Been looking forward to this!

I have actually just been starting with UAD plugins, but this is exactly the joy and sonic quality I was looking for! Purchased the API 2500 as well which I love already and couldn't let the Distressor slide. Good choice!

Must Have

UA's modeling of this classic piece of gear comes very close to the hardware and in my opinion is a must have for anyone serious about recording, mixing or mastering audio.

Compressor with attitude

I like plugins that have their own personality and sound. The Distressor is such a plugin. Having worked with the hardware version I must say you really nailed it

Impecables armónicos

Al aplicar distressor...se logran armónicos que empujan frecuencias fantasmas. Increíble

Bruh... Its a Distressor... Enough Said

You’ve seen it in the studios and you’ve heard it on countless tracks. I’ve used it in so many session but never owned one... UNTIL NOW!!! Stop playing and ad this your plug in library.

Greatest Tools for Musicians

These are the tools needed for musicians to make the art, without them theres no art
this plugin is amazing! in fact all the ua plugs are the brush for the artists.
Thank you!

Pushing stuff forward!

Works on so many things that need some grit, midrange or parallel compression. Some of the presets work very well also, on some vocals I worked on. It became a handy tool for me at once.
