It’s a classic, and for good reason!
When you need punch, presence, clarity, and consistency, drop an LA-2 into the chain.
It’s loved so much because it works so well.

Magic
I turned around for a long time but what a mistake all this time wasted!
In a few seconds you can get the space you want without thinking.
I can do without a good dozen plugins now.
A must to have and the icing on the cake now in Uadx

Such a great classic!!!
I've been in studio's across the world recording in many different styles. I've always paid close attention to what was used on my bass and a lot of times it was an LA2A... Not always the same version but definitely always getting a great tone and sound! I just recently bought this collection at a fraction of the cost of one real unit! Now I'm enjoying the same kind of variety and quality of sound I've loved in all these years of recording!

A classic you need to have
When I was an audio engineering student I had the chance to use the hardware. Out of the many software solution that try to emulate that, I think UAD's 224 is the best. That's a studio classic you can't afford to miss. Moreover, it's also available in Spark using native processing. What's not to love about the 224!

UA does it again!
Wow!
The adjustable mic positions for room life, the reverse verb sound design possibilities and what a piano sound, smooth and natural. Don't need anything else for a good recording environment. Thanks UA! Way to go, thanks to keep the good work done Mr. Putnam.
Found my last piano to work with for playing, recording and mixing. Ouffff!!! ...

Outstanding
I am blown away by the richness in tone of this synth - sounds really beautiful and feels so warm and full. Gorgeous analogue tone. Well done, UA!

This is a great emulation!
I love this equalizer. It works very softly and musically.
But I do not like that in the full version of the plugin there is no combined version of EQP-1A and MEQ-5, as is done in the Legacy version. This causes some inconvenience when mixing.
Regardless, I still love this plugin and it's my TOP 1 EQ!

Amazing
Perfect for tracking vocals

Great transparent compressor
This is awesome, very useful for controlling peaks without any pumping or other effects, top for transparent compression and very easy to use, love It!

Excellent Plugin!
I can't judge whether this software delivers the same results as the hardware. The plugin makes it possible to add exactly the amount of saturation and coloration you prefer to the recordings. The coloration can be subtle or very superficial. The plugin opens up a variety of design options. It is to be applied to single tracks as well as to a stereo sum. It refines the recordings.

Flawless
I literally just scored 95% of a short film score on this plug in. It’s my favorite synth plug in right now! So well designed!!

Amazing Plug-In
The Studer has elevated my mixes on a whole new level. I use it on a drum bus and the tape saturation I get through it is unmatched. It will be on my drum bus for the rest of my career, and easily is one of the greatest purchases I’ve made in years (and have purchased countless plug-ins). It’s a very versatile plug-in and can be used on pretty much everything!

Amazing
I really love how they sound
J. Bostwick
Awesome!
I'm not really an organ guy, but had a couple of coupons burning a hole in my account. This instrument is great. The promo videos don't do it justice, as it has so many more sounds than are showcased. Even if you consider something like this to be a niche effect, you'll find a home for at least one setting in your palette. Highly recommended.

Best compressor for vocals
Best compressor for vocals.
A. Smith
A must have for your music
Simply blown away with the amount of warmth it gives to your drums, vocals and any other element. Great bias, LF & HF filters to adjust to your liking. Would recommend!

Not Good
Sounds like somebody made a perfect recording of a Steinway with a down comforter thrown over it.
G. Campan
The real thing? Haven't used it
So people usually compare the real thing with a plugin emulation and they start their reviews so. Not me, as I never have used the real hardware. Nor do I feel the need to invest in 2 units costing as much as they do. What I can say is this plugin satisfies my needs of slamming drums and adding glue to a bus. Other uses? sure, plenty. Haven't tried it on everything yet. Sometimes aggressive is the key, sometimes a little goes a long way.
L. Steiner
Excellent
This synth is just excellent. Simple, practical, and just fun to tweak. If you challenge the features vs. other available VA synths, you should consider that this one has many decent presets. You can hear that some valuable time has been spent creating them. I like.
M. Kozlov
sweet comp
I prefer this one to La2a last time as the second compressor on vocals. Sounds very pleasant. Gives the analog sound that I need
