Sweeten
Add warmth to anything with classic reel-to-reel sound that can be gently overdriven.
Great for: Getting studio-grade tape sound on vocals, instruments, or your entire mix.
Edge
Get the effect of driving up the gain on an analog console to energize your recordings with crunchy saturation.
Great for: Bringing dull recordings to life.
Glow
Make tracks blush with rich harmonics, like the sound you get when plugging into a high-end tube preamp or channel strip.
Great for: Warming up bright or thin-sounding tracks.
Warm
An older and bolder tape machine. It’s similar to Sweeten, but with a deeper warmth and warble.
Great for: Getting tape sound with added movement.
Thicken
Hop in your time machine and explore gritty lo-fi textures from half a century ago.
Great for: Giving any track some added vibe and dimension.
Vintagize
Need a tone that’s all your own? Score thriftstore tape machine sound that’s older than your grandparents.
Great for: Making modern recordings sound old.
Distort
Get tube sound that’s been pushed to the edge, similar to driving an analog preamp a bit too hard.
Great for: Getting tracks to sound bold and exciting.
Overdrive
Tape tone like Thicken and Vintagize, but it grinds and roars even more.
Great for: Adding fuzzy tape tone to synths, guitars, drums, and more.
Fire
It’s that searing analog sound, like pouring liquid hot magma onto your track.
Great for: Adding texture to vocals and instruments.
Sputter
Need your recordings to sound broken, but in a cool way? Sputter gives you over-the-edge distorted mayhem.
Great for: Pushing tracks past their limits.

Wonderful tool!
Replaced my Pultec/Studer mixbus rack. Just set the Sweeten machine to 40, warble to 7 and you're ready to go. Only 4 stars because you didn't include a MIX button.

Sounds great on bass!
Sounds cool but a mix knob should be a must on something like this then it would be a 5 star review.

Why is the free version bundled instead of the full version?
Just bought the essentials bundle, and only got half of this plugin, plus an advertisement. Disappointed

C. Huber
pretty cool
at first i thought they were just gimmicks, but actually they sounds really cool and i have already used them on a couple of tracks.
only 3stars because it was only released on UADx and not UAD-2, i would love to run these on my DSP sharc chips and also on my Apollo on the Way in.D. PULGAR
Con los gratis vale
Compre el pack entero, sin embargo a mi parecer, con los que regalaba UAD, el pack essential sobra. Lo que añade no es muy allá.

Needs a mix knob
This plugin makes some nice sounds, but the lack of a mix knob makes it much less useful. I can send to it on a bus, but that's a lot hassle for a plugin whose whole charm is that it's really simple. Using a bus also means I can't freeze the plugin and I have to worry about phase. Please add a mix knob after the output trim!

Hidden Gems
I mostly use these when I'm using synths or drums to fatten or distort the sound.......works pretty good.......
m. ceeney
Cool little machines
Amazing little plugins, so good for saturation and adding some grit to your sounds especially drums and bass. Also got them at a really price..

Verve Analog
A+++++ Cool sounds!
L. de Marco Freitas
It's kinda ok. But there's better options within UAD plugins.
It's a fun little plugin, but I regret buying it. Don't get me wrong, UAD makes some awesome audio plugins, but this one is kinda gimmicky... anyway, you can achieve way better results with other of their offerings, it only will require more work and knowledge. It's my fault I fell for it.
Anyway, I guess you can still use it sometimes to have some fun, or to go outside of the box if you're stuck and ran out of ideas.A. Ponomarev
One of my fav saturator plug-ins now
I like how versatile this plug-in is: it contains a wide range of machines and colors. I suppose that the simplicity of the interface is its advantage, and I made decisions quickly because of that.

noo...
Have only the essential version - after trying that and the trial version I found it doesn't add anything I would like to have in my mix (ambient music). Too few options to tweak the sound; i found I rather don't use it.

The Past Is Future And Fun Again
When CDs first appeared, they were lauded as so clean, and would stay clean for ages, without hum, pops, or scratches unlike records, and with unchanging sound, unlike cassettes. But we soon felt there was something* just out of our perception of sand that was missing.... Some very smart people got on the case and over the years, discovered that the very reason we bought CDs in the first place was one of the elements missing from the experience of music. Not hiss or rumble, but subtle distortions and interference that made the sound *rich* to our ears. They called it warmth and they were right. Verve Analog Machines help bring that warmth in subtle -- and not so subltle ways. Good one, UAD!

1 plugin, many flavours. no wet/dry knob
my DAW has wet/dry knob for every fx, so no problem for me.
i used this plugin almost on everything and happy to have it in my arsenal.
strange GUI? maybe, i do not care.
Perfect!
Love it, the simple way it works is perfect for my workflow without needing to stay a lot tweaking knobs
