It just sounds right
Every time I use any of the Space Echo plugins I find it hard to fit them in the mix. But this one. It just sounds like it's always been in my mix, perfectly take a spot!

Simple & Effective
Excellent quality reverb sound with simple operation. Above all, it is attractive that this plug-in does not take up DSP data.

I was honestly expecting more
I so wanted to give a better rating but gotta be real to my reality. I thought this would be revolutionary, but it was not, unfortunately. Opal is not easy to find presets while you are moving creatively thru a song and need a fast preset on the go. If you take the time before hand to shape and design your sounds, you should be fine though. For me as a songwriter when I think of a sound to fit the song and I need it to be there within 2 clicks. As a producer it can really kill the vibe to be scrolling thru all presets to find what the artist is looking for. Somehow I'm still not convinced this is a UA product but I'll keep giving it a chance on Spark until it changes my mind!

This one is a sleeper
I had Ampex and Studer plugins for years after I gave Oxide a try. The plugin interface looks simple but the sound is huge. I love it more than the Studer.

Wow!!!!!!!
I have several tape Emu's but IMO this one is the best. I'm no expert but we've always had a reel to reel in the house growing up (Dad) and this plugin comes the closest to my ears !!!!!!

Nice add to my plug in list.
I use this to recorded all my Guitars, Bass, Keys and Drums. On windows, using Cubase Pro,
and Presonus 2626.
Works like a dream

Deep waters
I have only scratched the surface, but it is quite clear that the amount of fine tuning you allow is excellent. The sound is deep and powerful, and reminds me of the days when I was lucky enough to hear a Hammond/Leslie only a few feet away from me on the stage. Add to that the huge amount of Hammond presence in so much of my favorite music, and I feel very comfortable in these deep waters!!!

Opal a dream synth that is deep!
I got the Opal synth at the end of 2022 on a lark, wasn't sure If I would like it.
However this is serious synth and I do love it! Can't wait for new features to be added as
it only at version 1.x

Vocal magician
Couldn’t get the vocal vibe/ sound I was after in the headphones for that special take.
Heard about the Avalon and tried the demo and even just the pre-sets have changed everything. I’ve bought it together with the Masterdesk ( in the sale) and don’t need anything else. Absolutely thrilled how my work is now sounding.

Old school deliciousness!
For me, the standard for a guitar-thru-a-Leslie sound is Clapton in Blind Faith's "In The Presence of the Lord". This plug-in absolutely nails it!

Very good emulation, but lacks seperate rotary audio fx
Very good B3 emulation with a very authentic sound, but it lacks a seperate rotary audio effects plugin. The Rotary must be purchased seperately, which is a bloody shame. So at least sell the Rotary at a substantial discount to owners of Waterfall B3

Great Tape Echo
Easy to use and sounds great!
I. Lesmana
Way too roomy and need options to adjust mic placements
I always admire the sound of Steinway B and I think Ravel did a great job on getting the feel, the sound, the warmth of the piano. I just wish I have the option to manually adjust the mic placements, on/off of all the six mics or even choices of different mics. The piano sound is way too roomy even with only the close mics. Need to updates with these options then you will have a winner.. meanwhile I just wait and see

Not with Waterfall?
How do you provide a B3 virtual instrument in Ultimate 11, which includes this as part of 'Waterfall', and not include this as a separate plug-in? Very disappointed. It just makes UAD seem greedy.

Ravel piano
The sound is realy nice, the playability on my Mac is awful, I can’t use it it does this weird thing when you try and change chords it sort of plays a reverse note, very glitchy , pops & crackles. I’ve tried every option with buffer size etc but no good, ultimately I end up using my UVI C7 samples which plays fine. Very disappointed after big expectations from all the UA ads I’ve been getting after also buying a Volt interface . So £200.00 + spent I’m a bit miffed TBH , I hope they get it sorted.

Most accurate b3 and sound yet!!
I am blown away!! I work out of Malaco studios a lot where they have two vintage b3s and a vintage 122 Leslie and have had the pleasure of recording many different b3s, c3s and other great organs. This is the closest I’ve heard a software get to the authentic sound of those classic organs. I’ve been using the NI Komplete b3 and some nord patches recently in my own studio for ease and speed but this one has blown them out of the water. UA strikes again!
