best EQ for vocais
Very good on vocais, even at low volumes, it makes the vocals always present and with a very beautiful tone!!
N. Tessier
A blast to use !
This Emulation of an API console is probably the best out there. I tried a few and eared the real deal, nothing sounds closely than the UAD plugin.
I find myself always coming back to this for mixing drums or guitars, anything agressive enough ; The preamp section is beautiful, and the Gate is really really short, which can be usefull to create nice effects.
With a PCI octo, I can run more than enough of these to mix without being worried.
If you're thinking about buying it but are not sure : Do it. You'll be amazed.

Lush & so warm. This reverb fully lives up to its hardware counterpart. Great work UA!

Fairchild 660 for Bass
I just purchased the Fairchild Tube Limiter Collection and have just began to experiment tracking Bass Guitar. I have played many different basses in different styles and the results are amazing! I have used many of the other UAD-2 compressor plugins and had good results but the Fairchild 660 is the best, by far! The tone and musicality of its sound is exceptional with a full low end without the pumping sound. I have been playing and recording bass for 40 years now and this will be my "Go To" plugin until something better comes around. (Doubtful!) Another UA Homerun!

FAIRCHILD
Absolut amazing plugin !!!..Need more knowing about all features and setup the right combinations ,then you absolutely win with Fairchild !:) Best Fairchild plugin I found until today ! Thnx amazing UAD !
B. Tonak
Awesome
The API Vision is my go-to first try plugin on tracks of almost any type: drums, vocals, guitars and more. Using it in Unison with my Apollo is awesome. On some occasions I end up pulling it off a track for something else, but on most tracks it does what I need it to do. I could make a whole record with just this if I had the dsp.

Great on mix down bus
The Ampex live on my mix bus. It's great for adding glue and a finished sound. I haven't had a chance to dig into all the different ways to use it. Generally I set it using a Stephen Smith ultra linear preset, maybe tweak levels a little and let it do it's thing... which is great.

If its UAD worthy its gotta Be awesome.
I AM ADDICTED TO THE UAD SELECTION, THIS TIME THEY RAISED THE BAR YET AGAIN WITH THIS API MONSTER, THE VISION IS 20/20 IN CLARITY AND IS A USEFUL TOOL TO HELP YOU GET A SOLID MIX , POP IT IN ON ANY OR ALL CHANNELS AND TWEEK YOUR SOUND, AND UTILIZE ALL THE TOOLS IN THIS COMBO STRIP TO MAKE LIFE EASIER IN THE STUDIO OR HE SET UP.

Really Great
I lean more to the player/computer geek side of things. So I wanted to take a while with these guys before leaving a review. Having said that, the Passive EQ collection is simply great. They sound great, the presets are very usable and tweaks are easily made with musical results. Again, I don't have tons of experience with the hardware version so I was a little apprehensive. That quickly went away. Well done to all at UA.

Excellent
Excellent!!! me encanta como hace vivir el sonido y el calor que le da

Just WOW
I've used the ATR-102 across my DAW master bus now for several mixes and absolutely love the way it completes the sound.. it gives my recordings a finished, record-like quality. And the new Ultralinear custom presets are simply amazing.
But recently I found another great use.. I was throwing together a quick and rough mix of a songwriting demo for a friend and found the ATR-102 to be an excellent time saver. I didn't have time to really dig in with the usual insert compression, level adjustments, automation, etc, so I just threw the ATR-102 on the master bus in Logic and called up my favorite 15ips 250 preset. Almost immediately I had a decent, workable demo to send out.

Finally, at my fingertips, the sound I've been hearing for ages..
Ever since I first saw the 224 hardware controller sitting on a console back in the 80's - and started hearing recordings featuring this incredibly lush sound, I've been searching for a way to duplicate it.
I've owned several cheaper Lex hardware units and tried various reverb plugins but NONE came close to this magic. But from the minute I launched this plugin and tried out the controls, I realized two things: First, THIS IS THE SOUND I've been coveting for years. And second, it's REALLY EASY to use.
I couldn't be happier and can't wait to use this in my mixes.

Incredible EQ
Unbelievable plugin EQ!
The mastering version is sublime on master bus. I like the std version for vocals (or instruments) but load up on DSP to really make the most out of these!
R. Bonilla
Ahhhhh...... Tape......!!!!! Hands Down The Best :)
This badboy here is amazing, I usually put it on my kick drum and snare and my god is just tape music to my ears I can describe it is just big body and meaty definitely go to on all my ongoing projects. But to be honest I mainly used this bad boy on vocals. I mainly do Hip Hop Pop and R&B!
My vocal chain is U87 70's ver. - Through the UAD neve 1073 - Studer A800 - Pultec -La2a silver and my God Vocals never sounded better, it's the Million dollar studio vocal quality everybody's been searching for. Thanks UA i'm your customer for life! I recommend the studer to everybody!
R. Bonilla
Big and Awesome Larger Than Life!
I'm just Wowed, It's like windex, It just cleans,cut and boosts up the those transients in a way that no other EQ would do! (Without making anything sound bad) I use the regular one on a vocal Bus and geez it's like in your face type! Especially for The genre that I do which is hip hop, and the MT version on the mastering bus, let me tell you you get them nice and modern sound! Rock on UA you guys out to yourself again! And use it with the variable MU Compressor wooo! Just perfect! I Highly recommended it don't hesitate just buy it you won't regret it!

Love the silver
Love the faster time constants on the silver. I use it a lot on vocals and other sources. The mkii collection adds some nice extra special magic on crucial tracks over the original la2a.

M&M ;-) Manley and Mastering
Eq Manley EQ is the best I have used for mastering. its first quality is its musicality. never aggressive, always gentle and effective it allows re balancing of the spectrum of a song to another. In collaboration with a compressor and limiter can solve a lot of problems and arrive at a homogeneous and credible finish.
mastering in home studio is very delicate and the use of Manley allows us to approach this step without fear pouvu that we pass the time required.
Enjoy with Manley EQ

Incredible software compressor from UA!
I’ve worked with the actual LA2A many times and this software version comes amazingly close to the real thing! It gives unique vintage taste and works great at the Master channel strip as a limiter. Its natural and analog character adds a bit of “life” to each sound.

Definitely Worth Buying
I picked this up cause it was on sale. I got to tell you this is an awesome compressor. Especially on guitars and drums. Can't beat this especially for the money. Well worth the purchase.
