great sound / very few dsp needs
I use to work with the J37 tape simulator from Waves, on a bus track, sending lots of the instruments in it.
Now, and consequently to its very few dsp needs, I can plug the Oxide Tape on almost every tracks I have.
And I'm telling you, it sounds great. It does something really subtle and essential at the same time, it's bonding my tracks one another.

So useful for shaping tracks
I was so pleased how unique this plugin was after using it for a while, its not like the other tape plugs...... it really gives you more unique shapes that can really transform your track into more tonal shapes than other tape emulations.
This is a must have along with the Studer and Ampex to me.

Superb tape emulation
This lives on my master bus. I couldn't imagine my master bus chain without this plugin to add that tape warmth. And without the hassle of having to maintain a 2 track tape machine.

Love it after a shaky start
I received this plugin free with my Satellite OCTO, and thought it would be the least likely plugin I'd ever use. I thought it was quite average at first then I watched some tutorials and learned how to use it properly. Now I find myself firing it on almost anything. I love how you can overdrive the preamp it sounds immense, the compressor and gate is also very tight. The EQ is nice too, I personally prefer graphic EQs but I find it nice to add just a bit of top end sheen without it sounding to harsh. My main vocalist also loves tracking her vocals with the API present saying it has never sounded so good in the cans.

Bang the 1176!
I really love this plug in..I've two 1176 Ln and I appreciate the possibility to have the automation with an incredible similar sound…sometimes for vocal I use the hardware on recording and the software in mixing..
Excellent

My go to EQ when I need something beautiful.

Just perfect for tracking
I use it for all kind of acoustic instruments for tracking, sound changes right away in a very analog and clear sounding dimension.
Well done!

BAD F****** ASS
An absolutely remarkable emulation of the original hardware units. It's really hard to tell them apart.

Warm that Mix up!
This plugin is a time machine that'll take you back to a far away place where music sounded warm and beautiful to the ear.
It's a must have for any digital environment.

Wow man! That's what my mixes were missing.
This damn thing applies butter on my prickly and thorny mix. Just a touch of it is enough to make everything sound smooth and present. Don't push it hard you don't need that. All types of tapes with different flavors, just can't get enough. My mixes use to hit hard on my ears esp. with lots of harsh eqs and comps. That harshness is gone but the presence is still there,THAT'S THE GAME. I use on my Mix Buss. Actually i mix with it on. Tape type GP9, Cald at +6 and Head 1/4" ahh! much better now. Of course tweak the eq setting,noise shaping, wow and flutter. Transformer if u need, keeps things in place.

There's a reason this plugin is iconic...
That reason is it boost and reduces bass at the same time. You have to hear it to believe it. It has it's own tone, but once you know how to use it you can boost those lows without getting mud. Here's how to do it: CPS at 30. Bandwidth to 7. ATTN to 10. Start boost at 0 and slowly turn it up. Bass will be epic. Wanna do vocals? MEQ-5. EQP-1A. Your voice is now gold. This is a must have plugin.

Love the UAD plugins, especially the La-2a collection. My favourite is the silver face but they all offer something very usable! I have two Apollo's and i love that i can use them on the way in!! Keep up the good work UAD!!

Basically a poor man's Studer - and it's great!
I've worked with the Studer and Ampex plug-ins here and actually found them a little too feature packed - when I'm quickly looking for a nice tape effect the Oxide is a perfect place to start. And obviously the DSP hit is so much less than with the Studer/Ampex - great job UAD!

Loving This Plug-In!
Besides being a great tool for getting sounds to gel and "sit" in the track better, I'm loving using it on a drum bus submix aux channel, and generally loving what it does on bass and drums, especially the Silver. Great job UAD!
