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!

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.

A must have with great colors
Oké there is nothing like analog but if you compare these teletronic pluggins with other 'Brands' The UA platform provides just that extra which makes it almost like the real thing. Nothing else comes this close. Worth it? Well worth it and a standard to have working in the box. Working with the right paint determines the end result. UAD teletronics bundle is one of The primary colors to work with!

Best LA2A plugins out there!
The LA2A Classic Leveler Collection sounds fantastic. I cant believe I didn't buy this sooner. The Legacy LA2A is great but these three are just a whole other level of quality. Worth every penny!

You knew it already... a must have compressor
Last week i mastered audio on ten Corporate films and this plug in was used on all the voices, couldn't believe how warm and rounded the sound was. Very pleasing to the ear. Works equally well on male and female voices.I have used Waves versions of the LA-2A in the past and this thing trashed them!
Definitely a go-to compressor.
I utilized the Shadow Hills mastering compressor on the two bus and that plug is impressively transparent when tuned right.

Finally... FINALLY!
For its specific uses (bass, vocals, etc...), this is without a doubt the best sounding compressor plugin on the market.
J. Rodriguez
Absolutely amazing
Before I had this collection I used the LA2A legacy and love it in the vocals, keys, and strings. Now that I have the collection, my favorite is the silver, it is just an amazing and flexible sound, it just sounds amazing. I like it on guitar and bass.

Best of the Best
Easily the most responsive, accurate and musical of all 1176-type plugins on the market. Truly remarkable.

H. Anderson
In a different league to the competition!
Having used the competitions emulations of these compressors I cant believe the difference in response and clarity they give. Absolutely blown away!

Warm, fat, analog tone made easy
This is absolutely some of the best money you can spend on a plug-in bundle. The LA-2A grey is the first thing I turn to for warm, fat, analog tone on vocals, acoustic guitars and many other instruments. I have used the hardware versions in many fine studios, and am extremely happy to get the same great vibe in my home/travel rig.
I would also add that the simplicity of these machines and the many interesting presets make these very good -- and forgiving -- plugins for fledgling home-recorders just learning to use compressors.
Great, analog-sounding gear, highly recommended.
M. Selby
Invaluable compressor bundle!
If you're just getting your recording rig together, this is one of the best bundles you could buy -- these compressor plug-ins will do you a world of good. I frequently use the 1176 revA in my signal chain while cutting vocals and acoustic guitars through the Apollo Duo, and all of these variations find their way onto many tracks. Lots of great presets too -- should be invaluable for someone just learning to use compressors.
I also highly recommend the LA2A bundle from Universal Audio. I'm an analog guy from way back and UA plug-ins really give me the warmth and organic 'feel' I look for.
