API Vision Channel Strip Plug-In docs not found
The documentation for the API vision channel Strip plug in can not be found online or in the installation. Where is it?

A 20/20 Plug-in
Buying this is like buying a pair of glasses for your audio!
To date, this is the best plug that I've ever used. I've been through all the Waves worth mentioning, Brainworx, other UAD ones, Native instruments, etc…, and none of them compare to the "it just works" aspect that this plug offers.
The preamp dials in your amount of distortion. The filters provide just enough to cut (or even add side chain!). The compressor, with its four different combinations, is very doable on nearly every source — if not perfect. It can do punch you in the gut very easily or even be very transparent — very adjustable and versatile. The expander can be a pretty neat creative tool; try it on drums! Great EQ!
Though it's a channel strip, try it on all buses!

Ganz ganz ganz toll
Ich besitze selber einen 1176 ln und bin unheimlich begeistert von der klangquallität dieser Plugins...ich finde es unglaublich gut ! Es ist schwer für mich im direkt Vergleich unterschiede zu hören...

The Indispensable LA2A!
I really like that classic LA2A sound and now I have the different versions as well. Vocals get even and gain body and weight. Vintage...Yes of course! Not a transparent compressor, but that is why you choose LA2A. Outstanding Vocal compressor; Bass always gets the LA2A-sauce. And the 3 versions bring their own character to the table. UA really copied the hardware very well it in this new LA2A collection. Indispensable in every mix!!!

It's that classic Lexicon sound!
This reverb is so easy to use. And you immediately get that well known Lexicon sound. This is one of my favorite reverbs! For big halls, superb vocal reverbs, percussion tails, really anything... This one is in all of my sessions :-)

Excellent emulation
I have worked in an analog studio in the past, where I used Lexicon 480L a lot. When I got hands in Lexicon 224 plug-in I was very pleasantly surprised at the authentic sound it produces.

Beautiful sound
Beautiful sound, crystal clear top and good reproduction in the bottom register, API Vision Channel Strip is also very musical.

The Best
This plugin is simply awesome. No other words to describe it. Thank you Universal audio.
J. Nagiev
Wow! That's awesome!
Best 1176 sounding software compressor collection! Full of character and veeery versatile.

First things first...
I add Studer as the first plug in on every track, and I mean every. About half the time, I use an appropriate preset, the other half I leave at default with maybe a few tweaks. It really removes the brittle digital feel that I sometimes hear on my tracks. While subtle, it's real. It's by far my most used plug.

Great sound! Great Results! Simply the Best!
No doubts - THE BEST SOUNDING! emulation of original 1176 hardware. I use it on any kind of acoustic instruments and i like very much the quality of the sound!
N. Driver
Beautiful!
What can I say that hasn't already been said? The LA-2A collection is digital with heart and soul, these sound gorgeous on just about anything you can throw at them. Demo them right now if you haven't already and see what all the fuss is about.

The Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb AAX plugin
Well what can I say, this plugin works really well. It is such a nice soft reverb for vocals.
you can use a fair bit which just softens any vocal track. It is very easy to use and the best reverb I have.An excellent reproduction of the actual hardware. Well done UA

Cool Reverb
I really like the sound of this reverb, and it's capable of creating some great atmospheric sounds and fx.

Seems good
I haven't had a chance to delve into this plugin too deeply, but so far it sounds good and adds a nice tape sound. Low cpu means you can use it on individual tracks.
J. Barrios
What can I said...
I don't think any one needs some recommendations on this plugin... It just make music sound better!!! I use it all the time and it helps me to create really good separation on my mixes. is amazing on acoustic guitar and drums!
V. Kourkoutas
Awesome!!!
Awesome channel strip, works great with Unison Technology and ready to use while tracking, mixing etc. This tool does not only offer great sound but it is a one-plugin-solution while tracking concerning the included EQ and compressor besides its colour.

1176 review..
This surprised me by how good it was,
It's the first 1176 plugin I have used that sounded like I think a real 1176 sounds.
Which was handy because it always seemed like a bit of a waste of effort to me making a front end for an 1176 plugin if it didn't sound like an 1176.
M. Elten
I Love it
The first thing i did with my new API channel strip was recording an acoustic guitar set via UNISON. At once I achieved the best acoustic guitar recordings ever. Like good old times: Recording with little compression (the compressor is awesome) and some frequency enhancements provides analogue magic to your recordings.

Fantastic Emulation
Having used the originals in the 80's I can truly say that this plug-in captures the full LA-2A vibe, right down to the distortion when its pushed hard.
Take this, the 1071 input, and maybe the 1081 eq and strap them in the console app and you won't be disappointed.
Fantastic on vocals or really any full-range source.
