tried to avoid it
i wanted to not like this since i already have an army of comps but this just has a great tone. doesn’t crumble when pushed. a must.
R. Vargas
faithful and lovely
been vibing with this and it just sounds really dreamy and large.

Syrupy
if you’re looking for a chorus, this is it. a must on rock bass, this thing just sounds great on everything.

Just the best Rhodes
At my opinion, just the best emulation ever. Also it's so versatile with the different amps, pedals and studio gear included. Easy to use and... the best thing is the sound !!!

Great sound, terrible software manager (UA Connect)
I love the plugin itself, really awesome sound, unfortunately I had a nightmare with UA Connect, I don't understand why a software manager is require if we're using iLok. UA Connect should be optional

Fabulous
This machine is an absolute bomb compared to the Arturia I'm using actually
It's , difficult to transcribe the emotion felt under the fingers and between the ears.
tested under Reaper in my dedicated home studio, on PC win Akai MPK 88 -apollo twin->soundId-->Focal alpha 80
the presets are extremely well chosen to feel immediately the palette of the machine.
there is a sublime dynamic which allows the smoothness and the big to very big sound under the pressure of the fingers, and there we feel all powerful
The richness in the details is fabulous

Water The F!!
This review is not about the sounds , which are excellent.
So, UA build a great B3, with a decent Leslie emulator. Bought that, works great. But you can’t feed it an external source. Then they build a standalone Leslie emulator (that’s probably better than the B3 version) that takes external feeds, but won’t work in Console - so bye bye live latency free tracking or performance with guitar.
Tried midi controlling the rotor speed? I have. It’s DOA. After an electric piano on an instrument track in PT, for example, the midi input feeds the piano, but the mod wheel does nothing. If your midi keyboard is controlling an instrument it can’t also control the rotor. Dumb.
It’s as if UA has gone out of their way to extract as much profit as possible from a single simulation…but not even done that properly.
PLEASE
1. Include the Leslie, with external input, in the B3 which loads of us use all the time.
2. Port it to use through Console
3. Sort out the midi implementation
4. Stop rinsing us.

Velocity?
If the playability had equaled the sounds I’d give it five stars, and buy it.
Despite the deal UAD are offering right now on this instrument I’ll be saving my money.
Very abrupt step between medium and full velocities makes it a twitchy ride. Hard to predict which notes of the chord will voice mellow and which will bark.
The sounds, amps and outboard work well but if you’ve ever played a Rhodes, you’ll be very puzzled indeed.

Amazing
The first emulation that, to my understanding, really transports all the feels of the original. Congratulations UA

Increíble
Increíble sonido, no he probado nunca un original, pero este plugin, al ponerlo ya mejora todo, super suave y con una calidez excelente, lo uso en cualquier estilo de música, comprimiendo o solo agradando carácter, increíble!

Avalon is must for any studio owner
Started recording with this the very day I got it and I don’t know why I waited so long to get it. For me it’s a goto plug-in when burning in to the audio direct it sound that good.

I heard / saw this plugin at Fab in combination with a mix he was working on live...And thought I must have it...Sorry I bought a UAD-2 Satellite Octo for this tape plugin ;-)

Wonderful EQ
Hard to make anything sound bad with this EQ. Owned other Pultec plugins prior to purchasing this one and I am not disappointed one bit. This one replaces them all. Thank you UA!

A beast
It was love at first sight,i'm using it in every recording session,it adds direction to the instrument wrapped in a subtle saturation.
