Available exclusively for UAD hardware and UA Audio Interfaces, the AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in offers unprecedented access to the exact same DSP algorithms from the leading modern post production console.Mix with an exact, plug-in replication of the channel strip from the industry-standard digital film console
Access the same tools and workflow used by today's top re-recording mixers and post-production engineers

An Exact Replicate
The UAD AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip is not a modeled version of the console's channel strip — it is the channel strip. Because the DFC uses the same floating-point architecture as the UAD platform, the developers at AMS Neve were able to map the console’s DSP, instruction for instruction, providing the plug-in with the identical algorithms, features, and sound as the original.
Oscar-Winning Workflow
The AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in includes all 74 of the controls on the DFC console’s channel strip, providing you with the same fast and flexible workflow that post-production engineers have used on over 70% of international blockbusters. And unlike other channel strips, the signal flow of the channel strip’s multiple modules can be reorganized on the fly, with intuitive “drag & drop” rearrangement of processing modules.
Dynamics and More
The AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in features an impressive array of DSP processing. For frequency manipulation, you get four bands of fully parametric EQ and two bands of fourth-order filtering. A full suite of dynamics processors includes a compressor, limiter, expander, gate, and a dynamic EQ. You even get phase and width controls.
Comprehensive Toolset
The AMS Neve DFC console is revered by film and TV engineers worldwide for its ability to process a wide range of audio material. From quiet footsteps to multi-person dialog to battle scene explosions, the AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in is a must-have for modern post‑production creatives.

AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip
N. Hansen
Its great but buggy
Its a great plugin but its buggy. For one, the "Process Order" does absolutely zilch, so you cannot even put the gate before the compressor. Then the UI crashed on me twice, something that never happened with other plugins.
I would love to be able to use it more because its a great all-in-one with the signature Neve sound in the EQs and gate/expander section..S. Charron
Nice sound
Very nice sounding on dialog but need native version

My most beloved plugin
I use it a lot, and it has become one of my most essential tools. It’s clear and very precise, expanded with a lot of functionality (most feature-packed channel strip of uad). If you want something that sounds modern and elegant but is also very useful for little, precise corrections, e.g., very small EQ or compression when you need it, and detailed highs, why I love its EQ so much. The same developers made it as the original hardware, so it uses Apollo very effectively, with low DSP need. It’s the most underrated UAD plugin, top-notch quality, like the hardware, my secret weapon. For voiceover, DFC with VoxBox is also an excellent choice.

this is magic. I used it live at church on vocals and solved so many issues, it will save you a ton of work grab it.

Sounds superb
Very like the AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip. It is sounding awesome and never let's me stuck in a Project.
B. Brown
Incredible Plug-in.
Came here for the low key hype but stayed for the Gate/Expander.
Let’s get this out of the way. The DFC looks ridiculously out-moded. Like something Charles Dye three in the garbage back in 1998. But don’t let the tired, sub-rudimentary GUI fool you. This is probably in my top best plugin list of all time. It’s phenomenal. Buy it.V. Sulimov
All You'll need
The tone of this unit is second to none.

A classic
This is indeed a digital console channel strip but it sounds very good. clean and flexible with more options than you can think you will need in 1 plugin. I genuinely love using this for live situations

Much better than I expected and really easy to use
The DFC channel strip turned out to be a lot better than I expected, and really easy to use. I was kind of looking for a really good gate, but it turns out I also got a really good expander, compressor, eq and ... you name it ... as well. Sounds to my ears remarkably analogue in the very best possible sense, whilst not sacrificing its digital self. Highly recommended!

For the ultimate professional sound mix
I don't like to write product reviews, but for this product I had to. This is my first review of UAD plugins. This console emulation is AMAZING!! The best Channel Strip I've heard so far.

Clone of the Original
This is a digital clone of the actual AMS Neve DFC. I use it for live audio processing for Podcast, Zoom Meetings and Recording. One of the few UAD plug-ins that has Gate during tracking and live purpose. It seems to be underrated but it is actually one of the most effective and versatile UAD plug-in.
