The UAD Millennia EQ is sonically identical to the hardware version without ever having to worry about writing down a recall again.

In a mastering session the UAD Millennia EQ helps give character to the mixes — especially when playing with the J-FET and tube modes.

    Nicely musical just not identical to hardware

    It sounds good, nicely wide Qs on the mid bands, and it forces listening. Stepped frequencies are a strength in mastering and decision making. Just be aware of a small level bump depending on bands engaged (I often trim by -0.2 or -0.3dB for unity gain). Yes that's audible. And the EQ gain steps do not correspond with the hardware (which I've used for years). For example, +3dB sounds closer to +1 on the hardware. Hence its "transparency"?

    Surprising EQ

    I can't make any comparisons to the hardware version but I randomly trialed this plugin and was very surprised by its ability to remain transparent sounding while at the same time being able to push it way further than many other EQs while still sounding musical and not harsh. I've found a nice spot for it in my mastering chain.

    Millennia NSEQ-2 EQ

    I am a Millennia endorser. This plug-in doesn't quite make the cut for me. I wish that this plug-in was more like the hardware. Everything else that I have gotten from UA has been really good.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you’ll need an Apollo audio interface, UAD-2 Satellite, or UAD-2 PCIe card to run these plug-ins, using the onboard DSP. The plug-ins run on the hardware itself, without adding strain to your computer’s CPU. In an Apollo, onboard DSP processing allows you to run realtime UAD plug-ins with near-zero latency, and even record that processing directly to your DAW.

This refers to the number of SHARC DSP processors in Apollo and UAD-2 hardware. A DUO core system has twice the amount of processing power compared to a SOLO core system. More SHARC DSP cores increases the number of UAD-2 plug-ins you can run on the hardware.

No, Satellites provide DSP to run UAD-2 plug-ins in your DAW.

Yes, you can start a fully functional 14-day demo from any plug-in bundled with the UAD software. Simply click “Start Demo”, and start using it in your DAW.

UAD-2 licenses follow the hardware, it does not matter which computer they are connected to. You can have up to six UAD-2 devices registered to a system in your Universal Audio account, which share those licenses. See UAD-2 Plug-In Licensing Explained for full details. Authorisation of UAD-2 hardware is managed by the UAD Meter & Control Panel Application.
