Another home run for UA!
I got the 610B with my Apollo twin, and was pretty impressed with the plugin. It seemed to add very nice qualities to any recorded signal. But then I demoed the 610A and I'm still blown away by the euphonic sound!
The 610A is quickly becoming a must-have tool for my music projects. I cannot A/B against a real 610 hardware but IMHO these emulations are yet again a "level up" in modelled nonlinear audio processing. The Unison technology has vast potential and no doubt UA will introduce more sonic goodness as Unison pre plugins in the near future.
My only gripe with this plugin is the intense DSP cost (justifiable because of the sound, but still!). Hopefully (solid state?) upcoming pre emus will be possible with a smaller DSP footprint?

great plug - bummer on the voucher
love the plugin, use it lots on di keys/bass - paid full price as i never got the voucher issued to apollo owners - bummer on that.

ITB mic pres that rock
I am blown away by both of these. I have 500 series Great River, API and Shadow Hills mic pres and was ready to buy another pair of high end pres, but after hearing these I'm actually choosing these (with the Apollo) over my other pre's. My wife's SG bass sounded superb through both of these (and the API vision as well) using the Hi-Z inputs on the Apollo, and we actually preferred the tone over the other mic pre DI's. Ditto for my Les Paul using the Apollo's Hi-Z and adding some LA-2A was like butter with extra butter. The green one: "sound like a hit record" and the brown one "smooth, baby". At least that's how I've dialed them. Thanks UA!

tried the demo.....rest was history
don't try this plugin cause you will somehow scrape up some dollars or barrow it from you're friend to get this plugin

My Dream Comes True
Since 2012 I Love the LA610 MK2 Pre amp.
I have not that much of money to purchase the Pre.
I would travel 700 kms to Record with LA610 in Professional Studios.
I prayed " Is there any possible way to get this pre amp in my UAD Satellite?"
Now My Dream amp is in my UAD.
So to me
" This is the Best Plugin in the World"

lovely plugins I taught about getting the hardware version of the 610 I tried the plugin with my Apollo and my my vintage neumann after i was done in a great room i still used the the ocean way plugin to add more texture ...what a gift from god..........

Can't believe this is so good!
I was kinda skeptical of the preamp modeling claims over the years, but of course knew UA would do something special....... I was just blown away by this one.
Im not sure how they made it react like a real preamp without sounding "linear" and like a simulation. This actually capture the dynamic of a preamp with a mic and is not a "after process".
This plug really changes the possibilities of recording for me and i can't wait till they come out with even more. This is the start of something big for us music creators.

Totally transparent hardware-software-interaction
These are unique plugins, because (a) they sound extremely transparent, tube-like, tonally soft with a nice dark touch and (b) they interact with the analog mike preamp input stages in a way that the microphones seem to "see" tube hardware - impedance, headroom, even clipping behaviour ... absolutely great!

GAME CHANGER!
Since I downloaded them they are all I use! They sound like the real deal... huge! Can't wait for other favorite Mic Pres to come out. Fantastic work UAD!!!

Love it
Sounds just like its analog counterpart! I love pulling this up on my vocal channel and getting such a rich sound with just a few clicks of my mouse. Highly recommend this plug-in to everyone

Unison idea is so right!
I'm a Apollo user and I also owns a LA-610 and a 6176. The 610-B emulation is so good that together with the 1176 MkII and the LA2-A MkII Plug-ins I've just decided to sell both the LA-610 and the 6176. Looking forward to more Pre-Amp models to easily match different Micks with different Pre-Amps "In the Box". This is the Future!

Smooth the groove
The UA 610 Tube Preamp Collection, they work, oh, so well. Detail comes up front but, not harsh. Bottom end rich, they are easy to work with and create what the original would do. Everything just gets better. All I can say I use them all the time now and I'm loving what I get. Just really up my ally in what I want and enjoy in sound creation.

Lots of beautiful character
Man, you can really feel the "tubes" in these. Wonderfully colorful, and the Unison feature is very cool with my Apollo Twin! Simple straight-forward controls.

What a wonderful tool
This changes everything for me. I always load it up and see what it can do to a sound I plan to record.
I have a Fender Twin Amp with a drive channel, but it does not go that far when it comes to gain. So I load up either the A or the B version, depending on whichever I prefer for that sound. Push the 610 til I get the most wonderful compression that smoothes out a slightly harsh and incomplete guitar sound.
It's the kind of compression I have only experienced from an actual guitar amp, and have been hoping someone would be able to capture in a plug-in.
Here it is !
And the incredible fatness of the A-version eq, comes into use with this kind of amp too.
I love the way I can shape the sound for the better with this plug-in
