1176 collection
I had a UA 6176, which I loved but sold after deciding to go "all plugin". I miss the 6176, but not so much now that I have the 1176 Collection.

Great reverb - easy to use!
This reverb is so musical and easy to use. It's easy to dial in a sound real quick and also deep dive if more time is available. No matter what I've thrown it - a tight room sound or a lush hall, it's performed with such ease and is a true pleasure to use.

Musical and smooth.
Many of the UA emulations I can test against the real deal. But when it comes to Pultec and Fairchild gear I can't say the same thing. Having said that I love the combination of either of the Fairchild compressors followed by Pultec EQ. I use an Apollo quad and recently my go to single chain is the UA 610 Pre, Fairchild 670 Comp then into a Pultec EQ. So Musical and smooth.

Sounds Great!
I have a UA 1176LN and Hairball Audio Rev A. The plugin sounds 99% there compared to the hardware. Awesome job UA! Now I have as many 1176's as I need on a mix. Two Thumbs up!

Very good indeed...
These compressors do amaze me, despite being aggressive if I want them too, they can also be subtle and real warm.,.. it´s night and day difference for the Legacy 1176!
Highly recommended tools!

Punch and Control
When you need to grab that transient and subdue it, this is the the beast to call on. Great sound slightly colored. all in all a great plugin compressor.

UAD 1176 LIMITERS
The really real limiters plugins ! They sound absolute amazing on everything ! The preset ''for everything'' is really for everything! :)

Functional Heft and Easy parallel compression
While I have not been able to work with a real Fairchild to compare, I recognize the sonic character these units contribute to many classic rock recordings. Having multiple virtual units to work with is quite fun, as each real unit is at least a few grand, if not 20.
My favorite thing about this plug in, beyond the amazing sound, is the built-in wet/dry control, which makes parallel compression easy to use sparingly on individual tracks.
I'm enjoying it on drums, bass, GUITARS, vocals, synths, and it's a go-to mix tool now.
Very receptive to tweaking and feel, especially with the subtle DC and headroom controls, and the 660 is great for mono sources.

Just great
It's sounds great - I love it :). The best Pultec I've tried.

cool plugin
never owned the real unit but i can compare it to some of the other plugins on the market. This one comes out as more real than the rest. I def dont regret the purchase!

My dream Reverb has become reality!
A loyal Lexicon user for many years. I never thought I could afford or own a reverb of this quality! Now I do!!! I swear it sounds good on pretty much anything! UA has done it again! Very happy customer!!
I. Pinkhas
Super! Very functional plugin! Thanks!
Very functional plugin! Especially on vocals! I'm glad I bought it!

Just add it to the mix buss and it warms everything up
It's true. I demo'd it, and bought it shortly after. GREAT Price - thanks for the December sale and coupons, UA!
Add the 1A with default settings and it imparts a very pleasing, saturated tone to the overall sound of a mix without disturbing EQ. Of course there are many other uses but I really like this so much, I use it on everything now.

Volume control
This is where it al started with UAD especially the for the D.
so you won't find any better than these. In code that is.
Cheers,..

C. Grouard
Impressive
Of course, I read the reviews before purchasing the LA-2A collection, of course it encouraged me to purchase it, of course I was confident knowing the extreme quality of UA products, of course I'm not a pro, neither mastering engineer nor HFO, of course one could considere that I'm not sufficient an expert to write a review, of course I never used the hardware equivalent BUT what I can tell you is that with these plugins, my music sounds soooooo well! so, what else?
G. Gallardo
As good as it gets
Definitely a must have in the arsenal, it helps to add that desired character, punch and cut through the mix sweet compression that my tracks love!
S. Lay
Nice compressor for the money
I love this thing. It is a great addition to my line up. Totally different than the 1176 and la-2a. This thing rocks. Thanks UA!
