Amazing sound with minimum efforts
This plugin will make your tracks sound better just by putting it on a channel. Then only a few knob twists and you will be amazed by how it opens up the sound, making it thicker, more open and cleaner at the same time. Its low frequency boost/attenuation trick is invaluable when it comes to bass or mix bus processing, taking a lot of guesswork out of the picture.
I haven't been able to work with its analogue counterpart, but out of all other Pultec emulations this one is surely the best I've used, as it gives great results almost instantly. That is what a great mixing tool should be!

A True Leslie Cabinet emulation!!
Very well familiar with the Leslie rotary speaker systems via church venues and also being around them in funk and soul band setups. Love the sound and the plugin is closer to the original than any of the other similar simulation plugins I have in my arsenal. If you just want a rotary sound... sure any plugin can probably accomodate. BUT if you no the sonic difference between a rotary sound plugin and a leslie cabinet then you'll love this plugin! It won't disappoint.
I would agree with others though that it definitely should be available for DSP integration BUT at the other end of the spectrum..... I have often found myself push my DSP load to the limit so having the option to distribute some of the load to my system is nice.
UAD, please listen to your loyal patrons and provide this plugin on the UAD platform as well. I would find it a benefit as well.

1176 Incomparable tool
Honestly, there is no tool similar to 1176 Classic Limiter Collection. I've used everything, with all due respect, but other emulations are far from UAD.
J. Greiner
Outstanding!
This is by far the best Leslie emulation I’ve ever used.

Amazing tape saturation
I am absolutely delighted with this plugin, I use it in every project. I use it on vocals
A. Goncharov
Instant magic!
Just adding this plugin on a track or a master buss changes the sound in a very pleasant way, makes it less harsh and thicker at the same time. I haven't yet found any source that would not benefit from using the Oxide Tape Recorder on it, from piano to synth bass. I wasn't able to recreate or achieve the same nice touch with any other tape plugin I've tried so far, so cheers UA!

Good sounding synth but has a lot going on
I don't use this much but it has some fantastic pad sounds. The interface is a bit daunting and the presets are a bit all over the place but there are good starting points. 4 oscillators gives you lots of runway for sound design too.

Amazing and Innovative
I was surprised when I saw this in my email on my Spark subscription and I tried it and it's so fun and unique and whimsical this is the sort of thing that I like and dig.

This One Takes the Cake!
I hardly ever write product reviews. That said, here is where I make an exception.
The versatility, ease of use, beautiful tube timbre and compression characteristics all come together in a way that makes the audio signal you pass through it really pop!
For any electronic music producers out there... pass your kick and bass/sub (together) through the century tube, after you're finished processing the individual channels. Careful with gain staging, don't come in too hot. Apply very subtle 10k boost, remove small amount of boxiness/muddiness (if necessary) between 250-600 Hz, add some 110 Hz niceness, and apply 1-3 (max!) gain reduction on the compressor. This will usually squeeze another 5% out of the kick/bass/sub combo, tightening up the low end very nicely, glueing both elements, and at the same time making them really pop!

Good saturation!!!
Comparing with other tape plugins, this one has not aggressive soul

...it's almost...too perfect...
I have tried many virtual organs since 2009, and this is one of the best ones I've ever played. No frills, no extras...and it sounds like some of the organs I've played in churches over the years. The only gripe I have is that I either need a Spark subscription (which I currently have) or a UA interface to use it (which I don't understand seeing as it doesn't use alot of RAM, and I already have a good interface). If ya'll could make this useable without a UA interface, I would buy this IMMEDIATELY!!!!!! Or, maybe I'll just buy UA interface...but I need this organ to remain in my arsenal!!!!!

Badly needs machine activation
Was playing with my band and had no reliable internet connection at the moment. This and the some other UA softsynths could not go online to check the activation. Because of this Studio One could not function and the music was dead. To band, because this is a good plug-in when it functions.
Can you change to an activation that is more friendly to musicians and composers on the go? Would be 5/5 with a better system for activation. Please ditch the internet authorization or dongles. Just do a machine activation like Arturia, XLN, Softube etc.
I would have written this customer feedback to the support but last time I kindly asked the for the support to please forward a suggestion to the development team the UA support answered that No we do not take suggestions.
