Great for adding movement...

Great for adding movement to any source. I use it a lot on guitars and keys or synth pads. It's brilliant!

That Pultec tone with UAD capabilities.

I’ve used the Pultec hardware for years, one of the simplest warm tones, EQ’s that just works. The UAD Version is an amazing emulation, clean warm and smooth, very nice plugin and when comparing to few others, I seem to gravitate to UAD! It sounds very much Pultec I’m use to. Recording a bit more “in the box” these days, it’s nice to have professional level tools.

Smooth sounding Lexicon 224 Reverb

I’ve always loved the Lexicon 480L and I was a bit new to UAD’s version, actually a very nice versatile version built upon UAD reputation of plugins. I’m using the Native Version and have found many uses, very nice performance, I have so many reverbs with my studio performing sessions each day.The Lexicon 224 has that professional sound with UAD’s capabilities.

One of the Worst imitator not emulator plugin.

This was such a waste of time, most of the higher rated reviews of this plug-in was from
non-experience user's that Never worked with Studer and Ampex, Otari, Sony etc. as I have.
UAD also has the worst Customer Service, I only wished that UAD gave refunds as many Professional businesses do "Beware of UAD Policies & Practice".

Pretty good!

Like most people I use this in drum and bass applications. It provides a great 'lift'. I'm not going to lie, I prefer plug in alliance MC77 but I'll use this in some applications as well.
Yet another good solid plugin from UAD!

the best emulation of 1176

Inevitable in my daw, it is in my top 3 compressors, it is the best 1176 on the market, it is the best emulation of the original, it has no rivals

Essential Plugin

Incredible plug-in that just adds so much to so many aspects of a mix and it’s even great as a guitar practice tool to play with a little more life than a dry signal

Excellent

LA-2A is the emulation I use all the time for vocals. I can't let it go!

It sounds really good, way better than other 224 emulations or convolution.

It is a tasteful and good looking reverb plugin, very easy to use, giving that instant 80ies flavour to your mix, effortlessly.
It's unfortunate that i can't compare it to the original unit.. as i know that a lot of people focus on how the plug in version compares to the real unit...
I can't comment on that, my job is to focus on what i hear.
But i used the 224X many times and own a decent collection of reverb units (lexicon, bricasti etc..) and a lot of plugins as well, and i strongly recommend anyone to try it, as it's a great product, to a more than reasonable price.
I compared it to other 224 emulations & convolution, and obviously, Universal Audio makes it better.

Sound is very good, GUI not user-friendly

The sound from this plugin is high quality. Also the presets are very good. But the GUI seems to be inspired by the original hardware, which means it inherits all the drawbacks of the analog era, not taking advantage of the possibilities of good, digital GUI-design.
I do not regret buying, due to the excellent sound.

I think a number of people don't get this plugin...

I think the UA marketing team may have been asleep at the switch... The beauty of this plugin is the integration of the Ocean Way room with the piano. The room + piano IS the instrument. Criticisms of the plugin being too "roomy" don't wash when one considers the obvious intent. I purchased and I love it.
