Great compressor!
Excellent in working on the drum bus. Good voice warming, works very nicely on the master bus.
J. Mendel
Wonderful!!
Love the rich tone of this preamp! I love the VoxBox, but this is way better for unison slots in Luna! Super glad UA came out with this version!
E. Perdomo
Brilliant Plugin!
Just load it up boom. That's it! You have set yourself for a treat. Highly recommended!!!
E. Perdomo
This is amazing!
This plugin is so spot on. The sound is so natural and increidble clean! Get this Chorus!!!

Give me that Leslie grind!
Sounds fantastic. Stereo version stays present in the mix. Nice to be able to change mics for different flavors. I'm partial to the Coles ribbon and tube 67. Very warm, chewy vintage sound, great on synth bass and guitar. Would be nice to have more control over mic position rather than the 3 positions available, particularly variable distance.
No problem using it live natively at 96k, 128 sample buffer as far as latency. So I do not miss UAD version. And LUNA has added the small buffer option, so can even be used live as native in LUNA.
As for price, I look at the big picture. Luna was completely unexpected and remains free. I feel like any plugins I purchase also go to LUNA development. To get the Waterfall AND Luna native compatibility on the same day, for $99....heck yes, take my money.
Keep it up UA!!!

Un jolly
E' un plug, ma consente di far molte cose, dalla compressione alla saturazine, ma anche all'equalizzazion. Riesce a dare una bella botta di bassi alle batterie e grazie alla versione nativa si puo' mettere su tutte le tracce senza pensarci due volte, rispetto altri plugin di altri marchi pesa meno

Magnifico
E' il compressore che utilizzo di piu', non fa rimpiangere l'HW!

Fantastic Rotary plug!
I am in love with this kind of effect in general, that's why I own most of the plugin solutions and I think am very picky about them! So I actually was never really 100% happy with the results I got from the ones I had. Nothing so far could beat my Neo Vent 2 pedal (which models another version of that rotary speaker).
So I was super happy to see this coming up, tried it and love it! As it is often the case, everyone needs to decide for her-/himself if one likes the sound, and I definitely think this one provides at least what I expected!
A DSP version might be a nice addition, so I could also use it with my Apollo x more seamlessly but actually I very much appreciate UAD moving towards the native realm, making use of what is (and will be) available there.

A "must have" Instrument
What a joy this is to hear on my tracks. It's so close to the real thing and soooo much more convenient to use.
My only gripe is that the Leslie cannot be instanced as a plugin by itself.

My debut at Universal Audio
I won't spend a lot of time writing about it here, because I feel that every minute without experiencing something in it is a wasted minute!

Time saver
As with other UAD plugins I've used, this one gives instant results with minimum efforts. It also sounds good on almost everything I've tried it on, from piano to drums, from background vocals to strings group. It widens the sound in a very pleasant way and lets other tracks come through without conflicting or overlapping. Sometimes you may find that you don't need to use any other plugin on top of Studio D Chorus (including compression, EQ etc.) because your track already sounds great.

Amazing sound with minimum efforts
This plugin will make your tracks sound better just by putting it on a channel. Then only a few knob twists and you will be amazed by how it opens up the sound, making it thicker, more open and cleaner at the same time. Its low frequency boost/attenuation trick is invaluable when it comes to bass or mix bus processing, taking a lot of guesswork out of the picture.
I haven't been able to work with its analogue counterpart, but out of all other Pultec emulations this one is surely the best I've used, as it gives great results almost instantly. That is what a great mixing tool should be!

A True Leslie Cabinet emulation!!
Very well familiar with the Leslie rotary speaker systems via church venues and also being around them in funk and soul band setups. Love the sound and the plugin is closer to the original than any of the other similar simulation plugins I have in my arsenal. If you just want a rotary sound... sure any plugin can probably accomodate. BUT if you no the sonic difference between a rotary sound plugin and a leslie cabinet then you'll love this plugin! It won't disappoint.
I would agree with others though that it definitely should be available for DSP integration BUT at the other end of the spectrum..... I have often found myself push my DSP load to the limit so having the option to distribute some of the load to my system is nice.
UAD, please listen to your loyal patrons and provide this plugin on the UAD platform as well. I would find it a benefit as well.

Too hot on the Mix Bus!
This here is a monster, it works for everything. I appreciate a lot in guitars and drums bus.
E. ARRUDA
Maximum utility.
I was crazy about the Distressor. I was very surprised by his harmonic distortion in the right measure, especially in the vocals and drums.
E. ARRUDA
1176 Incomparable tool
Honestly, there is no tool similar to 1176 Classic Limiter Collection. I've used everything, with all due respect, but other emulations are far from UAD.
J. Greiner
Outstanding!
This is by far the best Leslie emulation I’ve ever used.
A. Koilybayev
Amazing tape saturation
I am absolutely delighted with this plugin, I use it in every project. I use it on vocals
A. Goncharov
Instant magic!
Just adding this plugin on a track or a master buss changes the sound in a very pleasant way, makes it less harsh and thicker at the same time. I haven't yet found any source that would not benefit from using the Oxide Tape Recorder on it, from piano to synth bass. I wasn't able to recreate or achieve the same nice touch with any other tape plugin I've tried so far, so cheers UA!

Good sounding synth but has a lot going on
I don't use this much but it has some fantastic pad sounds. The interface is a bit daunting and the presets are a bit all over the place but there are good starting points. 4 oscillators gives you lots of runway for sound design too.
