EMT 140 Classic Plate Reverberator plug-in
Three Expertly Emulated Plates
The EMT 140 plug-in offers three distinct flavors of the classic EMT hardware. Plates A and B model the original EMT electronics system, for which the plates themselves had intentionally not been tuned in some time. Conversely, Plate C — the most full-frequency plate — uses the more modern Martech electronics which had just been fully serviced.
New Controls, More Flexibility
WIth “plug-in only” features such as Balance, Width, and Modulation, you’re able to harness the EMT 140 in ways previously unavailable with the hardware. Pinpoint a mono snare reverb with the Balance control, spread out strings with the Width function, or use the Modulation feature to add subtle shimmer, or an intense reverb trail, to a lead vocal. By adding these controls to the original EMT circuit, you’re afforded tons of plate reverb textures for all of your sources.
“The EMT 140 plug-in is Unbelievable. Love it. Use it all the time.”
– Vance Powell (Jack White, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs)
“Having the EMT 140 plug-in, it’s beautiful, I don’t have to commit to printing the plate.”
– Darrell Thorp (Beck, Radiohead, Charlotte Gainsbourg)
“The EMT 140 plug-in is perfect to add some warmth and size to a lead vocal. ”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)
“The UAD Pultec Pro, along with the EMT 140, are the two main reasons why I can't work without a UAD card in my system.”
– Fab Dupont (Shakira, Santigold)
“I use the UAD EMT 140 Plate Reverb on everything.”
– Hans Zimmer (Dark Knight, Gladiator)Customer Reviews

The EMT 140 is one of only a few pieces of vintage gear that I have never used. That being said, I don't feel like I could be missing out on much now that I have this plugin version. There...

Blown Away!
The EMT 140 is one of only a few pieces of vintage gear that I have never used. That being said, I don't feel like I could be missing out on much now that I have this plugin version. There doesn't seem to be any bad settings, and the EQ is really useable unlike most plugin reverbs. It's been one of those things that immediately found its way into every mix I work on. It's now the first reverb I try on nearly everything.

EMT 140 Reverb
Amazing reverb adds depth and warmth to a mix and can add flawless tails to any sound it sounds so nice on vocals! Thanks UAD.
E. Fischer
Super versatile
I was actually considering buying a real plate for a project I was mixing. No need to after I got this plug in. I've spent a lot of time using a real plate so I knew what to expect and this does not disappoint.

Warm and Fuzzy
This is one of my absolute favorite reverbs. I am addicted to the warm sound of classic analog gear. I find myself reaching for this thing on a daily basis. You just cant beat the sound of a Plate verb in my opinion. Nice and warm. Experiment with it and you can create some awesome space for your source material. Outstanding plugin!
S. Margelisch
Absolut perfekt!
Ich war schon lange auf der Suche nach diesem Hall! Absolut perfekt! Danke Universal Audio!
E. Mentzer
Great plate!
This is the best plugin version of a plate I've heard — has that rattle and shimmer like the real ones! Lots of harmonic content and three dimensional spread. I like it!
M. Casabianca
Amazing !!!
The best plate I've never heard
Fantastic emulation !J. Fox

The EMT 140 Classic Plate Reverberator is the best reverb plugin I used. Very good for drums and also vocals.

EMT 140
It’ s just my favourite plate reverb plugin, sounds really good, I’m always using it my mixes.

Went Right to Work !!!!!
I put the plugin right to work on one of the songs due to be released on my next project, and it will see more action. Quite smooth and it gives people like me that sometimes want a good ambient vibe, not an obtrusive reverb that becomes bothersome. And I must add the latter statement is relative to the song, some songs I may want more. Thanks again UAD, you guys are constant guests in my studio!!!
R. Trias
High Quality Reverb
It is honestly hard to make this sound bad.
Demo this plug-in, be amazed, and immediately buy it like I did!A. Hart
Used in all my mixes
This reverb immediately found a place in my mixing template. The biggest difference is how quickly I can get inspiring sounds from it. By far the most convincing plate reverb plugin I have ever heard and I don't know what I would do without it. You can add just a touch of depth to drums, create a smoky atmosphere for a lead vocal to sit in, or drench a surfy guitar.
A. Baum
Instant Lushness
I've been trying to get a nice plate sound out of many plugs, this is the one for me. Strap it in for instant lushness. It's so easy to use because it sounds great. Thanks again for a great product.

Our best Reverb PlugIn

EMT® 140 Classic Plate Reverberator Plug-In
I am fairly new to the Universal Audio family but it's a family I am proud to be part of, I just love everything about Universal Audio.
I have only used the EMT® 140 Classic Plate Reverberator Plug-In twice and I already feel it's a plug-in that I will be using a lot, I used it on my bass I was trying to get an old 70's sound and within seconds I had it. I didn't have to do to much fiddling with it and BAM the sound I wanted was coming out of my speakers.
Like I said I have only used it twice so I need a little more time with it, like all the other plug-ins from UAD I know I won't be let down and look forward to having a good play with it and using it to it's full potential.
