I love the API sound more than any other. Although I can see an advantage to 'tracking' thought API and mixing /mastering thought Neve.

A legend!!!

Very nice and warm sound…so many options

Motown sound
Great reverb! Lots of presets to play with to get you started. I have visited the Motown Museum. On the tour you get to peek at the attic reverb. So cool that the software modeled the attic.

Love them
The new addition of a mix dial makes these even better and they were already the best.
B. Peker
Love the sound!
The synth designed very well. It feels like programming a hardware unit. I love the voice panning feature. Also love the sound. Totally recommended.

Dieses Plugin ist absoluter Schrott
This may (???) be a nice effect plugin, but has nothing (!!!) whatsoever to do with a real Leslie cabinet, of which I personally own and use two different ones for more than 25 years. The original ones do have a very mellow and beautiful sound if softly driven, but can go up to a very cranky, but still soft sound if highly driven. This plugin however only produces some highly distorted artificial sounds, additionally overdone by filtering. This has nothing to do with a real Leslie cabinet. And this is the very first UAD plugin I really dislike. Unfortunately I did not test it beforehand, but trusted UAD! I repeat, I strongly dislike this plugin !!!

Just beautiful
I was amazed how great this thing sounds. Being the proud owner of an original vintage Minimoog, I had the chance to compare and it does sound authentic.

Blend and warmth
An ideal way to blend tracks in a mix and make them sound rich and warm. I love the sound of Ampex 456 at 15ips. Back in the day, we used to automate each track to reduce tape hiss. I LOVE being able to turn off the tape hiss with the click of a button!

Perfect!
I love how this compressor makes vocals and instruments sound full and smooth in the most natural way. Perfect for vocals, woodwinds, bass, acoustic guitars, 'ukulele and everything else!

soooo close
as with so many ua plugins now you can not use them in console. this is the plugin i have dreamed about for years and it sounds fantastic. but, i hope with all the focus on native plugins they do not leave out those of us who have invested heavily in their awsome interfaces.

Great subtle, slow-acting tube-flavoured compressor
This is another must-have compressor. It does what it's supposed to do and sounds great. Slightly dark, if I might say so, but still, it sounds great.

Underwhelming & Disappointing
I tried this plugin for the first time and I didn't like the sound, however I tweaked the settings. I don't know if it's because I don't like plate reverb or because I don't like this plugin, but all I know is I simply don't like the sound. Furthermore, the UI is a little counterintuitive and doesn't resize/scale well on my display systems. I uninstalled almost immediately.

Great plugin, does what it's supposed to do.
This is an easy-to-use, great-sounding plugin that does exactly what it's supposed to do. It's a must-have compressor, and is super versatile, as it should be. I would definitely recommend.
E. Yeung
Simply amazing! Makes everything sound better and will smash your expectations!
I bought this plugin because it was on sale and I didn't know what to expect but I chucked it on, and even with this simple, 2-band EQ and 2 knobs for each band, it has the ability to make everything sound better. My mind is blown 10x over. It's insane. It's amazing. It literally is the only tonal EQ you will ever need.

Instant purchase
So today I tried the demo of this plugin and immediately had to purchase as the sound is just so warm and beautiful. I am happy to have that Moog sound in my new tracks. A nice discount was a bonus!
U. Juhl
Fantastic Sound
Easy and simple to use.
Good to make a room feel.
Or to make a clear tail to the instruments.

The GOAT
If I could only have one plug-in to use for the rest of time it's the blue stripe 1176 and it isn't even close.
H. Alfred
Great sound.
I'd written a 3 star review (that somehow did not appear), basing it on the notes hanging up. Turns out to be not the fault of the plug-in but my garbage midi-usb cable - those $15 jobs.
Seems to happen only when I plug in and enable BOTH the IN and Out plugs and go for polyphony. This all stopped occurring with a dedicated MIDI-USB box. It reoccurs again only when I use the cheap cable. The GUI and the sounds from this emulation are great and I'll buy it when on sale AND I have a coupon but admittedly is a tough choice as I don't really need it. My keyboard/synth has convincing built in sounds and I also have two great Leslie pedals. But still, this is too nice to not have for when that 60lb keyboard isn't with me.

the best you can do to your tracks, try the demo !
took me some time to decide to get this one, got the demo, checked it out -and we’ll, won’t miss it anymore. So bought it. It makes an even phantistc sounding dry synth come alive, the effect is widen the signal and also to make bass sounds more compatible with small speaker systems. Same with other signals. Very well done clone off the original I‘ve used on several productions back in the 80th. Great job UA !
