Best tape emulation plugin you can get
This is a must for all who mix in the box and don't have access to expensive outboard analog gear.When added to guitars it just adds something that eq would not be able to do,presets are great and worth experimenting with for different flavours.A must for all who mix in your DAW.

Very light on dsp power
I have the twin quad and placed it on 14 tracks and still had power left over for other plugins. I use it like the setup in a real studio.

Sounds like the real one
It’s getting way to easy to make great records now. This is a good thing because you can have a great artist record or mix at home for 1/16 of the price then in a major studio with this compressor.

Studer Tracks
I love the Studer A800 since it is so easy to use, has great sound, and can be used on multiple tracks. I put the Studer plugin in on individual tracks (sometimes mix bus) and use the Ampex plugin for mastering. It's a great combination for professional analog sounding songs.

Sublime!
I'm new to the UAD platform, but I knew that this plugin would be one of the first I purchased. I used a Space Echo extensively in the '90s and this thing really captures everything I loved about that ratty old box of sonic delights!

Magic on vocals
I love the sound and simplicity of Oxide Tape Recorder plugin. It sits on my vocals bus as last plugin in chain and all the magic happens.
Beautiful saturation, warmth, and opens vocals wonderfully. There is also some lovely width I can't describe, but the minute I bypass Oxide it sounds flat.
I don't know what magic UA put behind it and I don't care :) Oxide Tape Recorder is a must have for me.

True warmth and tone of Tape in a plugin
I'm very (no, extremely) skeptical when it comes to spending substantial $$$ on plugins and this one was no exception. So I really did hard and long research examining the good, bad and potential ugly reviews that can accommodate the pre-investigative work.
But surprisingly, I found far more excellent ratings than anything else. I also acquired as much information as I could in terms of documents and videos on the usage and listening to the results of applying the plugin on a track.
So after much research and digging, I was compelled to dish the bucks for this plugin and I don't regret 1 dime I spent on the investment. It really adds a very noticeable and familiar warmth that I remember well from the analog tape decks. The harmonics really add character that from my experience that pure digital recordings lack.
The gang feature is very useful along with other useful features that allow you to accomplish things that otherwise wouldn't be attainable from using the physical deck.
If you want to make a sound investment as opposed to a quick inexpensive buy, go for it. You won't regret it.

as a distressor owner...
this is by far the best software version i have found. maybe not 100%, but it's behavior/reaction is very similar and it's nice to have access to multiple extra distressors come mix time.

i keep coming back to these fairchilds...
sometimes i forget how great these are... and then i pull them out for a mix and they are still satisfying all these years later. truly quality emus!

Add color and depth to your projects
Absolutely love this compressor and the color it gives anything I put it on.

Überzeugende Tape Simulation
War gleich von Anfang an begeistert vom Sound. Schiebt schön im unteren Bereich und oben britzelt es. Wunderbar für alles vor allem für Drums aber auch Bass, Gitarren und Gesang werden schön verdichtet. Eine automatische Angleichung der Lautstärke bei gedrückter Shift oder Strg Taste beim Input zum Outputregler wär schön gewesen. Aber ansonsten ein tolles Tape Plugin, welches bei mir in jedem Projekt zum Einsatz kommt.

Love this Reverb
I really love this reverb. Very powerful and very easy to use and setup for great sound.
It needs very few power for my UAD System and give a lot of power and reverb where i need. It has some good presets! Great plate reverb!

Amazing Tool
I love this Distressor! Very powerful tool. I use this on a lot of kind of tracks and sounds.
I really love it!!!
M. Ruckels
The magic reverb.
It's the reverb you can feel, but can't hear. Fabulous.
P. LaRose
WOW!
I haven't had too much time to put this plugin through the paces. However I did experiment with an existing mix by replacing all of the instances of another well known tape emulator with the Oxide and it made a huge difference.
