Great Mastering EQ
I used this mastering some vinyl transfers. Very smooth and musical. Great for tone-shaping with enough flexibility for light surgical fixes.

Excellent on Drum Buss
Has a really nice spank to it. Makes drums pop. Does something similar to the Zener Limiter. Very versatile

Snappy Drums
Great preamp for capturing quick transients. EQ is clean and useful. My favorite use is on drum tracks. Overheads and rooms specifically.

What a Reverb!
This is a true Enrichment in my Setup. Snare and Vocals are kissed by the Possibilities of this Plugin. It's Massive.

Tasty EQ
The UA Massive Passive does what its supposed to for a fraction of the hardware price! Highly recommended.

By far the best digital version of the API 2500
I have been a close friend of Paul Wolff since working at The Bayou in Georgetown D.C. in 1978 where he was the house engineer. I became the second FOH guy shortly thereafter.
He built custom devices in the FOH console including the Flanger/Doubler that Softube is doing a digital version of these days (UA..please add this to your product list soon.)
I bought a prototype 2500 from Paul right after he made one for a few old friends of his. It was a magic box for me. I stopped using the SSL Buss Comp on the 8000GB console I worked on daily once I bought my 2500.
The 2500 prototypes (maybe 12 were made) and the following production versions are wonderful pieces of hardware. I never found a digital version that came close until the UA version. If UA were to ask Paul about the changes between the proto and the production versions, it would be a great update to add onto the 2500. If not, the existing 2500 is a steal just as it is.

Workhorse
Just about every software company has made a version of this unit for the last 15+ years. Having recently discovered UAD the LA2 was one of the first things I tried and it's a proof of concept, this sounds as good as any compressor you can find.

MUST HAVE Item!!
Although I am a kind of novice for music, I can feel the improvement of the sound. This helps me a lot in mixing. You have to try!!
M. Ciuch

Easy to use and instant warm sound
this one of the best tape saturation i ever use, not only it sounds great its very easy to use and its low dsp, low latency plugin, i will recommend it to everyone who wants to get that nice warm sound

Great Substitute For Tracking With Chorus Pedals
I find this is a a great substitute for tracking guitar with chorus (which I find tends to sound small and confined when recorded through a pedal into a mic'd amp). It does everything from wet 80s chorus to 90s Nirvana-esque grunge chorus, although I wish the vibrato and chorus could be used simultaneously instead of as an either-or thing. Overall, a good plugin and it should take care of most if not all of your guitar chorus needs

a legend
First class compression bundle. Thank you for the great Work
P. Perfetto
Huge sounding
These are a great set of tools for getting analog warmth and color to your parts of your song. The silver is my favorite, with the modern tone and clarity. Its worth it, I use these in every session for mixing. I highly recommend getting this collection.

Excellent plugin!
Having used the Waves version for some time I took the plunge and went UAD's version or should I say update, as UAD's API 2500 is definitely the Rolls Royce of the two. Exceptional buss compression that can also be used on tracks and also comes with some great presets.
.
try it on the final mix bus
few words needed: simple & powerful

CLASSIC BEAST!
I use the LA-2A on any and everything. Especially vocals! Love it. Don't do any audio without it. BUY IT!
J. Wander
