El Teletronix LA-2A es mi segundo en serie en la cadena de vocales (El primero es el 1176). Utilizo el modo "Silver" porque me brinda una calidez increíble y combinado con el 1176 me permite controlar los picos mientras suavizo la dinámica general.
Tanto el 1176 como este LA-2A, los utilizo de como plugins nativos. Estoy ansioso de que saquen pronto los EQs API en versión nativa, porque de momento debo usar los de otra compañía.J. Mora Sánchez

Please UAD take a look at Keyscape or NI
Please UAD take a look at Keyscape or NI . I hope you can release version 2.0 because this one doesn't sound good at all. A waste of money.

The one to beat.
As of this writing, this is the software synth to beat. It has Incredible sound and amazing presets. It has become my starter synth for inspiration and brainstorming. Perfect for those new to synths as well as seasoned players.
F. Pinar
Great sound, lacking additional features
This is the best-sounding Minimoog emulation I've tried.
However, it lacks some of the QoL features that are present in other brand's emulations, like an arp for example.
If you intend to use it as a real Minimoog, then it's awesome.F. Pinar
Sounds bad
I was expecting more from this piano since Electra 88 sounds awesome.
However, I'm hugely disappointed. Even with no reverb and with close mics, it sounds like it's recorded in a large bathroom. Has no intimacy/warmth in the sound, it sounds thin.
You can make it work with some eq'ing but why is the hassle, just use ANY other library.
Unfortunately, this is the worst-sounding paid piano library I have ever heard.F. Pinar
This the Rhodes you're looking for
This is the best EP I have ever heard for this price range. It's much better than the other brands and also on par with Keyscape. This is far cheaper than Keyscape though (while on sale), I can't recommend it enough.
F. Pinar
Better than the competition
This sounds much better than the other plugins out there from other brands. It sits very easily on the mix.
O. Tryggvasson
One of my favorites
I've read somewhere that Oxide is a simplified version of the Studer Tape plugin, with an inbuilt set of adjustments. DOn't know if it's true or not, but it sounds very different out of the box, and you'd struggle to get Studer to match the sound of Oxide by tweaking its individually adjusted parameters.
Oxide sounds great, it's refreshingly easy to use, and if you want that particular tape profile - which is great, round and warm, but clean at the same time - without having to wrestle to make Studer sound similar - I haven't succeeded, but I haven't tried too much, to be honest - it's definitely a good addition to the tape collection, especially since the price is not one you're gonna feel sorry about.E. Starzhynskiy
To improve...
The plugin is good but It would be great if you made a "mix" button directly on the panel.

This bundle is a great deal, but the UAD itself will lose relative value.
I feel that our suggestions for user support continue to be completely ignored.
I have already purchased 70% of the products in this bundle individually.
With that said, I respectfully write to you with my thoughts on this product.
I have no problem with products being sold at a discount to new users and beginners.
However,
I am very uncomfortable with the “practice of selling products at thin margins in a way that lowers their value.”
And please understand that the value of UA itself continues to decline.
Those of us who have supported UAD plug-ins as an asset up to now, and have been users since the beginning, have one wish.
To keep improving the UAD plug-ins as much as the hardware.”
What we are looking for from UA is “the quality of the UAD plug-in itself.
If we stop doing that, UA products will never be as valuable as they have been in the past.
Many users who do not need UAD will choose other low-cost audio interfaces of comparable quality.
In the current situation where UAD plug-ins are not of high quality, Apollo's value will continue to decline.
How many specialist users have given up on UAD since the first UADx release?
If we are going to sell such an inexpensive plug-in bundle product, we need to also release a high-quality, up-to-date rebuild plug-in every time.
We should let someone who understands the value of UADs rebuild our marketing strategy.
Anyway, I recommend this bundle because it is a frustratingly good value.J. Hovey
Absolutely Love it
As someone who's always obsessed over an accurate Rhodes recreation, I can honestly say this is the first time I truely felt like I finally owned a 'real Rhodes'. i've used other good products, but I was always left even partially wanting something a little closer. i don't feel that way anymore with the Electra 88. I can put this one to bed finally.

Dissapointing
Pure plate reverb was just not was I was hoping for from Universal Audio. I had to tweak forever to get a realistic sound.
R. Rati
Nice!
The Galaxy tape echo has that old time magic dust and gives you plenty of great sounding tracks.
E. Rosaleny
Fantástico en la guitarra!
