Studer A 800 - Incredible
I have just moved across from waves plug ins to UAD. I had the full waves package and I have to say this plug in blows any of there tape emulation plug ins out of the water. Incredible and worth every penny for everything.

Oh Yeah!
This Eq is so pleasing to my ears. For color I used it for mastering for the first time ever and I was just blown away. Oh Yeah! :-)

Got Tape?
I Do… the Ampex is the best tape emulator on the market.. Since I made the purchase I lands and all my 2 tracks. Full, fat, warm… everything Im looking for in tape!

Everything I Expected
When deciding to purchase the apollo, the Manley Massive Passive was a great selling point. Actually the fact that Universal Audio made such great emulations was great!! I have used this hardware unit a lot and being able to bring it home it perfect for my mixing needs and taste. Thanks UAD!!

Ua do it again!
I was seriously considering buying a 500 series pultec style eq.
Until I heard the pultec collection at work. The legacy model is fantastic I agree, but the collection has everything you need in eq plug ins! It's character too is undeniable. Great plugs, great sound I'm sold!
Would be as well selling all my hardware and other plugins the way ua is making these!

COLOR!
This is what I was looking for to add to the arsenal. It has fantastic color and one of a kind compression. Thanks UA!!!

Parallel comping
I like the new feature Wet and Dry.I hope UA update all it's plugins with a WET/DRY knob to solve latency adjustment in pro tools.

Best tape emulation I've used
Great job UA! This is the best tape plug out there IMHO! Thank you for the ability to turn the noise off! I use this on 95% of the projects I do! Gets more use than the Studer plug which is also great!

More subtle than the 1st version
Great EQ!!! I use it on most projects-not all! This and the original version of the plug definitely have a "thing" gong on in the high mids. More subtle and refined on the new version though!
There's a cool thing that this does on a buss that almost gives the illusion of doing something really cool to the stereo field, which it isn't messing that up at all. If you have a mix that is kinda meh sounding throw this on and check it out, you literally don't have to set anything. Just running it in the signal path will color it in a cool way!
Should have been a free upgrade though!

My Go To Compressor
I love this emulation! It gets more use than any other compressor I have. Absolutely stellar!!!!!! Should it get a 5 star review, yes! Should it also be a free upgrade to users of the old version, YES! Minus one star!
Used it on the front end to squash a picked bass track and add some grit-stunning! Used it for subtle compression on acoustic guitar, great! Beautiful job on this!
M. Smith
Good, not great
This is a really good upgrade to the UAD 1 version. I find myself using it less often though. I can't tell if it's the love affair I'm having with the newer 1176 revision or I'm just not that bowled over by this one!
On vocals and acoustic guitar (if I want "that" sound) it's really good, but when I need gooey color I'll find myself using the new Fairchild more often.
I also think all these "revisions" should have been free for the users that actually bought the original version (maybe not the folks who got it for free though?)! Considering this is my 3rd UAD device (2 previous ones discontinued), I've invested quite a bit into the company! Funny they decided to give 1/2 of the 610 plug for free to Apollo users. Kinda weird!

Fast and smooth
This little box acts like a fast LA2A while remaining very smooth.
I didn't even considered it until recently. A few tries and i was sold.
Sounds very natural when you need a fast attack without crushing everything.
5 stars... again !

Aways API
The API sound is wonderful! I am impressed by the warmth and precision of this plugin. I would recommend without a doubt.

toneshaping
a great toneshaping tool, that can create lovely Fuzzy highend, rounded bottom and Dimension to the sound.
E. Andersen
underrated
this one is great for leveling, and also crasy shit to bring the tail of the sound forward (try it on a reverb bus)
E. Andersen
workhorse
these compressors are powerful shaping Tools, I can get up to 5-7db of reduction before it breaks apart - thats alot for a software compressor.

API Vision Channel Strip Plug-In
I have already UAD Neve 88RS which I use often and much, and now after the demo test, I bought API Vision Channel Strip Plug-In because I receive new colors and opportunities (first of all it is finite
preamplifier 212L) for my operation. Further is a tremendous universality of this plug-in (all in one) and flexibility of settings that defines its character
and surprising musicality of the received results.
Universal Audio bravo! As a result, for reasonable money, I received one more very powerful, generalpurpose tool for my mixes.

Clarity and Warmth
Love this emulation. Gives everything a clarity and warmth that I love.

This plug lives on my 1st FX buss!
I use this constantly! Altiverb used to be my go-to reverb, and this has replaced it.
The modulation feature is really great for thickening up reverbs (not totally natural sounding but still great). I believe Altiverb is a bit more natural sounding, but the UAD Lexicon seems to sound much better on mixes.
