This thing is violent! It's got punch that I thought was only possible with hardware.
The title says it all. Incredibly punchy. Even on the 'lighter' settings it gives you an incredibly realistic analogue punch to anything that goes through it. Whilst the tonality of it is a one trick pony (clean, super punchy) the features give it a lot of versatility within that tonal context.

Power and thicker sound UA 175B & 176
This compressor surprised me how much it made the acoustic guitar sound nicer and fatter. The drum has gained more power and is more pumped as well as the bass. The vocals are also closer and clearer with the compressor. I would recommend this compressor to everyone to have a richer sound and another sound colorization in their arsenal.

Great sound
New to UAD, but I’m happy to have invested in this software. Still getting around to using the studer effectively, but the color and vibe it brings to the two bus is amazing!

A true classics collection
The 1176 collection to me is an instant classic and can be seen as essential. I love the fact that you have 3 colors to choose from and pick the one that best suits the specific situation. Really a great collection.

Feels like the real deal
Having owned and mixing through a hardware API 2500 as my mixbus compressor for several years, I don't feel like I'm missing anything using this plugin. All the features and tricks I use respond the same. Even when using hardware recall sheets from past client projects, but using the plugin with the same settings, the results are without any significant difference. Seriously impressed.

about CPU issues (I do not have any at all) and easy solutions
Wondering why this wonderful plugin got only 4 stars on average, which leaves the plugin to one of the worst ratings among the 5 star ratings of other UAD plugins, I found some reviews that complain about CPU issues with this plugin. One even recommends not to buy it. This is sad, because for me it belongs to the top 3 UAD plugins. I tested it and I was able to run multiple instances of the plugins with my MacBook with only 8 GB RAM. Even my old PC (nearly 20 years old) can handle an instance easily.
Therefore I suggest an easy solution. But before that try to exclude wrong system settings. Always mix with a high latency. I select the highest possible. That is 1028 in Logic and 2056 in Cubase. In Cubase you can run it with nearly 20 year old windows computers. I would not call that an up to date or decent system. Still this plugin is running fine on that.
If that does not help then use it as you would use a studio. Put it on the insert of the track, commit to a setting, and export the track.
This plugin can make tracks sound so amazing and real that I would not want to miss it even on computer from the Stone Age. Like my old PC.
enjoy this plugin and don't let anything get you frustrated.

wheels falling off
Sounds great. But what's the point when I can hardly run on instance without it cracking up. lowered buffer ect. running one track, a dry drummer loop in logic just testing it out. I thought it was both uad and native..why ! ?

Does the job
Bought this to replace my stock plug in for my master chain. Makes a world of difference. So clean too. Can’t say more other than top of the line.

VOX and Master
This plugin just shapes your vocals perfectly. However, try putting it on your masterbus....wow !
