Instantly improved my mix
There is not much more to say.
Exellent plugins and the most analog warm and natural sounding ones i have.

"Oxide" your tracks!
I never expected that this type of tape saturation would give so much character, quality and also presence to the instruments respectively and clearly depending on how it was recorded and what is used.
With a few movements and depending on the results it shows, it is perfect to give it that "Presence" that we all seek quickly and to be as neutral as possible, although the latter one must "witness" it properly to understand it, at least in my opinion.
Without a doubt a necessary Plugin for any studio.

¿Need Power? Take it, Don't Worry.
Pultec, what you need to give it that character, precision and other functionalities, respectively.
Fully recommended for mastering, especially the "EQP", I don't really know what it has but it is very precise for what you use it for in mastering.
IF you need power, take it, don't worry.

WOW!! just wow!!!!
I'm not a guy that writes reviews, and don't get me wrong I love my other UAD plug-ins... Wasnt really expecting much from this plugin which came bundled with others I wanted. But to my surprise it is amazing, the clear vintage sound, the simplicity and great presets, make this a must! Thanks, UAD!!!!

Essentially, Essential...
This is a fantastic collection of real-time plug-ins. I have not yet used all of them, for example the space echo will probably be used in a song I'm currently working on, and it will be perfect! However the included preamps and EQs are invaluable, and I love that I can monitor in one, record dry, sample it in another, then decide which one works better. Or that I can monitor and record at the same time with the plug-in that feels right.
I definitely feel I have what I need, but I know if I need a particular sound, I'll feel comfortable purchasing new plug-ins because these are so well designed.

Can't live without it now
I didn't know that this plugin would become a staple for me when I bought it. Literally can't do anything without it now!

Hello,
all ok but only Galaxy Tape Echo and The Empirical Labs EL8 Distressor didn't appear in my ProTools 11.
Lexicon 224, and others, yes.

Conclusion : Surtout , ne jamais goûter à ces plugins UAD , c'est dangereusement addictif ...!
Révélation...! C'est vraiment des tops plugins...!
Compresseur Télétronix , Reverb de ouf , égalisation Pultec et d'autres dont un synthé , tous aussi incroyablement efficaces , de la folie...!
Aaahhh...je jouis...!

Fantastic & FAT.
Being a long-time Roland fan (I used to own a Juno 60) I had considered getting the Roland subscription so I could access any of the Roland Synths. But when I listened to this synth, I realized this synth was all I needed. I was rewarded even more once I started using it and going through the presets. I've already added it to my primary template for Cubase. As a a writer and producer I feel I found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

PolyMAX Synth
Loud / Clear / Versatile...comparing to an another virtual synth company from France, UAD Polymax has no artefact and no noise in its sounds.

Best bang for buck for authentic sounding plugins!
This is the first time I have purchased and started using UA plugins.
Nothing beats it. Just get it ASAP!

Essentials has a bunch of goodies at a low price point
Oxide tape alone was worth the price of this package of great plugins. Thank you UAD.
A. Grujic
Good sounding, trustful
Using it for a several years, very good choice for vocals

My favorite tape echo!
It sounds like a real tape with those pitch and glitch movements! I usually set the delay slightly to the left and the reverb to the right - this gives a very nice space to the sound. And since it can't be set to a very long delay, I put another plugin before it with an extra delay to achieve slower repeats. The sound is so real!

This compressor is a miracle!
I've tried all sorts of 20-knob compressors and finally the LA-2A sounds better again :-) It's been my favorite compressor for decades! The Gray version is my first choice for vocals and piano (usually after another quick compressor). The Silver one I use more for other instruments. And the LA-2 is very special! It's very slow, but if matched with some smoother instrument (synth or pad), the sound becomes amazing!
