Master Tape gateway to the modern record

I love recording my out of the box mixes back in through my Apollo 16 printing the Ampex ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder Plug-In to the final mix. It sounds so much more like the records I grew up on.

finally

Not to violate any confidentiality agreement between me and Apple corp, I believe my audio drop out problem (re: my last post) is finally solved so.....I will give this plug a hearty 5 stars!

From subtle to over saturation it does it all

I've tried almost every tape saturation plug in out there, but this is the first one I have actually used regularly. From taming some high end, to really soaking up that low end, to achieving and old school tape sounding mix, this plug in gets it right with all the adjustments you need to get the sound you are looking for!

I loved it when I heard it working for about a minute

Whether it's the fault of Apple computers or UA , the bottom line is that my brand new iMac doesn't work with my Apollo Quad. A problem that has now for me been over a month with no solution as of yet. So.........I'll review this software and the interface when some party can get around a fix. I am not the only one who has been inconvenienced both financially and time wise by this issue and the fact that, to this day UA states on it's site that this unit is supported by the 2013 iMacs makes them responsible to a great degree.

Mastering with Studer A800 and Ampex ATR-102

These are REALLY great plug-ins as they confer to the mix a 100% wide and genuine analog sound that I had been searching for long. Using many sounds and frequencies, I need the widest possible bandwidth and footprint.
Check it out @ www.soundcloud.com/33vriem33.
The Studer plug-in has been used for mastering 'ROGUE', as the Ampex has been used for mastering 'SIMULTANEOUS MULTI MOVEMENTS BENEFITS'.
I hope you'll like the sound and result thanks to these magnificent plug-ins from Universal Audio.

HOLY CR@P

Can you say that here? Anywho, I was torn between the EL or this bundle and I will eventually get the EL but WOW. The Ampex on the Master Bus and the Studers where you need them (EVERYWHERE!) and there you have it creamy, warm, vibrant and pocketed music to my ears!! If I could afford all these plugs I would do it... I think thats how most feel about UAD plugs.

Ampex is Great

This has character written all over it, if you want to drastically change the sound, usually in a good way (depending on your genre) the Ampex is a great plug in to have. It will eat your cpu, which is always a bummer - but other than it is way cool.
FYI, I give honest reviews, some plug ins aren't worth it, but this one definitely is.
The Studer is it's little brother, a more subtle color in my opinion, I use one or the other for different things - nice to have both if you can afford them.

Studer® A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder Plug-In

Glue, glue and more glue! Sounds great... thick and full, like I remember 2" 24. I put it on all tracks and now my recordings sound more cohesive. This plug-in will get a lot of use!

Ampex ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder Plug-In

Glue, more glue and a punchy, sticky mix. Cool for tape slap as well. Bye bye Kramer - Hello Ampex! Love it!

Amazing

I thought the price was a little high for this plugin..... But once I started to use it in my mixes I could see why it held such a price tag! It's absolutely amazing! It just gives you the warmth that modern producers strive to achieve! I've not had the pleasure to work with the hardware, but this will do me.

Either on individual tracks or on the master bus... It's a gem!

Great work UAD!!!

Great tape simulation

Nice retro feeling! Glueing the mix when used on masterfader.

Sweet!

Warm and subtle glue mojo for your mixes. Slap it on as many channels as you can! I made the mistake of buying it with only a solo. So now I have a quad too ???? Might seem a bit much resource-wise but it's so nice it eliminates the need for a lot of my normal compressors and EQ. Can't vouch for it's authenticity as I never used a real studer but judged on it's own merits I think it delivers. The price may put some off but compared to the hassle and cost of using real multitrack recorders it begins to look a lot more economical.
I don't personally use it on busses - that's more of a dsp resource decision rather than a mix decision. I'll hopefully be getting the Ampex for buss duties soon ????

Highly recommended

Very impressed!
Ever since I demo-ed the plug in and after I purchased it, I use it in every recording and mix.

The price may be a bit on high side, but for those who know what a Studer® A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder was/is, what it means to recordings and what is its use, then any hesitation is gone, I guess.

Good job UAD!

Ampex ATR-102 Mastering

Having tried once this plug-in I understood that so didn't suffice to me in my mixes. That surprising character that adds this plug-in in mix. Everything that ripened somewhere at subconscious level, plug-in miracle was shown with acquisition of it. I like it and I go further in the searches, finding more and more surprising opportunities of this plug-in.

It makes sound better.

Slap it on the two bus and everything breaths and sounds better. I was reluctant to purchase this because of it's price,, but i'm glad I did.

It's simple to dial in how much you want a mix to glue together and where you want it to shift a bit of spectral focus towards, and since you have limited set values to each parameter, it's sorta hard to go wrong and easy to know which settings sound best.

Get to know it and it will work

Great plugin! It takes some time to get to know it, and at first the effect might be less obvious than you might expect it to be. But it is definitely worth it while it's on sale ;-)

The "Glue" Maschine...

Love this Plugin !! It gives me that "glue" to my mixes I've missed without using a real tape recorder... just set up a preset and the lo end is more tight and the top end is smooth ! Best UAD plugin I've bought so far...
