Great Great!
It kills the Waves version in my opinion. I love it on Piano and bass. It's awesome on drums and vocals too. Great sounding, although I have never heard a real Fairchild on my own mix, but I think for this price the UAD can't be beat.

Best channel strip plugin ever
I was not planning on getting this before demoing it but after I did I knew I would be buying it. It is such a useful tool. Preamp saturation, filters, gate, EQ, Compression and level control all in a single interface. The fact that it can be used with unison preamps make it indispensable for tracking. One of my favourite features is something that's often overlooked but the metering range on the compressor makes it very easy to dial in gentle peak limiting while tracking.

Nice EQ - Pultec
Very smooth easy handling. With authentic Pultec overtones.

Amazing recreation
Having spent countless hours operating a Studer A820 as soon as I insert the plugin version I can almost swear I can smell the acetate of s rolling 24 track machine. Being able to track through it with the apollo and mix with it on busses has instantly improved my mixes. Highly recommended.

Better than the new Waves 160!
I don't care what anyone says but this is still better than the new Waves one that they recently released. This thing is quite old now but oh well it's still holds up to it's name. I use it on parallel with a lot of stuff! You just can't go wrong with it as it just has this smack that you can't get with anything else. It's a type of smack that you'll only get with this type of compressor. It's a really nice colour and oh well it's so versatile...
Absolutely perfect! In the future I hope UA will update it's GUI to a bigger one to match with it's new plugin layouts as for some it can be a bit hard on the eyes!
10/10 Regardless!

I Am A Believer!
I've used quite a few LA-2A's in my day and I was super skeptical when purchasing this plugin.... It didn't take long before i saw its core power! This compressor became my permanent compressor for my vocal chain when tracking/mixing in the box. Male, Female, low voice, a high nasally voice, it doesn't matter! UA made the compressors like virtual tanks!( And not a DSP hog like other units are.) *thumbs up* , Cheers!
D. Young
Excellent compressors for any application
Wow, these 1176 that come equipped in the Classic Limiter Plugin Bundle live up to all the hype. I have used a ton of Universal Audio and love both hardware and software versions. Whether is tracking/mixing (or both with the Apollo) vocals, a snare top, or an acoustic guitar this compressor can handle the workload and sounds almost identically to using the hardware version. UA did a get an excellent job! Definitely one of my go-to compressors when mixing in the box. Cheers!

perfect addition to Ampex
After working with UAD Ampex (which is in EVERY of my mixes - mostly on the stereo bus) i've fetched the Studer to my toolchain and are happy again - while the Ampex felivers a more subtle, but more "broad" affecting enhancement on nearly any stereo/mix bus the Studer seems to packing more heavily onto tracks, making it ideal for individual tracks to me. Compared to i.e. WAVES Kramer Master Tape it sound's a hearable step more higher / forward. This is an addicting tool which you will buy if you hear it - even. with the presets. As a next step i'll try to experiment with it as a sound design tool and investigate i.e. delaying / modulation "tricks" with it. From my view this (both) are just the best tape emus for mixing and mastering.

Great mix buss glue
Fantastic on my main mix bus! I've never used the hardware so can't compare to this but this is a fantastic plug in for me. I use this on almost every project. Side chain is always useful with kick drum heavy mixes as well. A++++

Sounds like a real tape machine!
This emulates tape so well! thats all that needs to be said. I can choose different types of tape, and I can change th IPS. That's all I need. It's great.
B. Miranda
Great for everything
Anyone who says this plugin doesn't work is an inexperienced audio engineer. It took some time for me to get used to. It sounds so good. It changes the frequencies without making it obvious. I have used this on my master fader and for mastering. Worth the money. Love it. Great work UA!
B. Miranda
Sounds great!!!
I have the actual LA-2A at the studio I work at, and I have to say I am surprised how well this emulates the real deal. The only difference is the hardware adds more low end. That's all I noticed. I don't even care about that minor difference. Great plugin for vocals.
