Are you from LA-2?
I can't say a bad word about these compressors. I've been using them a lot on my mix bus, just knocking off 1db but adding so much nice colour and character. LA-2 on the slower tracks and Silver on the more uptempo ones and it constantly leaves me amazed when I start to A/B.
And sorry for the terrible 'joke' in the review title.

Upgrade from Legacy
When I got the Apollo I figured I had enough 1176 plug ins and when they gave me the legacy edition ones I thought they were fine, no more, no less. During a recent sale I decided to pull the trigger on the 1176 collection wondering how different they could really be from one another and from the other off brand 1176 plugs I have. Well I am glad I did. These quickly became my go to 1176 flavors. This being one of my favorite compressors but not being able to afford racks full of these things, this is a perfect alternative. Like many folks, I do not want to say they are a 100% alternative to hardware (because then my hardware would be worth the price of a plug in), but they sound pretty damn good. For the price, it is a no brainer.

Work real good, black round buttons, good – me like.
Cavemen enjoy feeling knobs with mouse-hands, very tactile.
Can't use spear, bad, wreck monitor screen thing.
Me buy again, trade 3 stegosaurs spikes for purchase next plugin.

Best emulation of the Pultec
This is by far the best Pultec emulation I have heard to date. The low end sounds much better on this than my Waves version. I highly recommend this plugin.

Pultec Passive EQ Collection
I found this new release of these plug-ins to be quite handy on many sources. It is quite a step up from the originals. Makes the drums shine, but they are useful on just about anything. It was a great deal and I could not be happier adding these to my eq arsenal. You cannot go wrong with these.

Fairchild Tube Limiters a go-to
Having used many of the plug in emulations over the years, I've always had that reaction of "this knob doesn't do much," or, "not better than bypassed." Now, this powerful Fairchild Tube Limiter plug in really does something. I use the 660 and 670 plug ins on vocals and drums these days. The "poof" that you get on a drum set is as addictive as any compressor can be. Overcompressing a vocal just gets bigger and more electrified. If you want to use it on a mix buss, you may find you "can't hear it," while getting results of more loudness on your meters, which is ideal for me.
Having the hi-pass sidechain, the headroom control, and the mix feature absolutely make it the handiest and best Fairchild emulation I've used.

Nothing like the warmth of tape!
I love the Studer. This thing is a beast. I insert it on the Master bus and sometimes on every track. Deffinately my go to Tape plug I grab for everytime! Outstanding job UA!

In your face vocals!
I am very impressed by the LA2A collection. It realy sounds like the analog gear to my ears. I use these regularly in sessions on vocals and acoustic guitar. LOVE these plugins! I've used many other emulations of this hardware and none even come close to UA stuff. Highly recommend!
