Versatile tool
Many uses and multiple instances of a 2000$ compressor.
D. Tartar
Ferrari of EQ's
Combine the sound of glowing tubes with one of the tightest sculpting eq's you'll ever hear. Both the standard and the mastering versions of the Manley Massive Passive are monsters and perform like sports cars. Warm, aggressive and thorough.

I wish I had more than 5 stars to give it
Title says it all. I love it! I just wish it was all in one wrapper like the legacy pro.

Love it
I absolutely love this thing. UA, please give us more preamp emulations. This thing is really great for adding edge and aggression for lack of a better word. It's just a really strong plugin and is beginning to become a cornerstone for my sound.

Its a tough one
I used to use the legacy version on my drums with superb results. I initially couldnt hear how htese new versions were that much better than what i used previously but one of the three really hit the spot now I cant live wihtout it. I'm sure one of the three emulations will hit the spot for you.

Are EQs allowed to be this good?
Fire up the 14 day trial. Stick on the drum buss. Dont even tweak it. Listen.

Essential
This is a great plug in that is jam packed with flavour to make drums sound punchy.

Ordinary analog EQ
This plugin wasn't shock me at first time...neither at second. It has very own subtle sound,useful on guitars,vocal ,something natural...it adds "analogness" as well. But it isn't groundbreaking EQ. It is completely useless in dance productions,in my opinion.
P.S. HLF thing is outstanding. I use it all the time,this is only reason i purchased this plugin.

Le Son est Magnifique !!
Déjà la première émule était plutôt efficace, mais là c'est carrément incroyable, le son est de toute beauté, grand merci à toute l'équipe UAD !
R. Hofmann
Excellent and different
I was really curious about this, so I read a few reviews, and almost everyone was praising this collection to be even better than the legacy plugins. I couldn't believe that the differences could make a huge difference, so I demo'ed it and compared, and yes, there is a very noticeable improvement. Congratulations. I can only recommend everyone who already has the legacy plugins, to buy this new collection (it's cheaper if you already own the legacy plugins...)

Just can't get enough
Why is this the perfect eq? I keep asking myself.
1. maybe because its the faithful reproduction of the original, but i dont know anything about that as I have not had the luck trying the origial gear. (i only had chance to work with a manley harware compressor and it looks feels about the same)
2. the buttons. look at the buttons! arent they just sexy
3. unpredictable behaviour of slopes. just like a woman!
4. lets you dial in mid highs without the feeling that you have too much high in the end. i used to switch the third dial and boost around 1khz in shelving mode and it does it sooo nice
5. i only wont give 5 stars because i know uad will sooner or later come up with an upgraded version

Super versatile Compressor....
Great Compressor with lots of creative use. Very happy I got this one in my bag!
R. Andersen
Possibly the best analog sound?
Been a pleasure experiencing the remodelling of the collection. It has provided great warmth to my mixes and been used in every mix application. It's a little taxing on the UAD, but just need more power!

Luv It
Really nice on everything I've tried it on, individual tracks, bus, mains. Violins, guitars, piano, dials in quickly no fuss. Kissing a track or crushing a track... it makes a difference to my ears when I A/B with other comps. Still like to have other tools for specific things, but..... this one definitely has its own vibe and its very, very useful across a broad spectrum. Its in my favorites right along side the 1176's
Thanks UAD for a job well done. Desperately waiting for the AAX for PC..... and the Apollo fairy to stop by. If you see her knocking around your neck of the woods... could you nudge her my way?
Peace

Great on drums!
I use it mostly on my drums tracks... kick, snare, overs and drums buss.
I like the color it gives! I give 4 stars because it is not very user friendly. They are very different from each other and you will have to do some studying on how they behave and the applications they will sound their best.
P. Lira
No big deal.
I am actually disappointed with this plugin. I have been using the UAD Fairchild Legacy plugin since it was first released and thought that this new one would be just like the other one, but somehow better. In fact it is so different than the Legacy one that it could be any other plugin with a different name, but Fairchild.
So, either this one is the "real deal" and they failed on the first one, or this one is just a compressor.

Loving it
Loving it on bass and synths! I've never used the original hardware but I can appreciate the simplicity and sound of this plugin.
