Amazing for my Home Drum Studio
This plugin offers amazing possibilities, and is perfect for adding scale to my 20 raw drum stems, which I capture, with 10 of them being outboard channels of Neve 1073 style preamps, for that analogue flavour. This pairs up perfectly with the UA Distressor plugin in the recording chain I find. But do love to mess with the compressor options within the Sound City plugin too.

Probably the best room emulators out there!
It surprised me how realistic and immersive this room plug in is. Its been a stable for my mixes recently. Especially since most drums I record are in a smaller, quiet room. Which is good, cause its flexiable, especially when using this plugin. Its very CPU hungry, but worth it. There are also a learning curve with it, but very easy to grasp when given the time. I’m excited to hear what new technology will bring us later on, but this is a must have right now.

Amazing but CPU hungry!
It's an amazing plugin, the sound sculpting possibilities are phenomenal BUT it eats CPU like a monster so forget about putting in on everything if You don't have a hi-end computer.

It was what I was looking for
When I was producing music and I couldn't get a sound source that I was satisfied with, I had half-given up thinking that I would have to buy a new sound source.
He was a savior.
It's the best.
UAD plugin is the best.
Thank you‼

Excellent Product
I've for years admired UA products but was never able to afford their hardware based products. Now that they offer software plugins, I'm thrilled. I recently purchased the Sound City Plugin and it is outstanding. Exactly what I was looking for! I highly recommend this product!

Perfect for small room studios.
Sound City is the perfect plugin for anyone like me, that has small drum room,(3x3x3), as dead as possible to avoid any annoying reflections, to add space and realism to your recordings.

Putting tracks in the same space
I bought this product in the midst of working on a country rock track. I record in a small home studio, with only vocals as audio tracks and the rest virtual instruments from various developers. I was curious if this Sound City Studios could help me put all the disparate sources in the same virtual space, while also fitting my specific song and recording. After experimenting with the plugin (mostly in re-mic mode) on a few tracks, I ended up going back to the original recordings for all tracks and using SCS to try and simulate all tracks having been recorded in the same space after initially using other plugins to remove the built-in ambience from my vocals. My PC is one I built back in 2014 and far from state-of-the-art, and I can only get a few instances of SCS operating in parallel, so there was a lot of rendering of tracks to audio with the plugin to come up with new "basic tracks" (i.e. the equivalent of what might have been recorded live in a real studio prior to mixing), but I feel the result was ultimately worth it, and I expect to use this quite a bit in the future.

Real studio sound
Provides a greater depth and definition to your mixes. It needs some practice to get the best sound from the room. I'm not a fan of using this as an insert as there's not enough control of the rooms parameters. I use it on Aux and Buss mainly, which allows you to place your drums and instruments back and forth in the mix. Previously I was using Acustica's Silver room simulator, which is good but not as sophisticated as this Sound City Plug in.

Low graphics resolution mode request
Sounds great, although a bit expensive on old 2015 mac. And it looks like the reason is the same as with Arturia. 4K graphics of interface?..or am i wrong? ...would be nice to focus on sound if thats the case though)

UNA VERDADERA JOYA DE LA INDUSTRIA
GRACIAS UNIVERSAL AUDIO POR DARNOS ESTA GRANDIOSA HERRAMIENTA.

Lovely sounds, please optimise for performance.
Easily would be 5 stars if it didn’t use all the CPU. Sounds amazing ok drums and even synths through the PA. Never thought i’d like the mic colouring hut they sound awesome.
Need a performance update, I lucky to be able to run 3 instances at once (Ryzen 5 3600x 16gb) Probably the most demanding plugin I have. Still love it.

Sehr gut! GREAT!
ich hatte leider noch nicht genug Zeit die Software im Einzelnen zu testen, aber mein erster Eindruck ist sehr gut.
Beste Grüße F.D.

空気感のあるリアルなルームシミュレーター
UADのルーム系はとても素晴らしい。capitol chambersもお気に入りだ。IKにもSunset Studioなどがあるが、UADの密度の濃さとは比較できない。
このプラグインは音の良さだけでなく、細かな設定ができる。しかも全てグラフィックで分かりやすく、初めて触ったとき、何も見なくてもそれなりに使えるのが良い。
唯一の難点は、プラグイン自体のCPU負荷が高いこと。音を考えるとやむを得ないのかもしれないが、この点だけが悩ましい。
