Smooth and forward

I A/B'ed this against another well-known LA-3A emulator plugin and this one won hands down. The other plugin exhibited unwanted pumping behavior with minimal compression, while this one remained smooth with the same gain reduction. The compression was more transparent, but it brought the vocal to the front nicely and gave it a little mid-push.

I was waiting on this one to see if they would make an updated version. Now that I finally gave in and bought it, I'm sure we will see the updated version soon...

Great sounds right from the presets

I never used any of the hardware this plugin is based on but I can say they make every track sound awesome. Just swapping between presets is aurally pleasing.

A classic lives on

This is a useful, good sounding compressor that is intuitive to use and maintains the character of the original. As I recall, this is one of Bob Clearmountain's favorite compressors, and if it's good enough for him, it's GOOD, indeed!

Fairchild Tube Limiter Collection

From warm and subtle to grainy and present. Not your modern compressor of course, but a great color for the palette.

FULLNESS!

I only have used The LA 2 since I've got this pack. But BODY AND WARMTH AND DEPTH, DEFINITION..

I love this as a 2nd compressor in the chain. Beautiful master piece of a plugin!

GET IT! WORTH having in the arsenal

Great Compressor

I bought this one because we have two LA-3A's at the studio where I work. I wanted something at home to use especially on snare drums.

The plug in really sounds and reacts like the outboard ones at the studio. I've already used the plugin on two mixes and I am really glad I have it.

Best Tape Emulation plugin in the industry

I have never seen or heard any plugin that nailed it like the UA Studer A800.

With UA's Plugin Technology and all the Hhigh Quality" Audio Interface/Converters out there, I still wonder if there's any need spending fortunes on Hardware Gears (Excluding Mic Preamps) these days.

The glue

I automatically have been throwing this on my master fader to get that "glue". Very versatile plugin for type of music you are recording/mixing or on individual instruments. I have had my eye on this plugin for a while and wish I had gotten it sooner. Love it.

Highly tunable

I already have lots of reverbs but I thought I'd give the Lexicon a go and am so glad I did. No wonder this was so popular - the great thing about it is that the sliders give you so much control over the reverb content so you can 'tune' in the reverb to suit the mix.

Quite often with other reverbs you will get a beautiful sounding reverb but it may have too much bass or mid content and muddy the mix - with the Lexicon, you can tune this to satisfy. The button controls take a bit of getting used to but the responsiveness of the sliders make up for that.

I now use the Lex along with the EMT 140 as my every day go-to reverbs. All my convolution reverbs get reserved for the odd special effect here and there.

Love it.

Smooth without the Hassle of Tubes

UAD has done it again - I assume that MK. III of this plug-in collection will simply be them shipping the hardware straight to your door.

WOW!!!

I don't have any previous knowledge as to how this plugin is suppose to work, but I know it sounds absolutely amazing. I definitely recommend it.

Your search ends here.

After years of using various 1176 emulated plug-ins I will hands-down choose UAD over them all. They truly sound like the original hardware. Add these to your toolkit and you will find yourself using them in every mix as I do.

Perfect sound....The exact same color than the real one. A perfect tool to distress discreetly the acoustic guitars......Thank you UAD.

Fantastic

I didn't know if there would be much of a difference between these UA plugs and the other similar plug-ins out there, and i was a skeptic at first. But these are the real deal, they sound fantastic on just about anything, and are worth every penny. I've used them on literally every song i've worked on since I've bought them. Highly recommended!

another great

while I nearly always have the LA2 compressing my mic'd synth pads, the brushed LA2A is my goto on so many other things..
