case of Plate Reverb you're done when you
own this Masterpiece

Wonderful EQ!
This EQ is so musical that it lives on my mix buss. Also it is amazing to do tracking with it. I have used the three pieces of the collection and they are great! Thanks UAD!

Didn't need it, bought it, did not regret it.
Clear echo. Unbelievable how vintage stuff can make your music sound this modern.

Great for bass
Sounds awesome on bass. This is now my go to channel strip for recording bass. Very simple and easy to get a great tone.

Smooth Saturator
This is my favorite UAD tape plug-in to use on vocals and string instruments. It is subtle, smooth when turned relatively low, and gives a great, harmonically rich overdrive at higher input levels.

Oxide Tape hits the mark
Love this piece of software, really helps tighten instruments and drums a like and adds some charm and quality to your mix. A must have!

15ips or 7.5ips - two flavours of "better"
Once I put this on something, it's hard to take it off. It just makes most things sound a little bit better. I rarely have to touch the levels, just choose a tape speed and move on - perfect for tracking sessions.

Get loose / get weird
I use the Manley Massive Passive EQ when I'm really pretending to understand the audio spectrum and want to impress the dames, but when my hair is down: I switch from Super Hit incense to a giant chunk of sage and levitate 2-3 feet off the ground, and spin the Pultec knobs. Turn it up on one and turn it down on the other. Find new resonances. Center your soul; equalize your heart. G R O W. In other words, it's a great EQ.

All three UA tape emulations...
All three UA tape emulations are definitely worth owning for different reasons. The Oxide is my DSP-saving, time-saving tape.

Jammin' on the one
Used to have access to the hardware, and I love running saxophone and weird synth stuff through it. Finally got an Apollo Heritage and got access to this again. Immediately threw some sax and synth at it....now it may not be an exact match, but I can't tell the difference. This is really worth the price of admission. If you aren't using this, you should be. <3

Simple and extremely effective.
When I need a quick reverb, this is what I throw on my bus. Worth the dsp. Not a ton of variation, much like using a real plate, but what's there can help slide it into any mix. I frequently use this when I don't want to spend a bunch of time programming the perfect reverb, but I often end up tweaking it a couple of times and it ends up in my final mix. GG EZ

Great tape sound.
Track with it. Master with it. Great tool.

Surprisingly awesome channel strip
Quickly has become one of my favourite channel strips. It effects sound of my guitar in very nice ways before further processing. The pre amp itself has fantastic sounding saturation that can be pushed toward full distortion but kind to the ears, the eq and comp sections are so simple I’m not distracted by options and can focus on essentials. Level of DSP usage is reasonable which makes it overall high impact plugin.

C. Moore
A Must-Have
Wether subtle or extreme, injecting Oxide Tape on my tracks has changed my ability to shape the sound of my mixes! Brilliant!
L. Heijnen
My favorite on bass
Love it on my synth bass. Like it when things are made easy to setup .
R. Osborne
Great for DI tracks
Even though I love the Apollo pres, I've never felt like they got my DI bass or guitar tracks (even with the UAD amp sims, which are AMAZING) to sound how I thought they should sound. This plugin gets them there. Simple, beautiful-sounding plugin.
