Yes!
Recorded on Studers in the '80s - this plugin adds that special touch.

Jack of all trades
Super versatile and sounds great. Use on everything for whatever type of compression I need. If I could only choose one compressor to mix with for the rest of my days it would be the distressor.

Great front end
Had the hardware and was so pleased when UA released the native version. Sounds great, thank you :)

subtle yet very effective
i love the tape models, the bias control, and the saturation i get from this plugin!

Simply Beautiful
Be warned, if you install this you're writing off the weekend! You won't want to leave it alone. The word "lush" occurred to me most often. It's pretty much everything in an analogue-esque synth you could want with the "morphing" front and centre. If you need some superior leads/poly as well as GORGEOUS pads this has got what you're after in spades. Excellent piece of software.

First UA Plug-in
I must say I have been waiting for a single Distressor plugin for a while. Great Work UA I am very pleased with the simulation of the plugin. Having run it next to the hardware unit there is a small difference but not enough to say I won't be patching external hardware for the future. Bravo on a truly well-designed plug in that works well.

Note off DC Click & Bashed Hard Samples, no way to not use them
I read the reviews and thought this would be a great addition to the amazing synths UA has made but there are some flaws that make this a piano I likely will never use in its current state. Instead of a nice note off sample with a little thunk to it, there is a very loud click that equals their note off sample choice which doesn't sound realistic and once you hear it, you will never play and not hear it. Thankfully there is a "Release Level" slider to turn this off (it's at Max volume by default). The bigger problem is that the hardest hit samples have a almost painful hammer attack to them and I have not found any patches that didn't use these hardest hit samples. Even the velocity controls don't give you an absolute Min/Max so you could window below these samples - so if you're playing really loud intense rock, this piano might fit in perfect, of if you play with a feather touch, but I play full range and find this Rhodes sample set (at 8GB) is not useful for me. 1st disappointed purchase of anything UA makes, ever.

Just the right tweak, like the hardware.
It’s amazing to see, that software gives you the sparkle like the hardware. Easy to use..

Great Plugin BUT...
Native only?! Seriously?! First they release the Capitol Mastering Compressor, which is an AWESOME plugin btw but, when asked why no DSP version came out, they told us is because most people would be using it for mastering applications and blah blah blah....I wonder what they will say about this one now? C'mon guys show us some UAD love, please! Being able to load it up in Console etc. is the ONE thing that sets you apart, don't let it die out so easily!
