Ampex® ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder Review
From the moment I first tried this plugin on my entire mix, I felt like I finally found the missing link to a GREAT sounding mix. The number of different sounds you can get just by choosing different combinations of tape speeds, head widths, tape formulas, calibration levels, biasing, wow/flutter, hum/hiss and input/output record levels is astonishing!
A huge range of tape sounds are covered from lo-fi (3.75 IPS, 1/4" head) All the way to Ultra Hi Fidelity (30 IPS 1" Head)
A really cool add on is the tape delay control, which gives you tape delay effect, with variable time control.
A MUST HAVE plugin. Great Job UA!

Galaxy Tape Echo Review
This plugin has an amazing sounding spring reverb(and tape delay, of course)
The first time using it, I plugged my guitar in and set it to reverb only, played a chord and BAM! It added instant Dap Tone like vibe to my guitar. Combined with my AKG BX20 and EMT 140 Plate Reverb, I have all of the ambience processing options I will ever need. Again, another fantastic product!

Example Lead Vocals
The Lead Vocals at example is flat! Why?

When it works on a track it's wonderful
I owned the hardware unit for years and this seems very faithful to me. Just lijke the hardware, it didn't work on everything but when it works it's that marvelous fairy-dust tubey-thing. Love it on BG Vox and lead vox. Don't forget you can use it as just a comp, just a passive EQ, just a limiter etc although it is CPU intensive- hey, just bounce it down if that's an issue. I was on the fence on spending the money on this one (it's just after Black Friday sales I'm writing this) but I'm really glad I did. Great job UA!

Go to mastering EQ
Been using this as my first master eq lately. I love how it crisps the highs without the added harshness.

Makes the drums go SMACK!!
Man, this thing just makes a drum bus pop. Even individual drum tracks benefit from the 2500. I also love how it glues the master together without making mush out of it. Money well spent!

Amazing and easy to use plugin! Perfect on Vocals!
I think this bundle of the LA-2A is just amazing. It works perfect, especially on vocals. I use it on every project! And it is a very simple plugin to use but it sounds great! It is one of the best plugins that i know. go try it out!

It works
Having the studer and this one I feel is a good combo for individual tracks. If warming is the task, with the first one, if some shine is needed with the second.

A simple way to add life to the mix!
I found this tape emulation very easy to use and really handy to immediately add that tape sparkle and warmth to individual tracks. When you push the settings a bit it adds a soft compression which is a great starting point for further processing. Puts back some of the "life" that is so often missing in digital recordings!

Perfect companion to the 102
Been waiting to get this one since I already had the 102...sounds great..

This Classic Tape Delay is a must-have!
I Love this one on Vocals and Guitars! It gives a kind of space and vibe not to be had with other reverbs and/or delays. It doesn't carry the Roland name anymore, but it IS that sound! So go for it and enjoy it... I surely do!

I sold my hardware Roland Dimension D! Nuff said!
I always loved my Roland Dimension D for widening my vocal (and other) tracks. Now I have that sound in the box! and can use multiple instances with different settings. A classic Roland effect that you must have in your "mixing arsenal"!

"The Lexicon sound" that I know so well and absolutely love!
This one I use in every mix! So easy to get that luxury space that Lexicon is known for.
Halls, chambers, rooms... always sublime on vocals and other key channels in your mix. This is a must-have.

THOSE TRANSFORMERS
the difference made just running the mix bus through this thing might be worth the price...

So cool!
So far, I'm loving thisStuder® A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder. It really does sound incredible.
R. Howell
Love it!
Lush and airy... It's easy to find the sweet spot w/ the Lexicon® 224 Digital Reverb plug in.
It's not the RMS 16, that's a totally different animal. You should get that one too.. They're both useful in their own way!

Tape recorder and tape recorder.

S. Sinclair
Fantastic!
I worked in a studio for a few years that had an API Legacy Plus and two API 2500. This is one of my favorite compressors out there. UAD did a fantastic job with this plugin!

Are you Tape experienced
Came with Apollo USB Twin promo - I've experimented with it - yes it does as advertised.
Research saves resources.
