Pure luscious glory
I don't think I'll ever need another reverb. Sweet, lush, crystalline, deep - whatever you want. All without sounding dingy, springy, electronic, fake, or cheap. The UA video demo sold me well in advance, and I finally made the purchase. There is a reason this controller sat on nearly every desk of every studio for decades. If the space in heaven had a sound, this would be it. Oh those gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous tails.

Great FX Plugin
I've been tinkering with this plugin for a little bit and I keep finding new sounds that I like. I really enjoy it. Thank you for such a great product.

Another awesome plugin collection
I have been doing a lot of playing around since I purchased my octo card and this LA-2A collection has blown me away. The different tones and characters of each unit are quite amazing. I really like the silver on bass right now, but that will probable shift with each project. I can see myself using these on a lot of different things.

Classic
These 1176 plugins rock. They bring tons of life to anything you put them on. Bass, snare, kick, guitars, vocals, it doesn't matter, they will make any source sound better. The sonic difference between the revisions is astonishing. Thank you for these plugins.

My go to reverb
Lovely warm reverb that is easy to access and do not feel dominant, but still present. Favorite reverb in my studio setup.

Cn't believe it's a plug-in!
I recently got into the UAD product line with a Quad Custom card. The first plugs I tried were the LA-2A collection.
These really are amazing!
I've used a lot of hardware outboard compression, and I have a couple of racks full in my studio, so I was very keen to see how these plugs would hold their own against my valve outboard. I have to say I was very impressed. When patching in real analogue hardware, often the sound just gets 'better' or 'bigger' before you even start tweaking the settings, and the same is true of these LA-2As. When a-b'ing between a UAD LA-2A on one channel and a real analogue Retro Instruments 176 on the other, the comparison was quite stunning - the software really held its own!!
A must buy!

Stunning ...
... and subtle; I like the Studer much more than the Ampex.
Why? Its more versatile .. great plugin

Character!
Each version of the LA-2A on offer has it's own unique character, which work well in different scenarios. One thing remains consistent throughout - they all sound awesome. I tend to use for dynamic levelling as something towards the end of a chain. I can get a lot of level whilst still maintaining punch and transients. Gives a lot of weight and depth as well. A great all rounder for dynamics!

Using this on everything!
This is perhaps my go to plug-in now. Vocals, drums, stereo mix, sound design. It's simply the best sounding EQ I've ever used in the box. You can balance a mix effortlessly. I've used my emulations of the Pultec - this one is by far the best out there short of having it hardware. Outstanding!

1176 Classic Collection
Well, I try not to review anything until some time has passed so I'm more open to the reality of whether it's really doing what I originally expected. That said, this plugin bundle is exactly what it claims. I got it specifically because I had some vocal tracks that I was having trouble getting to sit right in the mix for an album I was mixing. I knew what needed to be done. I needed the hi-mid push and rock solid limiting that an 1176 gives when you put the ratio at 12:1, attack on 6, release on 7 and give 5-7db of gain reduction. I've used 1176's and Purple MC-77 hardware and this plugin didn't dissappoint. I tried all 3 and the E version was what I was looking for. It did the job and allowed me to move forward with the mixing process.

Classic Sound, Modern Application
This is the real thing. Sorry to any old-school "purists" out there who will nickel and dime every single subjective sonic nuance of this plug-in against the original hardware, but the argument is futile... It simply "does the job" of the 224 without any of the headache, troubleshooting, or inefficiency of the original. Infinite preset management/recall, writable automation and real-time controllable interface... If you find yourself blaming this plug-in for your mix-related reverb woes, you're either A) using the wrong setting, or B) using the wrong device altogether for the application. Couldn't be happier, and thank you UA for saving me the time, money, rackspace and hassle of the hardware.

Heavy weight hitter
Goes on just about every channel. Look no further. I use this most of the time, if I need a warmer vibe, I go with the Neve 88RS. Great on drums, vocals, bass, guitars, everything. Great to use, easy to understand, decent presets to get you pointed in the right direction.
