INSTANTANEOUS RESULT
Put it on your masterbus, and it will give your mix depth and layers, great plugins!

Has its place.
Having used a Studer and Otari many years ago, I think I may have a little perspective. Like all plugins, this has its place and I do not expect it to always work on every source, but is fantastic when it does. I love the simplicity. I can put it on a track and after tweaking for 20 seconds or so, I know if I am going to like it or not. If I do, then I can fine tune it for bit longer and I am done. I also have the Kramer Tape and I like this WAY more. Nice job UA!

Very good reverb, has many presets.

Parfait pour les voix
J'ai acheté la LA-2A collection peu après avoir testé la version "legacy", qui m'a apporté un bel aperçu de ce que pourrait donner la version "collection". Je n'ai pas été déçu!
J'utilise principalement le LA-2A sur des prises de voix, mais il fonctionne également très bien pour des guitares ou des basses.
Le gros avantage est de pouvoir choisir entre les 3 modèles proposés, qui ont chacun leurs spécificités (vitesse d'attaque, possibilité de passer en mode limiter, emphasis...).
C'est d'une simplicité enfantine, et parfois, seul la couleur qu'apporte le plug, sans activer la compression, suffit à donner un résultat satisfaisant.
Ce plug est un must have.

Oxide's the Reel Deal
I recorded to tape most of my professional life, thousands and thousands of times. I've been in major studios hundreds of times, and have used most every brand of tape machine and type of tape. I've tried or bought most of the other major companies and producer tape sims. Only UAD's ATR-102, worked for me. It sounds great, but I use it as a form of EQ, saturation and level, because it really didn't feel like tape. Got UAD's coupon, bought Oxide. Oxide is the only plugin, really, the ONLY plugin that FEELS like tape. It was actually a little spooky. I don't know why, don't care that much why, but it's the first time I've felt right about a tape plug. Bravo UAD, whatever you did there, you've fulfilled a promise others have failed to keep.

Great Plugin
I can't say anything about it, it is very difficult to describe how great it sounds.
It is very easy to use & it gives you the sound that you are looking for in a second.
Just use one of the available presets and enjoy it.

Great Job
This is a great plugin to achieve fast results and great sounding tracks. It's not as dsp hungry as the ATR-102 (not as versatile too) so you can insert on every track and get great sounding tape saturation tones with little tweaking. Great buy!

Sounds Like Tape
Really cool emulation. Simple to use and great on vocals and drums.
T. Hosoki
perfect!!
When i use another Fairchild plugin from another brand, i never reach this quality of emulation... less cpu and it will be perfect!!
A. Wentz
Yeah, its that good..
Although I liked the original version, it was time to bring it up to the current high UAD standards. I'm grabbing it all the time now. Yeah, its that good.

A small step for....
Now we're talking, a compressor that sounds and works like a compressor. I would give it 5 stars, but I'm sure you will improve on it in a year or five.

Just great
It does what you would want it to. It's beautiful, rich, and full. The added headroom and balance controls are great, as is the mix knob. blow away the other emulations.

"it just smooths it out"
I never right reviews for anything. Just to lazy and not in the mood.
I put the oxide on anything that is harsh and it just smooths it out

Great plugin! I always use it on bass and drum. Respect.

Good for drum
It's work very well.
Great Compressor for making drum and bass more fat.
C. Soulos
What a worthy addition
Being a long term UAD user and having just purchased the Sound Toys package, I found the Decimator to be a real go to for achieving that gel I'm always looking for.
Now, as for bass, I found the Sound Toys to be a bit of a failure for my tone preferences. Ok if you like bald faced rock sounds but that's not my only playground.
So I took a chance on Oxide.
It's exactly what I needed to get that burning log fatness that I really like of McCartney's Beatles bass recordings.
Coupled with the Vertigo VSC Compressor on the bass preset via Brainworx, it's a no-brainer (excuse the alliteration.)

Good for punch
I really like how the low and high frequencies start to sound a little bit more punchy.
Will use it a lot for sure
D. Taylor
Excellent!!
Ver nice compressor. I like to through it on the master bus after I have all of the tracks dailed in. (Very soft compression. Especially if you are using parallel compression). Sounds fantastic! Really adds that extra something! :)

I won't bother with the whole UA plugins rock, cause we've all come to that conclusion. When I read these reviews, I want comparisons to other UA plugins. I a/b'ed all the eq's on a few different tracks/ songs and the pultec sounded the best for individual track use. I didn't even know my acoustic guitar was that lacking before. Absolutely lush and beautiful with the pultec. If you want a surgical or clean eq, try the Oxford or something else. If you want that oozing tone coloration, this is the eq. Easy to use and every combination of settings sound great. Helios is great for a similar coloration effect, and the Manley Massive Passive rocks on the master channel for adding clarity. I want the Harrison too, but this is your first buy!
