EMT® 250 Classic Electronic Reverb
-
Iconic lever-driven digital reverb and modulation effects unit.

Still regarded as one of the best-sounding reverb units ever made, the EMT 250 continues to leave an immeasurable mark on record-making history in the hands of studio legends like George Massenburg, Bruce Swedien, Daniel Lanois, Brian Eno, and Allen Sides.Track and mix with the only emulation of the EMT 250 reverb unit, fully endorsed by EMT International GmbH

UAD Demo Video
Featuring the EMT 250 Classic Electronic Reverberator plug-in
Used on Countless Classics
The EMT 250’s distinctive clear and open reverb sound has appeared on countless records, including Prince & The Revolution’s Purple Rain, Elvis Costello’s Spike, and modern classics like The Red Hot Chili Pepper’s Stadium Arcadium.
Exclusively endorsed by EMT Studiotechnik
Fully endorsed by EMT, the UAD EMT 250 plug-in uses the same algorithm found in the original, extremely rare hardware — designed by Dr. Barry Blesser and EMT industrial engineer Peter Bermes* — modeling a sourced “golden unit” from Allen Sides’ collection that resides at the famed Ocean Way Recording.
Added Versatility with New Features
The EMT 250 plug-in goes far beyond the original hardware, adding modern, workflow enhancing features like Dry/Wet Mix, Wet Solo, and Hard bypass. With these useful additions, the EMT 250 plug-in is even more powerful than the iconic hardware.
“The EMT 250 works great on snares. Keep it short and tight to add some dimension, or use the four-second range with full pre-delay for ballad-type songs.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)
“Now I have UAD on everything, and I'm using the EMT 140 and the EMT 250 as effects – It's so much easier.”
– Ryan Hewitt (Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Avett Brothers)
“Forget any other plate emulation, the UAD EMT 250 could actually be the real thing. Deep, wide, and full of personality.”
– Rik Simpson (Coldplay, Portishead, Jay Z)
“The EMT 250 plug-in is amazing. It’s all over Norah Jones' record. I used it on every song, it's that good.”
– Jacquire King (James Bay, Kings of Leon, Tom Waits)
“I’m a really big fan of the UAD EMT 250. It’s so faithful to the original unit.”
– Just Blaze (Jay Z, Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé)
“I use the EMT 250 because it has such a specific sound, and the UAD plug-in really does capture it.”
– Andrew Scheps (Adele, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Duke Spirit)
“I’m particularly happy with the EMT 250 Reverb emulation. It’s spot on.”
– Glenn Rosenstein (Ziggy Marley, U2)*All images and depictions herein referencing the exterior of the original EMT 250 are the copyright of Bermes Design.Customer Reviews

I won about 75% of the universal audio plug-ins and use them regularly. For some reason I didn’t own this reverb and I’m kicking myself for not purchasing it sooner. Just produced probably my best song and used this reverb on the lead vocals. Sounded amazing with very little effort. I highly recommend getting this.

Slowly finishing my collection
Haven't even tried the last couple of plugins, just trying to get as many plugins that I can, in fear of loosing Windows support!

Fresh and beautiful reverb
I'm a creator, not an engineer, so I was always thinking that I couldn't make a beautiful reverb.
I couldn't make the initial reflections and high-pitched reverberation well.
However, with this model, I can easily create beautiful reverbs.
I've been interested in the demo movie for a long time, and this time I was really happy to buy it cheaply on sale.D. Adet

The Plugin - Perfect. UA Delay Comp.... Hardly So
The plugin itself is a FX machine. 5/5 easy. A nice verb, a unique flavor of chorus & delay. Im there! BUT it is one (amongst many) UA plugins that incorrectly reports delay to host thus pushing rhythmic elements clearly out of time. Ive had this issue with UA for a while. If a rep wants to reach out im happy to provide all the info I can, I just want this issue fixed
T. Lippai
Superb delay machine
It is very versatile, you can cover any delay task with it. Glad to have it!
M. Malinski
Multi purpose device
Really good device, you can use only one for all mix, reverb for vocals, chorus for BGV’s, delay for guitar, phaser and space for fx.
And what’s more important, it’s sound really good.C. Bruce
Great
Use it on everything.
