Adds lush colour and warmth
Using this at minimal settings on different instruments just for it's colour and warmth, great job ua!!!

Beautiful!
Ben using the grey model on vocals and bass, sounds amazing! If you only have the legacy model, do yourself a favour and upgrade!
A. Cenerini
Life-saver.
I bought this after being unsatisfied with the Legacy version. These are the best LA-2/LA-2A plugins on the market; period. I've been using the original "grey" iteration a lot on a very sibilant vocalist and it has done a lot (in combination with a traditional de-esser on a side chain) to tame the tracks and sounds great while doing it.

Such a musical compressor!!!!
Absolutely love this thing! I can't imagine myself tracking without one of these. I love that you have three (3) separate characters of the LA-2A as they can all sound a bit different. I cannot live without the Silver one I have to say it's just so goddamn GOOD.
If you do a -3d reduction on it while you tracking vocals immediately it'll sound like a a pop record and everything is more in your face... Couple this with an 1176 and you have perfect harmony, no wonder why the pros rave so much about them.
I love using the old LA-2 on Bass as it will give me a subtle distortion that is very musical. It's so much slower than the Silver but then again it is so much more 'creamy'.
Very happy with my purchase!!!! 5/5 UAD VERY WELL DONE AGAIN!!!

Unbelievably good - indispensible!
I have nothing more to say except for these LA2 emulations are the equivalent of sonic crack ... wow ... Make's my Moog Voyager spring to life! Can't do without these. Get involved!

It's Magic!
Wow! I've had this only a week, but I've used it on some mixes that I've been working on , and this really rocks. Really digging the presets and also tweaking the settings manually. The tracks that I've used it on have improved dramatically. I can't wait to use it for tracking!

A major update in my plugin collection
Great on groups like Drums, Guitars, Vocals. Every model has its own special character. Watch the video here for comparison. Helped me a lot.
These plugins are fare better than the SE plugin bundled (which is good for trying lots of instances before "printing" the sound in my small setup with minimal external DSP power). I never would buy the Hardware which is too expensive. I go with these plugins.

Like the real one
The dbx160 got a very nice attack time and a nice sounding. Great for Drums ob Gutiars.
D. Biro
Professional sounds!
I love it these plugins! It give some professional sounds to my project, all the time! Thank you UA!

Matches the original.
I love the sound of the early digital reverbs, and specially the ones from Lexicon.
I own a Lexicon 200 Reverberation, and have compared it to the 224 plug.
Sounds good. Does not match the original though.
I use a Neve 5116 desk, and I must say, your plugs are very close to the original hardware. It´s a shame they cost as much as they do.
I´d rather buy the original hardware than buying plugs for several 100 $. They are not that good...

drum bus essential
Been using this on my drum bus and it just sounds great. The mix allows you to get more or less bass through and I find the small HR screw really helps slam or ease of the ratio in a unique way I have not experienced on other compressors. A lovely beast.

Incredible LA2A
This plugin is mind bogglingly good. So simple. Makes just about anything sound great! We live in pretty incredible times. I know have LA2A's. And lots of them!! Thanks UAD!!
O. Fossheim

1176 Collection -- in a word, excellent!
Very satisfied with my purchase. I found the "Legacy" models included with my UAD-2 lacked a bit of colour -- this collection has that authentic 1176 flavour in spades and have quickly become my favourite 1176-style plugins!
T. Bockowski
lexicon 224
im sorry for my english first , since when i use lexicon 224 my mixes are deeper , work with lexicon 224 uad 2 is easy and the results can be seen immediately when turn on lexicon to your tracs.
A. Booty
Better then ever!
I bought my first UAD card in 2004 because of the legendary LA-2A & 1176. It was the most plugins I use for my mixing. Still after many years both plugins never fail to give me the sound & color I need. After 10 years, the new LA-2A collection has broaden my music palette. I am speechless how good the new emulation sounded. Better the ever!
S. Casamento
The 224 is incredible...
Awesome is an overused word but in this case it is appropriate. The verbs you can dial in with the 224 can be very versatile and dramatically different. And a big thumbs up to the Small Hall.
I really feel like my options are endless.
Another great job UA!

Referring to LA-2A Grey
It adds nice treble somewhere along the way so I find it useful on soft voices that needs a bit high end. I believe acoustic guitars could benefit from it as well.
