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!

Excellent
Sans doute l'un de mes meilleurs compresseurs pour les BUS et surtout la voix.

It’s for real
I don’t notice the difference from the hardware and if you can good for you but to me it sounds and reacts as I would expect the hardware to. The real point is who cares if the end listener likes the song and whether they know or care if you used a plug-in or not. Save yourself a couple grand if you’re like me and can’t afford 10’s of thousands on outboard hardware. This one is a must buy.

Amazing !!
I’ve owned the very expensive 737 for years and it was always the first channel strip I’d go to for vocals. It was also the first high end channel strip I owned and I saved for months just for a down payment to end up financing the balance. I used the trial one day for a female vocal and my jaw dropped as to how accurate it was to the hardware unit. Of course I’m the only one in the room that cared to notice and everyone is looking at me like I was in a coma. If you’re like me and slowly realizing that expensive hardware like the 737 can be emulated so well nowadays save your money and use the trials to make decisions. Whenever the hardware or emulation debate comes up I always say use your ears and then ask yourself if the end listener will know that you used a $3000 hardware version or a $99 plugin (I used the sale) I would guess the listener wouldn’t know or care if they are enjoying the song, so where’s the argument now. This plugin is worth owning and you can unrack the expensive beast if you own it and get some cash back.

Love them
The new addition of a mix dial makes these even better and they were already the best.

Incredible plugin, although not as close to the original hardware
Just to say this plugin sounds amazing, preamp has 'the touch', compression is good (although the hardware can compress more being more transparent) and the eq works really well, not to say the transparent hpf. But the magic is the routing options you have, which makes it a real workhorse. In combo with the Tube-Tech CL1-B is a magic chain. Sinceraly, everyone should get it

My new favorite!
I love the sound of a good LA-3A and this plugin doesn’t disappoint! Another really great tool to have in my arsenal. Give it a shot on your drum bus, it’s got a unique flavor!
B. Peker
Love the sound!
The synth designed very well. It feels like programming a hardware unit. I love the voice panning feature. Also love the sound. Totally recommended.

Dieses Plugin ist absoluter Schrott
This may (???) be a nice effect plugin, but has nothing (!!!) whatsoever to do with a real Leslie cabinet, of which I personally own and use two different ones for more than 25 years. The original ones do have a very mellow and beautiful sound if softly driven, but can go up to a very cranky, but still soft sound if highly driven. This plugin however only produces some highly distorted artificial sounds, additionally overdone by filtering. This has nothing to do with a real Leslie cabinet. And this is the very first UAD plugin I really dislike. Unfortunately I did not test it beforehand, but trusted UAD! I repeat, I strongly dislike this plugin !!!

Simple. Does get you there!
It is quite simple to use. It does not have all the functions of the Voxbox but it does do a great job on my mic. Sounds amazing in Unison and that, for me, it’s how I think it’s intended to use.

Just beautiful
I was amazed how great this thing sounds. Being the proud owner of an original vintage Minimoog, I had the chance to compare and it does sound authentic.

Blend and warmth
An ideal way to blend tracks in a mix and make them sound rich and warm. I love the sound of Ampex 456 at 15ips. Back in the day, we used to automate each track to reduce tape hiss. I LOVE being able to turn off the tape hiss with the click of a button!
