Ampex is a wonderful plugin!

Ampex is a wonderful plugin! I recommend to use it on the bus and on individual tracks. Ampex with SSL mixer makes it sound alive!

Magic plugins

I have both the Studer and the Ampex plugins. Both are amazing. Just slap it on the master bus or the drum bus or the vocals bus or any other track. Both plugins have a tendency to "center" the sound, clarify it and make it sound more "record". Maybe it's time to get the third tape emulator?

Great tape sound

Just put it in the insert and you've got the great smooth sonic sound of tape.

Subtle but nothing like it.......

So many have tried to emulate the distortion and compression effects of tape eg. the Emperical Labs Fatso but I must say this just nails it! I love slamming this with drums and just hearing the effect it has on the drum sound, want that Tame Impala retro drum sound? You need this plugin! I have compared it to Slate and UHE and this wins, it just sounds so natural and responsive- fantastic job UA, a triumph in digital engineering- it is a great time to be a musician.

Freaking awesome! Demo at your own risk (you WILL buy!)

I've been waiting patiently to get this plugin, and I finally had the opportunity (see funds lol) so I did. All I can say is WOW! I am so impressed by the sound that it imparts to the music. I should've gotten it sooner, but I went and got Slate VTM a while ago, and while I still think that's a good plugin, I did some comparisons to the UAD Ampex and it is so much closer to a real tape machine. You can hear the saturation when you hit the tape hard and the resulting sound is just like I remember back in the good old days when I used to overdrive tape. Beautiful sound, easy to use, and very deep if you want to get into the nuances and settings... Get it now! I'm going back to mixing!!!

Great 4 Drums

I love this plug in. I use it when I mix and master, sometimes it's to rough on the low end when I master, but overall a wonderfull Plug in

Spoiled for choice

UAD has given me so many flavors of tape and I find each to be really useful and great for explorative sound sculpting. This deck has found a happy partner in my Tom Oberheim Two Voice Pro. From chugging basses to twinkling tenor range sequences, this deck really allows for a high degree of sheen and shine. I can get each voice to settle down nicely in the mix with this. Great plugin.

I can always find a use for this

Be it degrading the signals a bit to achieve a more lo-fi grunge, to getting psychedelic with the wow & flutter, this tape recorder lives on my busses. I've always dreamt of having my own reel-to-reel, but this has filled my desires completely. I love that it can sound beat up and grimey, or pristine and warmth. I really appreciate the fine level of controls it has (for instance, being able to turn off noise/hum and recording more pristinely) and I've found this plugin greatly rewards experimentation.

amazing control

Extremely versitle. Overbiasing and sync eq. Just amazing that such a complex network of electronics can be not only modeled but controlled via a gui. Wow

Let's be honest

Ok lets be honest, in my case I don't use it like they say to... I prefer a clean mix verses the dirt that everyone is trying to recreate in there mix, so with that being said. I use this plugin very lightly just to bring a little more of the low-end out on the master, because it seems to get lost when mixing different projects. I enjoy the way it glues and gives a nice harmonic saturation to the record so check it out..

Is this worth getting into the UA2 ecosystem alone?

Is this worth getting into the UA2 ecosystem alone? Well it costs considerably less than the real thing, you can have many of them working at the same time, trying to fit multiple Studers in a studio, let alone a home setup is going to be painful in more ways than one.

And then there's the impression that I get that it just sounds RIGHT. Unlike a lot of tape emulations! I can't quite explain it, it's sometimes quite subtle differences, but long listening you just don't feel it's artificial, or an EFFECT. It's tape without the tape.

I like IT!

I don't know why people say don't use it on the 2 buss. Some songs it works great on the 2 buss and some it does not. Main thing to tweak is the low end going through it. I have starting just putting it on a buss and dialing in how much I want of it on each individual instrument.
