Very Good Emulation
This Pultec plugin is extremely useful on just about all material.
It doesn't quite sound like the real thing - I have a unit and despite this plugin being used extensively, it doesn't sound as nice as the hardware.
Of course, all that means is that the hardware is *that good*. I use this plugin all the time, so who cares if it's identical? It's still excellent.

Excellent
This generation of the LA2A is the real deal. I own the hardware unit and only use it for tracking now - never for mixing.
Unbeatable on vocals.

Excellent Compressor
I own two hardware 1176s and barely use them anymore.
That is my review.

Useful on Group
I use Oxide as bus compressor on every group I create and the results are great.

API Vision Channel Strip as standard
The API Vision Channel Strip lifted the great UAD console to a new level: in both settings )live & studio) this plugins adds the right definition to certain analog sound sources. During recording the API Vision Channel Strip is a fixed plugin for channels where during mixing it's important for a good balance in frequencies, character & warmth... Since I use 3 Apollos & a Satellite I can load plenty of API Vision Channel Strip..... A API in the box is the best I bought till now.

Absolutely Stunning
I can't tell you just how amazing this plugin is, it has to be used and experienced to see just what it does. I previously was using a Slate tape emulation plugin and the difference was very apparent. I still like the Slate for group saturation but for the overall mix this is untouchable.

Awesome
Used to use the real pedal. Great replication without the noise. Love it:)

so far beyond the legacy la2a plug.
love these dudes on bass, overheads and vocals... huge improvement!

dig this studer but...
...several other companies emus give it a run for its money. I think the ampex is definitely a class above this, and even prefer oxide, when it comes to uad tape offerings, but this is still a solid workhorse that definitely adds value on a harmonic content level.
j. elliott
when it works it's a killer...
...but it doesn't work for everything, just the nature of the hardware it emulates, but well worthwhile for that gooey mid range, if that is what you're after.

lives on my two bus.
eq simplicity perfected. so much vibe hidden under such simple controls. makes everything sound better!

easily my favorite comp plug.
use this everywhere, especially the blue stripe. i've yet to meet a competitor that bests it. a truly great collection!

definite improvement over the legacy version.
not quite the real thing, but a worthy emu nonetheless. well worth your time.
j. elliott
even though this is based on a somewhat long in the tooth emu...
i still love it and use it constantly! does something special, that my other space echo plugs don't quite match up with. give it a whirl.
