Amazing sound and versatility!
I have applied the 1176 compression to vocals, drums, bass and guitars so far and it has blown my mind!!

Punched in the gut
This thing has its time and place and when it's fitting, it fits like a glove...
a glove slapping you in the face with every transient fired.

Recommended!
It's fantastic, the way it responses. I've been using the legacy plugin since it was almost created. And this upgrade its totally recommended.

mixed bag
This sounds nothing like waves cla-3a IMO so if they are supposedly modelled upon the same compressor somebody is trekking porkies.
The UA version has a much much shorter attack, can trash most transients in about 3db gain reduction, which at times is perfectly wonderful. The waves version sounds more similar to UA la2a IMO. I own both and use both as they are both different enough, as to accuracy, jury is out

Great Collection
I love this plugin collection. I have a few plugins from other companies that replicate the LA-2A, but these are the best. I like changing up compressors when doing vocals and acoustic guitar (I find using the same compressor on every track makes the mix a little stale), so using a different version of the LA-2A for each track makes the mix sound better. Great work UA!

Analog touch in a digital domain
To me the Fairchild Tube Limiter Plug-In Collection adds (while mastering) an analog vibe to the digital mix. When mixing I use this plugin on certain channels or instruments. With the Fairchild Tube Limiter Plug-In Collection my set up is complete for the mixing & mastering process.

Il mix,il sidechain e ... Gran compressore
Ottimo il poter decidere il wet della compressione con tanto di sidechain sulle basse ... Ideale su pianoforti e chitarre! Sempre più contento di utilizzare UAD.
Una marcia in piú!

Bang on!
There are some amazing plugins out there. But, this really takes the crown for most realistic 1176!! I can't speak for the REV A and AE versions because I have limited experience with the real units. I do, however, own 2 Urei 1176 Rev E units. I've done extensive A/B tests on all sorts of different material. I really can go as far as saying that they nailed the sound. The plugin reacts exactly like my hardware units. Crazy! This is a most buy for any UAD owner.

the classics
Really a no brainer! Sound great and you have 3 classics in the studio for 300 dollars.

Saturation
We have this exact tape machine at work. The plug-in sounds exactly like it or, if you want, totally different. I prefer the ability to change settings on a plug-in rather than commit to a specific real tape recording. My favourite preset is "Cassette"....seriously saturated.

Drums and Pianos A Justicestudios must have!
It's so amazing how technology have gone so far,
This plug is a must have when mixing drums and keys

I like it.
Of all the software versions of the 1176 I have tried, this is the best.

Nice snap to it - great on snares
Love it, got lots of other compressors but this just gives a certain bite that just works , especially when needing a snare to really snap!

Amazing on virtual piano!
This plugin is very impressive, I barely had to tweak anything, i thought it would squash my piano and mes dynamics but with very subtle compression it made my virtual piano sound amazing, it wasn't sounding bad before, but this brought it to another level. This will be my next purchase.
E. Sevmont
Try it!
I haven't purchased neither of the tape emulations, but I used my free trial and this is just musical, I'll def purchase it in the future. So many usable options, it's hard to mess up something when using this plugin.
E. Sevmont
Rock!!!
This comp just makes my life easier for rock instruments, very simple to use. This is one of the first plugins I purchased from UAD, their comps are amazing.

A must for vocals
The grey just makes vocals sound better, very simple to use, all of them are worth experimenting! This is one of the plugins that made me purchase UAD systems.
H. Pearl
Adore these, but one little suggestion........ please
Yes, it's amazing and I use them on EVERY tracking and mixing session. I know some will say this is sacrilege, but I would love the option for finer tune adjustments than I can make with my mouse. Why? Because it's a DAW we're working in. So how about option click for fine adjust or an OPTIONAL number box to slightly bump the value up or down a bit? Please do this for all the awesome vintage emulation plugs with tiny fiddly knobs. A good example would be the Klanghelm MJUC. Still has the nice visual and great sound plus the advantages of numerical interface.

Caught the Sale and Couldn't Resist!!
I've been eyeing the 1176 bundle for quite some time and I finally decided to make the leap when I came across the October compressor sale. I was absolutely floored when I inserted the 1176 REV A compressor into my signal chain and heard the amazing clarity and color out of my system. The REV A compressor plugin is practically undistinguishable from the Analog version.
I even went back to some older sessions and inserted the compressor into the signal flow of a few bass and kick drums tracks and could not believe the amazing clarity.
I've been using my UA Apollo for almost three years and I have yet to be disappointed.
Thank You to all of the engineers at UA.

favorite Old EQ
This is a very favorite plug-ins. I use frequently when you mix.It is especially base and vocals often.Anytime you come perfect track. Operation is also recommended simple.
