Almost like my Urei 1176
Think the best 1176 plugin on the market, use it for everything.

It's good to add Ambience&Groove increase.
The dbx160 release sustain is a good compressor.

Back at early 90's
I wanted to try the UA tape emulations and finally get Oxide. It remember me the time of the tape sound. Warmth, body. Simply, great sound.

AWESOME PLUG !!!!!!!
WORKS MAGIC ON YOUR MIX!

Fairchild makes a difference and has its own sound
I got this with a voucher having bought the Octo Satellite Thunderbolt. I normally use the Teletronix LA 2A plugin or its various versions because they sound so good on the mostly acoustic material I record. I did own a TLA C1 compressor hardware unit and I left it in the master buss and everything I did went through it. I sold it when I heard the LA 2A plugin but I have to say that the Fairchild plugin sounds just as convincing. It's different to LA 2A (and my old hardware) but it is very useable and I find myself applying it in every possible way (tracking, mixing or mastering). It's very processor hungry and if I didn't have the OCTO Satellite I'd soon run out of processing headroom. It suit my present setup very well. I use the Apollo Twin Duo as a principal front end. (not professional and it's all I need) Holmesflute (on Soundcloud)

If you try it, you buy it.
I try the demos and there are many diferences between the legacy versions.
The legacy emulations are very good from any emulation that you hear in plugins, but the colection emulations are superb, has another colour, another punch, another taste... I think this compressors bundle are essential for music production and mixing proccess.

Very Good Emulation
This Pultec plugin is extremely useful on just about all material.
It doesn't quite sound like the real thing - I have a unit and despite this plugin being used extensively, it doesn't sound as nice as the hardware.
Of course, all that means is that the hardware is *that good*. I use this plugin all the time, so who cares if it's identical? It's still excellent.

Excellent
This generation of the LA2A is the real deal. I own the hardware unit and only use it for tracking now - never for mixing.
Unbeatable on vocals.

Excellent Compressor
I own two hardware 1176s and barely use them anymore.
That is my review.

Useful on Group
I use Oxide as bus compressor on every group I create and the results are great.

Awesome
Used to use the real pedal. Great replication without the noise. Love it:)

so far beyond the legacy la2a plug.
love these dudes on bass, overheads and vocals... huge improvement!

dig this studer but...
...several other companies emus give it a run for its money. I think the ampex is definitely a class above this, and even prefer oxide, when it comes to uad tape offerings, but this is still a solid workhorse that definitely adds value on a harmonic content level.

lives on my two bus.
